More like it

Just what Agar needs, an experienced number no.2 from the NRL. Very pleased with this appointment.

Couldn`t agree more Paul, as a coaching team we are pretty much inexperienced, an experienced assistant from the NRL can only help us going forward.

Less cuddly in this one

Excellent appointment.

Manly are one of the most forward thinking clubs in the NRL and will stop at nothing to get the most out of their players.

Can only see this bringing the club in line with modern techniques used in order to maximise performance.

then what are we wasting our time with Agar for then? Wigan have taken a risk with McGuire, Why shouldn't we with this Moore bloke. It's not like we can get any worse.

Agar rightly or wrongly had his critics last year and I was one of them. But the guy has continued to make impressive decisions this off season. He has obviously been man enough to acknowledge his own areas of weakness and has made some astute moves to assist him with his own development. This is panning out to be the most impressive off season I can remember at the club in a long time. At last, we seem to be forward thinking and not burying our heads in the sand.

The very least fans can give back is our full support to Agar. Yes he has had a tough 18 months in the hot seat, but he seems to be equipping himself with the right tools that will help him succeed. Let’s wipe the slate clean and give him our full support for the new season. If after a the first 8 to 10 games things have not improved then I am sure Agar will be shown the door, he knows this but is standing up to the challenge imo. It would be pointless and childish imo for fans to continue to wish for his head over the off season and going forward into a new one, especially with the impressive additions we have made both on and off the field.

Good post, couldn't agree more.
We are a club in transition and Agar seems to be leading us in the right direction this off season, just hope he can deliver on the pitch.
Effectively he could of hired his replacement!

Can't argue with that

As most will know, during the recent fans forum Agar made a HUGE play about the amount of injuries the club have had over the last two years and what a massive negative impact that had. I agree with him about this one hundred percent but after watching some of the most one dimensional rugby I think I have ever seen last season and some of the strangest tactical team management he does have to hold his hand up and take some of the responsibility for that. He really needs to up his own game for next season and not just rely on the players he has brought in. I heard a rumour that he didnt like his recently departed assistant taking to the changing room floor and over shadowing him. Lets just hope he is more accommodating to ideas and advice from Mr Moore.
I dont mean to Agar bash as lets hope those days are far behind us. Like most supporters, although last season is still in my memory It doesnt hurt half as much now its all over.

Has this moore fella been confirmed?

I didn't even realise he was catholic?
