Dear God Ted. Fielden? Hock? Lockers? He's been here 3 years. If you had your way he would be here 20 and you would still be making excuses for him. He cannot coach. He cannot build teams. Deacon, Smith, Elliott, Jennings made Bradford.

Amos Roberts - Top try scorer one season. Averaged over 50% try scoring ratio.
Tim Smith - Dally M Rookie, 40 assists in 1 season, touted as the next Johns.
Phil Bailey - Ex-SOO and Australia player.

Mark Riddell was highly rated too.

Ah yes but with Mo we got the best !

Martin Offiah, Gene Miles, Brett Kenny, John Ferguson,Hanley and he wanted to sign Wally Lewis.The list was endless of great players.

Look at this sorry lot we have signed now.

Smith and Roberts never played Rep football. That says a lot. Secondly, Smith's well reported mental issues are clearly still troubling him which are outside the control of Brian NOble.

Bailey only played SOO because of the woeful injuries suffered in that season. He is a very good player but far from a 'top NRL player'.

He got selected for Australia after that series too.

Injuries or not, he must have been one of the NRL's top players to gain selection.

It's obvious.
