You don't think any players improved under bomber?

mcrae was the last decent coach we had. Put in the correct structures and brought in players who fit his way of playing at the right end of their careers.

No surprise that the youth system has gone to pot since.

10 years since we produced a home grown 1/2 back capable of cutting it in SL
Only regular members of our pack who came through the ranks are houghton and radford (who spent more time in bradford's ranks anyway)

Our team is pretty much made up of over the hill aussies/british players and cast offs from other clubs

Brett finch

hull and wakefield ahve made an offer for next seaon according to his agent

Wigan looking at him also.

Lets not fook abot like we did with Dobson and Monghan, just get him signed for next year, would make a massive difference to our squad.

That'll be our dynamic board that will have to act quick then

Don't think so, Horne and Cooke are possibles I guess, tbh I can't remember that far back in great detail about the players who came through under him. I do knwo he had some of the best ever squads we have had in SL with some genuine world class players yet he never quite delivered as he should have done and people were of the opinion that we needed a change in coaching personal as Bomber had taken us as far as he could.

My recollection of that period was that we had lots of injuries (I know, I know) to key players. We still had an exciting squad and played some of the most entertaining rugby of the modern era.

Where's it say that ?

catalan interested looking at the aussie press

His subsequent coaching record suggests otherwise. However we were half decent to watch thanks to the players he did bring in that had some flair.
