Which is why he would be a quota player. The Scottish heritage doesn’t matter. Look up the rules and get back to us.

He’s none federation trained and can only have 7 I think so would count. Doesn’t matter what the passport says it’s where did he start playing rugby.

Yeah the Samisoni Langi Link makes no sense unless we are losing Tupou who has a year left on his contract. Doubt he’d leave without a decent pay off. We are paying big bucks for Tom Lineham as well so i’m very reliably told. Have we got a secret investor all of a sudden?

Again, signing players in positions we don't need, if true.

Quote: PopTart "I've never said he does deserve one. I point that out every time you and Scar make that point.
All I'm saying is if we change it has to be better than what we have and I don't agree with Scarlets assessment that just because Chester doesn't look as happy as Scarlett wants him to be he isn't a good coach.

I agree with the points made that our structure isn't as good as it has been and we are no always performing to our full potential but i don't put that 100% on Chester's shoulders like some of you do. Injuries, Covid and individual player ability has affected that a great deal.

When people are down on Chester they point to Watson or Powell as shining lights yet they are suffering exactly the same way when they have injuries or covid issues.

Its just a difficult time for the club, and rugby league in general and I think just getting through this period the best we can is what is needed and then regroup. More upheaval will not benefit the team unless its to bring in someone who can manage the team in this current climate better than Chester.

I assure you I'll say goodbye to Mr Chester if we are bringing a JD or Craig Bellamy or even Nathan Brown but not for an assistant coach with no experience or an equally failing SL coach who will just recruit the same old fringe players or a successful SL coach who was only successful because he had money......which they won't have with us.'"


I admire you for coming out with your points at long last for reasons for your unwavering support for CC who has clearly displayed that he is NOT a good coach. I even agree with some of your points, PT .I personally have never said that it is purely down to him and him alone for the pitifully poor displays whilst under his tenure, but unfortunately the coach usually has to carry the can. My greatest fear is of an extension of his contract.

Quote: vastman "Simple questions.

Have you ever run a pro RL club? If not how do you know what you claim to know? You don't, you're so full of poop I can smell it from here.

How do you know the players don't admire CC? You don't, as ever you're just guessing to suit your sour agenda.

If they admired AK so much then why did they get him sacked, what a ridiculous man you are at times.

The only person talking tosh is you, You are an armchair expert who's never seen the club's balance sheet, never been involved with the current team at any level. You have no idea as to the long-term plans and aims of the club. In other words, you know nothing and I don't need to e-mail Michael Carter to work that one out.

Whatever flaws exist in the abilities of both MC and CC, when compared to you they are a lion to a flea, in fact not even a flea but a flea bite. Get a life and stop pretending you have any idea as to what's going on behind the scenes, you don't.

The only way you could impress me or make me change my opinion of you is if you were to buy the club and then run it to the standards you require and by doing so visibly improve the club. So what's stopping you? Put your money where your mouth is, I believe it's still available for a pound.
The players he brought to the club didn’t get him the sack!

His record as Head Coach on the day he was removed from his post was played 7 lost 4 won 3 and they had just beaten Salford away from home.

He resisted some of the ridiculous signings that John Pearman made and in doing so fell out with Pearman who then undermined him willingly aided by John Harbin

I was there, argued with Pearman about it and called John Harbin out face to face over his actions! I also stood up at a supporters meeting and called out the whole BoD over it.

So let’s not rewrite those events just to make a point to another poster

I’d say wing is a position we do need. If the Lineham rumour is true then I think he’d be a very good signing for us.

TJ, Kaye, Kershaw, Tupou, they've just signed a lad from the U19's, how many more do we need?
Unless CC is planning on playing Lineham at prop, he's a player we don't need to be spending on.

Personally would prefer players who come on board to look at our club as a step up in their development and not a final swan song .Lineham was a beast a few seasons ago but has gradually faded to the point that he is past his sell by date and is being put out to grass by the wires . Doesn’t seem to be a scramble for his signature and could imagine his face when told by his agent that we were the only bid on the table . We have better in our squad than old Tom and it would be a travesty if he replaced any of our incumbents who have shown their commitment to our cause. Yes he’s got the experience but has he got the hunger to come on board and propel us forwards ,I’d say no , but I'm willing to be proven wrong .
