I agree with the sentiment of having experienced assistants around a rookie coach. Browny was on James Graham’s podcast pretty soon after he got sacked and mentioned his next career aspiration was to help a young coach come through. If we do in fact go for a Ryles or Young type we might be a good chance of bringing Browny home too.

I dont mind your picks, I think though if Ryles has been targeted for Melbourne then we have no chance, they usually tend to get what they want, unlike us. Anyway who ever it may be then good luck to him, he's going to need it.
What’s patently obvious is that Hook has lost the dressing room‘There’s three strikes’: Tallis blows up as ‘telling’ Griffin comment reveals Dragons’ biggest problem

Tallis making sense.
Agree and sometime ago
What’s patently obvious is that since Bennett no one had had the dressing room
Holy shit.. I've seen you carrying the bag for Griffin in here for ages now, but this is a "jump the shark moment". You have lost your mind
Cant say I agree with you on this one OT, if the coach has lost the dressing room its on him, take 2010 when the Storm were playing for nothing after being stripped of everything early, Bellamy still got them to win 14 games that year. It would have been quite easy for the players to lose focus but Bellamy wouldnt allow it. You take our fiasco after BBQ gate, how well did we do there.
Yes, but the Storm players got several year's pay-in-advance, which is the reason they got stripped.
Agree, but the point I'm making is, they had nothing to play for that season but Bellamy still had them pumping.
Bellamy has his teams pumping 98% every year. Even during times of bad injuries and players playing representative footy, he was able to get his players playing Storm footy which we know has been successful for decades now (well since 2003). Even though they won the wooden spoon in 2010 because they were not given points for their 14 wins that year due to their salary cap breach from 2006 to 2009, they still put in. To me it shows that the Storm players have a very high regard of Bellamy as a person and coach. Never has been any talk of him losing the dressing room that's for sure.
As an old broken down coach myself you didn't do a bad job with your analysis, impressive. A coach has many jobs identifying and developing young rising stars within your club is important. It's not easy to tell one of these players what is required to be developed so they can play 1sts and be the best player they can be. So it's important that a coach have good communication skills both talking and listening otherwise you have a situation our club is now in our rising starts being dissatisfied and dissolutioned by the way the coach has handled and progressed them and this means that we are unable to retain them. The success of any club or team on a consistent basis is the retention of local talent and the ability to recruit the players needed to compliment our own talent. We do not and have not had that basic foundation for the last 10 yrs in my view
