Should the Dragons sign up Joey Johns as a part-time assistant coach

[possm]

Johns is now talking to Manly regarding an assistant coaching position. Manly are looking to replace a full time assistant coach and the Dragons really need to do something with the team's attacking style and in particular with their halves.

Signing Johns as a part-time assistant coach might be a great step in the right direction for 2013.

F*ck yeah. He'll be able to teach JT heaps when he arrives next year and then if there's an injury in the halves, he'll have Jennings ready to play there if need be.

Would you commute from Nth Beaches to the Gong? Neither will Joey.

 

[Godz Illa]

What happened to Pottor?

 

[God-King Dean]

Can he play halfback?

 

[Hutty1986]

What happened to Pottor?

How about a Pottor-Johns tag-team coaching combo? They could both wear tuxedos to training and f*ck shit up

Is there any proof anywhere that Johns has even been successful or liked or helpful as an assistance coach/mentor?

Besides making Tahu upset what is there that says he would make any kind of difference?

As brother Matt said this morning on mmm,he doesn't think the Manly supporters will be happy by the appointment.I know tongue in cheek but Joey should stick to sideline commentary,his coaching hasn't helped anyone.

What happened to Pottor?

Potter has been appointed as the Roosters NYC Coach for 2013. Taylor is now assistant coach for the Roosters NRL side.

Case closed!

This is'nt good at all with Tim Sheens, Potter, Bellamy, Folkes, Steve Price & now Johns all part of our coaching staff next season this will surely cause some tension to many cheifs not enough indians.

 

[64 Dragon]

Possm won't mind. He dreams about that every day!

 

[Slackboy72]

Another grand idea pulled out of possm's arse.

 

[Guvner]

God no.

 

[Crescent dragon]

We weren't even interested in him or no mention of Johns has been made until its in the paper.surely that says something. Either he doesn't rate or wearer just clutching at straws. Who next? Brad Fitler!!

 

[Coffs dragon]

Joey could help the team with his experience in taking it to the line and our speed drills...or he could just do the lines of speed himself. No thanks !

Meanwhile, I think a thread should be started on every coach, assistant coach, or part time assistant that may or may not be available to come on board at Saints. With any luck we could have 100-150 threads going at any one time on the issue.

I nominate possm to be the thread starter. Any one second?

 

[64 Dragon]

God no!

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

God no!

Lets concentrate on getting a half back first......even a part time one will do at the moment
