does anyone like Ando :?
Everyone was saying the same thing about Brian Smith when he was here. Saviour one year, dead beat the next.
Other than Wayne Bennett, who doesn't cop it from all angles ?
Peter Sharp - Roosters. (reported in the RLW)
* I have heard on the quiet that things aren't that rosey between Sharp and Ando.
Sharp's problem is that he always wants to be a head coach but hasn't been any good at it.
DA mentioned that Sharp was not our defensive coach, he oversaw the whole lot and fix issues, he clearly failed this task.

Wow, he's a big guy.
Do you think he is definitely signed with us?
He would make a handy replacement for Origin/injuries.
I've added Reni Maitua to the confirmed signings list, because Jodeci's info is never wrong, but I don't think I will add Chris Feather to the 'confirmed' list until a media report comes out about it.
Also, anything interesting people have heard?
I'll add David Stagg to the 'rumoured' list, but I hardly see that (the signing) happening.
As always, thanks for the info guys.
Also, apparently Quade Cooper is now very likely to sign with us, but we will have to wait and see (I still think it probably won't happen).
Reni may well sign with us but he hasn't actually agreed to terms as yet, I'm hearing that he would prefer to go to Melbourne but our offer is too good to refuse atm.
so where has this Quade info come from??
Correction i told you grothe was signing for us on the day he signedYeah I guess, maybe it's not a good idea; especially if it turns out to be wrong....
However, Jodeci, even from my limited experience on this forum, has never been wrong; she was the first to report the Horo and Grothe Jnr re-signings, and I'm positive she announced us signing Carl Webb.
