Coaching preference for 2024

[barry]

Hasler for mine.
Think there is more of an upside to an experienced premiership winning coach.
Would like to think he would also be more of an attraction for bringing desperately needed new blood into our club.
Would also like to see Scott Fulton join us as the new recruitment manager.

It taken the bulldogs 10 years to recover (they are still not there yet) from the mess Des Hasler left behind.
They couldn’t wait to sack him, even paid him out. Same thing with Manly, not even the pride jersey debacle could save his job, they too were happy to pay him out to move him on… hell they even hired Anthony Seibold to replace him !
I can’t take a coach that considered Aiden Tolman the best prop in the game seriously.

It's probably Hornby, Id say... Coming from the Rabbits who are flying...

 

[Crush]

Haha, 8 people said extend the current coach?
Explain yourselves!

Flying with Souths players, not Dragons plodders, plus I would say the HC is slightly different.

Just a thought if we want something from left field, why dont we get the Walker brothers as interim and see what they can do over the rest of the season and if they work out well, keep them there as AC's.

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

I'll start by saying its obviously the right move sacking Griffin .......BUT !!!!!!! there's a lot of stable clearing before weve got the right livestock in place......put it this way I sincerely hope we are making some progresss this time next year...don't want to appear negative but most on here will be buoyed by the imminent appointment of a new coach but we would be foolish to think this is going to be a quick fix.....first thing this club has to do is find its SOUL again then everything else should fall into place one way or the other

Worth a try I guess. Not too sure though what they have been up to lately.

A poem

A forum rumour went around
Ryles has the gig
Someone’s mothers second cousin
Said its going to be him

While in the taj this evening
Drunk as I could be
I overheard sowies ex
Saying “Hornbys gots the gigs”

I heard the poker machine going off
Five Marys in a row
I checked to see what it was paying
The gambler said it must be broke.

Hooks slumped into the corner
Staring into space
Ben is passed out next to him
Matty Elliot sober but off his face

Lomax is parked out on the road
He’s banned for one more day
But given his nsw cup game just past
He may have a longer wait.

Exactly this.

Although the demise of Griffin is imminent, it's going to take a whil3 to rid the players, and I mean ALL the players, of the current ideology.

New coach. New ideas, but they will take a while to implement. Even having an interim with their ideas will cause some confusion at first.

It just won't be the quick fix some may think.

 

[justadragon]

I will give all my support to whoever takes over, I understand there are no miracles, but i would like to see steady progress with us for 2 seasons and begin to be very competitive after that. Meanwhile for the rest of the season, I want to see the harnesses and shackles come off, I want to see good attacking footy and an improvement on defense. But most of all I want to see some pride and an enjoyment for the Red V players and supporters. Put a bloody smile back on our faces.

These same words were said when Hook took over
We won 4 out of our first 5 in 2020
How did it all unravel...

Yes mate I agree....and let's give the kids a proper go and not replaced by used by journeymen

 

[Jersey No 14]

The Walker Twins. - until the end of the season.
Let’s see what you’ve got!

Hook gained traction.

So you want them to move to Wollongong for a few months?

If true the race is back on ...... Coaching preference for 2024
They straighten up for the run home and it's Ryles by 3 strides closely followed by Hornby on the inside , a further 2 strides behind Flanno and Des , Hook is gone , getting close to home , Hornby closing in on Ryles , Flanno and Des closing the gap its anyone's race , but down the outside , coming from nowhere , it's D. Young they hit the line , and...

If they want a shot at coaching an NRL side and think they have something to offer, then yes.
