Even if he did have lapses in defence , we never gave him much time at all . It seems to be big on D as St George footy , we are struggling in both D and scoring points so we turn attacking players away like Garrick and Dufty that can turn a game or us , and shaft them ..... It's like we are oozing with game breakers.........
Should have worked it out by now must be asleep when they go over the games video. Mary "Euan see that when you and the winger slide in it creates an overlap". Euan "Sorry coach I'm asleep". Mary "ok when you wake up we will talk about change of plan we will slide out".
Mary , you incompetent idiot.
Does the Board even read articles like this. Our clueless football staff namely Mary and Millward have been stuffing up for years but still remain employed. There is no accountability at SGI for the Board or management staff.

Some on here put forward the idea that Millward and Mary work together on recruitment. Garrick moved on because he was not wanted by Mary or Millward. Hasler on the other hand could see the talent and value in Garrick. The rest is history.
Same thing! A decent coach would have recognised his talent and made sure Millward sealed the deal.
Mary was a great right hand centre but a usless coach. Just look at Aitken our right hand centre for the past few years and it says it all.
Millward was specifically appointed to his current position - official reason being Mary could not coach and spare the time for recruitment/pathways/retention duties. Unofficially it was because of a backroom old boys deal.
