Assistant Coaches Sacked

[Old Timer]

Brandy knew we had a problem with defence and that we need a good coach so he rang Albert and told him he had been keeping an eye out and having done so recommended Steve Linnane.

How much for the bridge?

You don't want it if its to do with the club , Its a Bridge over Troubled Waters

 

[lynx000]

I think you guys should have a crack at Josh Hannay, word is he is tactically great and a good coach.

 

[justadragon]

How about Adam O'Brien and Justin Holbrook, they will be on the hunt for another gig soon )

I've got the solution Bring Back Mary ......

No, his influence seems to be making an impact at the Eels finally.

No, his influence seems to be making an impact at the Eels finally.

And let it remain.

Better still, he should take up a consultancy role with numerous clubs. If he gets to 16 next year, we're favourites.

I dont know Illusion, there is always that something that quite doesn't feel right when you have a premiership winning AC sitting next to the struggling HC, is the team the real benefactor ???

Definitely wouldn't mind Josh Hannay. He is very clear and concise with his talk etc, but I'm not sure how we can get him if he is under contract at the Sharks and of course under Fitzgibbon who is doing a reasonable job in his first year as head coach.

No great loss as both our defence & attack is bordering on shit.
The broom needs one final sweep in my opinion and hook the Head coach.

Can’t imagine it will be an existing assistant coach. None of the assistant coaches at clubs doing well will leave for the same job at a club going backwards

Wouldn’t be surprised to see a certain ex-Bronco… or two.

Yes, because hook always says you cannot have enough ex-broncos in the joint.

 

[KogarahWarrior]

its probably not the answer to our problems completely but its a good start, any sort of structure that allows us to defend and attack better than what we have is an improvement

And in addition, it proves that Webb or someone up top is being somewhat proactive

I think Willie Talau should be considered for one of the assistant roles, he has been looking after the Jersey Flegg side for a couple of years and I hear the players think a lot of him and he leaves no stone unturned in preparation for games. Not a bad record also. Others cloer to the players may have some input ?

The description of Talau appears the same as the description of Matthew Head a few years ago.

Dragons part ways with assistants as finals battle looms

Mathew Head and Peter Gentle are set to depart St George Illawarra at season’s end as the Dragons face an uphill battle to make the NRL finals.

The board and HC are the problem. Instead of addressing the real issue, the board makes the assistant coaches into scapegoats, and pacifies the fan base and media with a promise of change.

The board aren't going to sack themselves any time soon and most fair minded supporters are willing to give the head coach some time in my experience.

It's not a full blown revolution of the club but most pragmatists can see it's a change worth making at this point in time.
