Quote Donnyman="Donnyman"What a daft thoughtless comment. It's so easy to kick someone when they are down.
Has it not occurred to you and all the others slagging Noble off that he had the very hard job of[uPLAYER DEVELOPMENT & RECRUITMENT[/u
Has it not occurred to you and several others on here and most of TotalRL.com that the Wolfpack failed to stimulate any junior of grassroots Rugby League in Canada, despite them climbing the league ladder here to the top division. It's no good talking about 25 years time when there is absolutely zero interest in RL in Canada and Union have every rugby loving Canadian kid tied up except Ngwati. There is no work to do for Nobby simple as that.

Congratulations on getting the words WORK and NOBBY in the same sentence.
He works so hard for Toronto that he is able to spend so long with the BBC.
He is a favourite with the RFL that whenever they speak to 'wealthy' new club owners - he gets the gigs.
Moss and Roberts at Crusaders,Wrexham.But leaves when it seems they aren't spending any money.
Koukash at Salford - then,of course,Toronto.
His ability for player recruitment and development shown perfectly while at Salford.
He recruits Smith from Wakefield and Chase from Castleford.
He releases Sneyd and Fages - these 2 go on to Finals,and silverware at Hull FC and St Helens.
Smith and Chase succumb to alcohol and other drugs.
Toronto happened to sign lots of players from Leigh,as Rowley was head coach,and it was McDermott who met with and signed SBW.
Noble,while with his friends in mainstream media,talked about turning grid iron,and other athletes,into rugby league players.
It,and he,don't seem to have worked.
