Just a thought ...

I see that St Helens coach, Ian Millward looks to be on is way out with likely replacement being Daniel Anderson (next Kiwi coach is ????).

Highly unlikely to happen but I'd love to see him here at the Warriors.

Question marks still surround Tony Kemp. The club has given him plenty of support with players, coaching staff, improved facilities etc but the team is still not performing consistently.

Still early days but would he have survived this far if he was in UK soccer or RL??

 

[Skinner]

Yes - interesting developments at Saints. Ian is a coach who certainly
gets results...but I could see a major personality clash between him and
M Watson.

Millward likes to run his own race...not toe the party line 8)

Cheers

Boring speculation.

Perhaps, even though you are only a far, you could try set a precidence and back the team with some positive affirmations mate.

No more Aussie coaches please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ThrashViking]

And what can a New Zealand coach offer that Ian Millward cant?

The Warriors are in the top eight! With a different bounce of the ball here and there we could easily have 12 points an be right at the top!

Second best defence in the entire NRL!

I think the coaching staff are doing a reasonable job. Leave them to get on with it.

We have enough cooks for my liking. I think people hate on Kemp unnecessarily and he needs to be given a fair go in order to let him get on with the important job.

I don't even wanna know about any other coach, the horse has bolted on that one so lets focus on the now.

I love the Warriors !

They are a great team and always perform to the best of their ability.

Last season was a great year and with a little more luck we may have finished 12th.

Um ... it does not concern me if they do not play to their potential

If we were 15th and looking like shit then fair enough to look at Millward. But we aren't.

"What can a N.Z. coach offer that Ian Millward can't"

"Jeez, you nearly had me there."

" O.k o.k............What can a Aussie coach offer that Kempy can't"

"We'll take a break and we'll have the answer at the end of the season.!!! "

I pretty much agree. Even though I dont agree with some of Kemps selections, I actually prefer the style of football we're playing this season to the last couple of years. Its more structured, we're fitter & the emphasis in defence is on making the tackle as opposed to putting the big shots on the opposition.

 

[Iafeta]

I don't know necessarily if results this season have paid tribute to the massive improvements Kemp, Cleary, Campion, Iro and Ackland have made.

* Second in D this year
* Completion rate dramatically up
* Best go forward in the game

Its really tightening finishing games off by completing great positions by scoring tries. And I don't think we're that far off that too. For mine, I like the style they've introduced and can see a really good, solid season this year which will rebuild confidence onwards beyond 2005.

 

[mahanga]

There have been some great individual brilliance but I dont thnk that is part of Kemp's game plan,He is looking more of a team effort at the mnoment.

Once thats in place then perhaps more tries will be scored.
