Total Apologies! that should have read players currently playing!
If you watch the 2 hour DVD of Tom being asked about our great game, it shows what an ambassador he is and is still alive and proud of RL as shown in the recent SA Tour matches.

| On this subject of the statue, Stevo always gets it wrong and I think a few on here do as well, the statue is not to honour KC personally it is to honour the club, if you have a look closely Keiron's name does not apear on the statue just the words THE SAINTS

They couldn't afford an independently audited phone line, they certainly couldn't afford the bronze for three players

| Quote ="FearTheVee"I know where you're coming from, but to play devil's advocate . . . .
Vollenhoven played 417 times for Saints, KC has played 504 so far (according to Saints Heritage Society)
Vollenhoven played for 11 seasons, KC has played for 17
Vollenhoven was South African, KC in a St Helens lad
Vollenhoven is all time top try scorer, KC is all time top try scoring forward
Vollenhoven won the league championship 2 times, KC has won it 5 times
Vollenhoven won the challenge cup 2 times, KC has won it 7 times
Now I'm not suggesting Vollenhoven shouldn't have got the statue (he was my vote) but it's not as clear cut as you might at first think.'"
Nail on head.
How people can claim KC shouldn't have been the choice for the statue simply because he is still playing is beyond me. His record speaks for itself - he will absolutely be held in the same esteem as Voll, Murphy, et al.
A club legend, whether retired yet or not, and worthy of all the plaudits that come his way.

| Keiron deserved it because old rugby was utter rubbish. In the olden days people couldn't run properly. People ran like they were tickertape animations and were even black and white in some instances.

It's a good job you didn't take up the Meninga bet isn't it? It looks as though I was correct after all, or has Meningas agent told you something else.

I'm willing to give him his fair chance, he's got alot of experience, but i will be underwelmed if he is announced our new head coach. That said i was when we took on Millward from Leigh, and he did alright

Tis a bit underwhelming, but the ABP* mob will be pleased.

That clearly shows you depth of rugby knowledge, even though it was not my era I am aware that you do not get wingers these days like Tom or Bevan at Warrington, they were real speed men, perhaps Albert was the nearest. I Rate Paul Wellens more than KC, Paul is a gentleman and has been a credit to the club and game, most people outside of rugby league only know KC for the disgust expressed by Mail readers about his gun shooting! at least people outside of the game know of Vollenhoven and Murphy for example for what they achieved. The vote is sounding more and more like X Factor and that is a joke at times.

I don't think that mob exists.
The mob who have not been happy with a lot of what has happened to the team and the way they have played (and still play defensively more times than not) has existed and still exists. But just because people don't agree with one coach does not mean they want any old body to replace that coach. I certainly don't. I've never heard of the latest guy as he was around before my time but from what people have said he does not sound like a very good option. Hence, although I have not been happy with Potter I don't want worse than Potter. I want better than Potter.

Rather than just trying to be clever with insults! read what I stated, that many Daily Mail readers only know KC from the many letters of disgust at his hobby with guns! I did not express this as a personal opinion, though it is something that I would get no joy out of doing.

| To add to the above:
There is a shortlist of four for the job, all of whom have been formally interviewed. One of these is a 'preferred option' of the chairman but he will not mention any names as you would expect.
Live on GMR now if anyone wants to catch it.
