Grima v Rea : Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:50 pm  

Has much changed since the mid season changing of the head coach??

Re: Grima v Rea : Mon Jun 23, 2014 7:57 pm  

Players beginning to come and go.

Press conferences conducted in plain English.

Weather much warmer.

Caoch and players putting themselves out to link in with local community clubs. Hosting coaching seminars and other workshops. Confidence there is some planning going forward. I'd say a big improvement.

Small steps but they seem to be positive ones.

Totally agree. It's too early to hail Joe a success but he's doing a lot right off the pitch. Broncos now have to cut their cloth and that means working with community clubs, providing a good pathway for their best. Those who don't make it at Broncos feed the other southern teams, everyone wins. In return they feed their better youngsters into a higher standard of RL.

Tony was a lovely bloke but focused on a team not a club and / or the sport down south. He'd be the wrong man for where we are now.

I think the comments Tony made that London didn't have time to develop Sean Morris but that he'd play Superleague this season says it all.

Agree with everything said so far, younger players seem much more settled, okay disappointed how much closer they are getting in games, but they seem happy with how matters are going.

Agree fully with this.

(My earlier reply was rather flippant, apart from the reference to plain language in press conferences.)

Sweet love all apparently! 60 days off this forum and the attempts at positive spin continue to abound. Rock bottom, nil points and assured of second grade sport next year......lipstick on a pig springs to mind.
BTW.......where are all The lapsed posters I was assured would return once my negativity was gone?
Pathetic turn out at the state of irigin event last week, few attendees at this weeks supporters get together......collective masterbation at the announcement of 3 teenage signings and benign acceptance of the loss if our most potent strike player mid-season.
