Neil Henry - the new Matt Elliott?

[TheDalek079]

Does nothing in Canberra. Does nothing at North Queensland with a quality roster. Titans look worse now he's coaching them


How does Henry keep getting offered coaching positions?

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

To be fair, I don't think there is a coach on Earth that could make that Titans side look good. Not even Bennett or Bellamy.

But yeah I agree, he is a bit of a Griffin esque dud

 

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

yeah henry sucks ass. guessing he keeps getting gigs based off him being 'the brains' behind qld in their dynasty.
but i mean, hagan is now supposedly the tactical genius there, so maybe it's just a case of mal revving them up and saying ok boys go win the game.

I bet you could do a decent job IBM with your in depth league analysis.

Still stalking bro. I told you I don't swing that way.

 

[RWB]

With all due respect to Canberra, Nth Qld and Gold Coast they're all low profile jobs out of the eyes of the Sydney and Brisbane media. That's probably how.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

He actually did a pretty decent job in Canberra

 

[Hello, I'm The Doctor]

He had a good run at Canberra didnt he....

 

[nick87]

I think he's a good coach, he did a pretty good job at Canberra, i think there is some external factors up in Nth Qld, that being the inmates running the asylum up there, and inspite of that, they've been a few refereeing blunders away from "who knows what happens next" territory and the Titooons are just a f**king wasteland, he hasnt really had a chance to make his mark there

Had no idea Mr Anonymous was female.

Just assumed male given the "Mr" in his name.

Live and learn.

He's at least made our attack more exciting to watch than Cartwright did through his whole career coaching us. But Henry has had a tough year to contend with so I'm willing to cut him some slack.

a) the roster he inherited by Cartwright & Searle
b) the amount of cap space sitting on the sidelines for the second half of the season
c) annoying drug scandal
d) the loss of our recruitment boss


Combine that with players who won't even be here next year:

-Taylor
-Falloon
-Redman
-Tighe
-Sezer
-Myles
-White

While we're at it, let's get rid of some more dead weight?
-K Gordon
-W Zillman (who BOTH were resigned under Cartwright and both still being payed overs for)

What I can't defend is some of our recent signings though. Shillington is rubbish compared to a lot of young forwards coming through the grades now, Friend is 35 years old, Tyrone Roberts has about 2 good games a year, Ash Taylor has only played 25 minutes in first grade (willing to give him a chance though).

So while there are signs of a cleanout it doesn't look as if we're replacing any of them with any marquee signings. :/

Annoying drug scandal! Super frustrating I know, why can't players be left alone to do what they want. Annoying indeed

 

[Tenacious Titans]

ffs you know what i mean, it was huge off-field distraction for us, Henry was hardly to blame for it.

 

[jason taylor]

Cherry Evans reneging really ruined his recruitment strategy it seems. Damien Cook is off contract, yet they opted for bringing back Nathan Friend for a final season. It will be interesting to see what the Titan's lineup for round 1 2016 will look like.

 

[Jason Maher]

Have you seen the Titans roster?

 

[Edwahu]

Getting 9 wins out of the Titans is probably as hard as getting a minor premiership at the Roosters.

 

[gUt]

Holy shit an actual Titans fan in the wild.
