Hi Guys, I come in peace not sure if you have seen this but on the sky sports website but if you read the peice on the NRL round up there is a comment that Toovey might be in line for the NSW blues coaching role next year. Be a bit of a move up from Championship to State of Origin.

Not trolling but do you think Toovey is up to SOO Level?


Yes he is. It has been a baptism of fire for Geoff Toovey and with the right selection of players - playing against similar grades of RL he will be fine. He didn't stand a chance with young players against seasoned players - loan players who were taken back at crucial times and a 12 pt deduction.

I don't know why we are asking this question, because he will leave no matter what is posted

I definitely think he has the right attributes for origin. Lets be honest if Walters can get the Queensland job after his time in Catalans Toovey certainly can

Have you seen his record at Manly in the NRL? Of course he's good enough for Origin. NSW have appointed far less experienced coaches than him up to now. What had Laurie Daley done to get the job?

Slightly puzzling question, to be honest.

I don't think there is any question that he can guide a top quality side to victories - that is clearly something he can do very well and indeed, already has. What he's not done, so far in his career, is get a very poor side to play better or even improve slightly. Agree that it's been a far from easy ride at the Bulls, in fact it the been the sort of job I wouldn't have wished on anybody, but he accepted it and unsurprisingly, as I it would have been an extremely big ask for anyone, he hasn't covered himself in glory. That doesn't reflect even remotely on what he does best, imo.

What's gone on this year is irrelevant to Toovey's CV, even JC wouldn't have prevented us from being regularly crucified.

Would be useful for turning the rain at Odsal into Beer though. And feeding the 2,000 crowd with the 4 packets of crisps they stock behind the bar.

He's good enough for Leeds to trust their 'future talent' with and lets be fair, the job he did with Lilley he was asked to repeat with Aston.

I hope he stays.

Whether he is the right man is not the question anymore I am more interested in how long the owners allow the situation to drag on.
