when are they supposed to be annoucing who our new coach is then?
we all know royce simmons seems to be the favourite...but is it signed..sealed..delivered yet?

It is Royce Simmons. Trust me

Well bang goes my hope of it being Mal Meninga!

I'd rather it not be.

Tough, it is, so let's give him all our support

He has all mine!

He's not the coach I'd hope we'd get but he should be given time.

Still think Jason Taylor is the man we should have gone for.

Hmmmm.
Suppose you are right; no point pre-judging him. Its just that there seems to be a deep sense of unease when his name is mentioned.

For me he will have to prove himself before I give him all my love and adoration. Sorry, I mean support. I will sit on the fence and wait and see, just as I have done with every new coach.

You have least apt name on here ever

Has Jason Taylor actally signed up for NRL or is he still available.

What has Royce Simmons done, apart from be available, to justify his selection for the role one wonders?

Okay, so it's probably not the best criterion on which to judge a coach but what a name - Royce! He SOUNDS a winner......

All you need to know [url=http://www.nrlstats.com/archive/coaches.cfm?CoachID=212here[/url

The 41% win rate doesn't leave me flowing with confidence, but I'm not gonna shoot him down before he's starting. Give him a chance I say, starting with who he recruits for next season.

I can't imagine we'll be bringing too many more in, if any at all. Youth policy all the way, especially with reduced income next year from being cuckoos in the nest, so to speak.

Officially, we've only signed Perry. So that leaves us needing a quality centre, prop and winger. With Wigan bringing in 3 quality imports, I think we need to recruit to keep in touch with them.

All I said was I'd sit on the fence and wait and see, just like I always do. How the feck is that a comment on my supporter rating? That's the approach I take to everything.

Do you think Emmitt will be given a prop spot next year?

I don't think so. I don't think he's quite ready to play in the first team week in week out, but then again he isn't ever going to be ready if he doesn't get first team experience. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

McManus confirmed a few weeks ago that we'll definitely be bringing in more faces for next season. I'd expect another 2 or 3.

That's reassured me, let's hope these signings are confirmed in the not to distant future.

A bit left-field but, now that [url=http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/league-news/embattled-stuart-jumps-ship-seven-weeks-early-20100720-10i2u.htmlRicky Stuart has jumped ship[/url, could Harry "leave by mutual consent" as suggested elsewhere and Ricky Stuart hide from the Ozzie media in St Helens? Coincidence?

Must confess I'd like to see him given a go.

Sounds good until you read the almost Potter-esque comment, "I just feel I can't get that extra bit out of them at the moment," Stuart told News Ltd.
