| That's why it's much easier to be a forum owner/coach/chairman - because you can make wild proclamations about anything you fancy, without any regard for employment law, contracts or the actual real life people you're spouting about.
With all that consequence free fun to be had, anyone who would want to do it in real life must be a little bit radio rental!

Probably just as well, after all the negativity that we've just had the last thing you need is a dose of that ultra depressing pile.

| They should bring back the U21's never been a lover of the dual reg thing, but understand there is a cost to running what is effectively a reserve team like U21's

Yes I know but a proportion would be better than nothing.
As far as having no dual reg agreement, I didn't realise that, sorry.
In all fairness DC this is a rugby league forum and I think its fair game to pass comment on the ability of players providing it sticks to that. I also think its OK for humble supporters to express their views on such matters even if they are not a coach or have never made a living out of playing.. We pay to watch so why can't we have our say ?
Last but not least Vince Mellors had contract length the same as Foxy and we got out of that so it can done.

| I'm ok with Foxy. His mistakes are more evident than most others because of his position but on balance he gives the team a lot.
He doesn't let 2 tries in for every 1 he scores as some say.
Comparing his mistakes to his try rate is not a fair comparison.
His work getting us off our own try line is up there with the best which in the long run saves tries by relieving pressure or saves the forwards work so they can do the hard work in the middle or often sets up our next attack.
He's not perfect but I'd rather work on fixing up his frailties than knocking his confidence further.
He isn't guaranteed a place but we haven't got any better right now.

I'm not against passing comment. I've always been open to solutions I may not have seen. Hence why I asked the question.
I will defend the players we have though. And if he's good enough for Danny k, he's good enough for me.
And we'd get about 20% of a players wage in loan payments. When you have a thin squad to start with, I think this is a very risky call.

Jeez - so now I'm not a supporter and I said he let in 2 tries for every one scored!!!
I am not for packing off players, but I will stick to my assertion that he is fallible and was poor for much of last season.
Merry Christmas!
