Sezer has landed

Was fortunate to get one of the player's telephone calls yesterday evening (Yusuf Aydin) and he said someting very similar. Recalling how Aydin impressed me with how he threw himself into every game last season, I sense that those type of players will revel in Cartwright's approach.

How the bloody hell did you heel a divot in that concrete never mind hold the ball up to kick. West Dock Infants year 1958

Oliver Holmes in any training footage?

The guy who wrote the book on man management was Roy Francis - Smith was not in the same ballpark.

Smith was fairly successful in Aus but was also known as the coach who never won anything in spite of having some great teams (like Parramatta). Had 4 goes at winning GF's and lost all four - hardly a messiah.

Very successful at winning wooden spoons, however, with 3 to his name,

I haven't seen him but I think the Leigh boys were given an extra couple of weeks off due to Leigh being in the playoffs. I think Hardaker started this week. Asiata is getting a little bit longer.

Yeah still not seen him and he hardly played for Leigh at the end did he?

He didn't play the 2nd test for Samoa but unsure if due to injury or just decided they wanted a different player in. The t sta extended Gia season by about a month so makes sense if he's having a rest.

No I mean Holmes

Holmes was in the minutes silence huddle on rememberance day but I've not seen him in any of the training clips

Saw Asiata in the gym this morning. Getting some miles in those legs and the. A couple of sprints.

Blokes in fantastic knick and in gym at 6:00 am. That’s the sort of attitude we need. Ligi, Abdull & Ese’ese are the only other players I regularly see putting some graft in.

Rapana on his way

only two not training are Fash and Litten, Rapana and Asiata arriving soon but must admit not seen holmes on any footage
