| Quote Exeter Rhino="Exeter Rhino"Yes, but it is easy to say that with the benefit of hindsight. In fairness to McNamara, that first bunch of players all had the potential to be good signings, but it is also arguable that most gave better service to their previous clubs. It seems that he was the wrong coach to bring out that potential.
It remains to be seen if Potter can succeed where McNamara failed (after all with the exception of Elima none are currently form players in SL), although his experience with the Catalans does suggest he has been able to do it before (especially when you consider how Walters failed with a more star-studded playing roster).'"
Indeed.
In addition far too much emphasis is continually placed on the coach rather than players themselves reacting to opportunity. The "batch" mentioned above failed to reach their potential or deliver. Not always the fault of the coach, they simply didn't man up.

No, sorry I'm lost with that one!!
Btw, re Billy Vague, am I the only one who can't get used to his conversion from comedian to politician? When he used to be famous before, he was constantly telling jokes, and at times was almost funny, but now he tries to be serious, and I'm still waiting for the punchline which never comes............

You said the person who gets you most excited. I guessed at Billy Fizz.
His voice hasn't broken since his speech at the Tory conference aged 15 months.

Errm, not exactly tt. The OP mentioned [isigning[/i so I restricted my answer to that. Anyway, you really don't want to know who [ireally[/i gets me most excited............but it's not the tonsorially challenged, smug, windbag  .
