Thoughts ???

I'm sure



a) saddo already made the recurring and amusing Royce Out thread

b)Saints provide him with a perfectly good company car

yes, we've lost a game so we should sack the coach, probably best to get a full new board of directors too

Not a good start I'll say that. Had that been Millward and we'd been losing to Wire, he would have walked on the pitch and poked Morley and Briers in the eye, ran off down the line slapping the hands of the Saints fans and 'done a Mourinho' when we'd scored 3 in the last minute to win.



Royce I feel is pretty much ignoring the present and focusing 100% on the future. The post Eastmond and Graham era. The new stadium era.



I reckon the Mac will have said to him that this season is to try things out while we're out of town, make a few decisions on targets for next season and build for the 2012 season. By then we'll have Cooper Cronk and Benji Marshall at 6 and 7 with Perry and Adam Blair in the front row.

Corrected

I have a few, but even as a Mod, they may be pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable on here.

Bad mistake from Simmons to criticise Arnold, all feedback should be within the dressing room, I think RS was trying to divert attention away from his (apparent) own lack of ability to coach the side to play any kind of attacking rugby, didn't bother watching the second half, stats on sky at half time said it all, Breaks 0.

Oh go on, do tell. Towards whom is the anger to be vented? The club, the coach, a diminutive scrum half, our Captains? Do tell.

He didn't. He said he hadn't seen the incident but that all things should be done as a team. Kyle Eastmond has subsequently apologised on the Saints website so I think he was fully aware of how poor his behaviour was.

Probably us lot on here!

Well it wouldn't be me of course. No one would survive that, the public backlash would have drowned them like a tsunami.

I think you should read the information given on page 331 on sky text, Headline "Simmons criticises Eastmond" No mention of our lack of ideas to breakdown a defensive line, all about Arnold and how he should disclose what he has (or maybe has not) decided. Diverse tactics as far as I can see.
