Hagan came through the coaching ranks way to quickly, and it really showed in his coaching. He has always had the luxury of having a great team, and it really shows in close matches how ordinary his coaching is IMO.

Taylor is definitely a better coach. I would predict Hagan to be out next year.

 

[strider]

well yes, I can see why the newcastle fans keep thanking us parra fans - I mean it definitely is all our doing - I think in the future all newcastle fans must owe us each a beer to truely express their thanks

 

[Frederick]

Don't thank us for brian smith, thank the dragons for making 450 mistakes!!

Dragons made 11, as did we, so your point fails. Try again plz

I remember Manly thanking us for Michael witt just like this, could this be something similar?

Nah. Unlike Michael Witt, Brian Smith knows a thing or two about rugby league ;-)

Don't forget who showed Witt the door... and copped enormous flack for it from Parra fans at the time.

Nope. We won without Johns AND Buderus. First time we've won without both of them in 10 years. So yeah, it is kinda a big deal, dipsh*t

good, so why are you wasting our time? Im really sick of talking about past players or coaches tbh. You got a win, go and celebrate. But just remember, This is Brian smith we are talking about, there will be a time when you will pull your hair out about why you got him. Untill then celebrate.

 

[Y2Eel]

Why are the knights fans in here shouldnt you be bagging the Dragons after beating them geez!!

And thank them for brian smith also... they let him go aswell...

* All we have left is stars that are older, Ie Hindmarsh and Cayless just like Kenny and Sterling in the early 90's.

* Our best juniors are being courted by other clubs, like Mateo. Penna and Jason Bell were in the 90's

* WE have pinned our hopes on a maligned 5/8th, ie Finch, Speechley in the 90's.

* Our juniors are perhaps a little overrated just like Mahon, Crnkovich, Muchmore and Erickson were in the 90's.

* We are on the cusp of a massive spending spree just like we did in 96.

More simply, and more importantly: No Brian Smith.

Did we ever win a comp with Brian? NO, So instead of telling us how much you love Brian why don't you just get a room with him. Then you can tell him in person. BTW is was a pretty sh*thouse game of footy.

 

[Twizzle]

lets see how the Knights go in the last two games rather than the first two games, not really big achievements so far

 

[Parra Guru]

I find it strange that the Knights think they're hurting us by taking Smithy. Incase you guys didn't notice we had him for 10 years, and we didn't get a premiership. We had Smith for too long, and whether or not Hagan wins us one in the next 3 is irrelevant, because it is the change that was more important for us.

I don't give a sh*t if he wins one for you guys or not, I think he's a smug bastard and their are nicer blokes around, but seriously, how did you guys get the impression that we care that much about the Knights results? You seem more interested in coming in here and talking about the Eels. Go and talk some footy in your forum or in your grubby stadium.

 

[El Diablo]

Newcastle could go undefeated all year. They still will never win a GF with Smith at the helm.

 

[parra pete]

Brian Smith will be great value for the Knights. They have picked up one of the best coaches in the business..
He over achieves with teams rather than under achieves and he is showing that with the Knights at present. How good is Kurt Gidley playing at the moment?
Brian has the ability to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

 

[El Diablo]

:lol:

Bit overprotective aren't you. :lol:

We can talk footy wherever we like - and we're more than allowed to talk about the Eels in the Eels forum with Eels supporters if we want. If you don't like it, you leave.

 

[Bazal]

I love the fact that the same Knights fans who carried on about Smithy last season, suddenly love him...Ahh the joys of blind bias...

But you don't seem to realise that no one here is actually interested in talking about Smithy and the Knights

I dunno why this garbage couldn't wait until we play eachother instead of now.
