Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Good player though.

Yeah when he's on the field, but I doubt Adam will be able to change his tackling style

 

[GCfan]

Either option is very good.

Paws can you see Morris having pulling power with players though? I can’t. Might be a good development coach but whoever we sign is going to need to put some class and experience around the youth.

drinkwater is next origin. we should have nabbed him

Just my opinion but I don't see Ciraldo coming to WT. I'm not sure how to read him but I think he either doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to make the jump from a successful understudy role or has a big ego and thinks he's worthy of a top 4 coaching role. Either way he doesn't come here.
My guess would be John Morris.

Any team in the top 4 are not looking for a new coach!!!!

He's always had the smarts hey, this is a good year for the young fella.

Mate....I hope the tigers get up for ya this week.

Or Campbelltown kids. Imagine how many Falou’s, Tedesco’s and Hayne’s would be running around. Criminally under utilised.

Ciraldo obviously has pulling power in the rich Panthers' juniors. Morris I am unsure about.

pulling power is not as important as tactical skills. seems too many emphasis on how likable a coach is to the players. we get eggshell experience

Thougths on Jayden Sua? Don't know his contract status but what are contracts these days. I give it some thought. Jeez Sharon really should retire, what a mess of a player.

Teams sign players not coaches. No established player is going to say oh I want to play under this coach. It’s oh I want to play with this team. And the carrot is their likelihood to be successful individually (rep honours) or collectively (in finals contention)

I don’t see it as how likeable a coach is but more how appealing it is for a player to want to come play under the coach, often as they see they will improve under the coach. Madge seemed to struggle in that area so would be good to have a coach that can get them here in the first place.

I don’t think there’s only ever one motivation for why a player signs but i firmly believe a coach can be a deterrent, perceived or otherwise.

Keep your fingers crossed @851 but I've got a feeling Your Mum will get a lot better as you are getting and giving her the best care.

I like the look of the m/bike in your photo. I rode a 650cc Yamaha touring type bike about 20 years ago. Still got my bike/heavy rigid licence but havent ridden a bike since selling my Yamaha.

Just started riding myself. Glad we are starting to get some clear weather.

It might be true for a young player breaking out and trying to make a name for himself, it might be important for them to learn more skills to improve their game, and for that to be successful a relatable coach helps.
Not for an established star though. Do you really think seasoned players go to the Roosters and Storm to play under their coach. They are going there coz they have the team to win it.
