I still love him. He was pure rock n' roll and he LOVED the club to death. People shouldn't forget what he achieved here, he's always welcome for me. Good luck to him.

well said.

people are quick to dismiss what he actually achieved at the club - and how well loved he was at the time of his sacking.

I wish him nothing but success at Leigh.

Thanks v much for that, he was amazing in his reign at your place and I think the majority of your fans recognise that.

He has got a job on his hands now but if anyone can turn this around for us ......its Basil !!!!

I wish Agent Millward the best of luck, he brought me so many memories that will last forever like the Wide to West, SL trophies, CC trophies and of course that game at KR that ended 75-0.

Best of luck Basil & Leigh.

He is a legend who ruined his copybook with the last few months of his time at Saints.

But surely you can see that it was his will to win and do right for the club that caused all that? I doubt there has ever been a Saints coach who wanted to win as much as Millward did. For an Aussie he was fantastic in that regard. Now we have had 2 coaches after him who look more like poker players in comparison.

Not really, it's quite possible that it was because he's a cock (I've never met him so can't comment either way).

It was a fantastic time to be a supporter of the club though, I doubt we'll ever see a time like it again.

Saints and basil we well together and he brought good attacking rugby back to saints.

We was always good to watch and he had a knack of knowing how to win big games.

I think basil going was helped by a top coach in DA coming in and putting defence into the team.

All in all I still like basil as we won a lot of finals with him.

Towards the end he'd lost that knack though.

Controversy or not, I think it was a good time for him to move on.

70-0 away against leeds was deplorable.
