We'll never know how much input Henderson and Briers put into the tactics/playing style with Wire. It does seem that the way were playing is greatly at odds with how Henderson had London playing prior to his departure to Warrington. Also, Smith always said that he didn't coach the attack and left that to the players. You'd have thought that Briers would have had a say in how we attacked, but he also had M Monaghan, Hodgson, and (for a considerable amount of time) a big dominating pack in front of him. I'd be surprised if those two hadn't voiced their concerns on our playing style to Price, at some point over the past couple of years, but maybe they just ran with whatever Price wanted. Henderson looked like a SL coach in the making while at London, and must be a little disappointed not to get the head coaches job with us. Good look to him with the future, as I believe he has a lot to offer, at least, in the higher end of the Chasmpionship, if not SL. Not sure what Briers has to offer, as he doesn't have a track record as a head coach, and can only see him as an assistant, or other capacity, going forward. All second guessing, and it will be interesting to see who is appointed as Powell's assistant and other backroom staff.
