| Quote: Marsdengiant "If you need to pretend HKR made bigger improvements 08 - 09 than the Giants then go ahead.
I am used to the excuses offered for the Giants improvement (the opposition played poorly / did not turn up is a very popular one).
The jounalists who make the decision on coach of the year almost universally predicted 10th/11th for the Giants. Some said HKR would be in the GF (they may be). The Giants have far exceeded the judges expectations so Nathan is in a strong position.
Feel free to come up with further reasons why someone other than Nathan should be coach of the year.'"
I would go for Brown over Morgan (assuming we don't get to the GF!), but his acheivements look so much greater due to the fact that Huddersfield had such a dire coach last season and were under-performing for most of 2008.
Tony Smith could get a look in for finally gelling Wire into a team. |

Thats exactly what I meant.
You were also a typical Brown team in the final, choked, completely.
Ive already stated, depending on how they deal with the first couple of weeks in the playoffs it should be Kear for what he's done with that paper thin squad. |

And yet when we got to the Playoffs in 07 everyone was saying we had overperformed.
Brown only made one real signing thisseason and that was Todd Carney. All the other players were brought by Sharp and had been signed prior to Brown taking over. ( we had been after Hodgson for two years).
Brown has taken someone elses team and with very few of his additions has made them into a very good tea.
The best example of his coaching is the league table. Look at the points conceded column and that is wher Browns coaching shows up. |

Brown himself says that Anderson does most of the defensive work...

I'd suggest thats because of two things.
1st, he is looking to keep good ties with the people he employs.
2nd, he says to fatty "Do this, this and this" and fatty waddles over and does what Brown told him to do. |

And Huddersfield yet might! they stand a as good a chance as anyone.
Tony Smith to Leeds from a top 3 side to a champion side....
Nathan brown isnt far off from taking a bottom half side to a champion side in the same amount of time.

Tony Smith season in charge)
Hull KR: TOTY (constantly consistent throughout the season and making steady progress up the table)
Morley: MOS (runs his blood to water with every performance for us and deserves this achievement)
Tomkins: YPOTY (although he's a pesky little **** he has been the stand out young player in super league this year

Who did he beat? It's not like he trumped Saints or Leeds. Brown is COTY or Morgan not Smith. |

Just on Morley....
Who is the f***ing idiot that says "Nah, its ok Adrian, carry a few extra KGS, its good for you!

True enough, although I don't think you could rule out Noble or Kear with the same proviso. |

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

As much as i'd like to see Kear get it for keeping the Wakefield team together after the loss of two team mates i think Brown has done a superb job at Huddersfield
