If it is Smith it "could" give us all a massive lift like we got when his dad and Matty came over. I wonder who his assistant would be. I find myself thinking it would have been good to have kept Diskin as his assistant as I am not sure about Chev at the moment.

Fingers crossed we get the right man as Green and the club may not get another chance if this goes wrong.


I'm hoping Matty Elliott and Brian Noble have sons who could take that job on.

I'm pleased it's Smith - I'll be happy if he's selected his own assistant, whomever that may be.

So I asked moley if he'd heard anything last night:

So now I'm hyped. If it's not Smith after all this, I want a lifetime ban for Whitcombe! :wink:



Would be buzzing if it is Smith. Exactly what we need.

He is highly rated in the NRL and comments like Moley's seem to be the norm. This is the NRL we're talking about too. Standard of training is a different world to Super League.

Remember how carried away we all got before Mathers was announced?

I won't let myself dare to dream anymore!

Re: New Coach poll : Thu May 05, 2016 12:23 pm  
Well a new coach is a chance for the club to show a statement of intent. If they go for a top draw name or a name with grand association to the club's history then it can reinvigorate the fanbase.

However, on the flip side if they go for a cheaper, unproven coach it does seem that they're waving the white flag as far as promotion is concerned

I think the supposed candidate is a bit of both.

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

It certainly looks like RedBull will have a RedNeck and a RedFace after being certain it was Elliott.

Welcome back Matthew elliot and Leon pryce..


And

You shall see. Both announced within two weeks.


Then

Again. You shall see.


Consistent...

Why are you busting my chops?!!!? I'm only sharing some insider information with you. I thought that was the idea of this forum. I won't bother in the future.


Insider information??

Mathew Elliott. As I said two weeks ago.


Sack the insider!

Let's hope he doesn't bother us again. Anyway, nobody will believe him.
Just keep the above quotes and bring them out each time he says something.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.

Re: New Coach poll : Thu May 05, 2016 3:54 pm  
Why did Elliot stand at the club and announce "tomorrow"? What does he think is happening tomorrow? Can he prove that tomorrow will actually happen? This is a joke & a disgrace. We deserve to know the truth!

Waiting for an announcement...

Members only email incoming at 8.55pm. New coach? New scrum half? Or just a new promotion?
