Looks a decent coach,the only thing that worries me is that we may only sign 1 more player on top of those already signed,is this bloke a miracle worker because he will have to be if we only sign 1 more player.

What I like about this guy already from his interview with hdm he isn't building up our hopes and saying we wanna be top two or grand finalists next season we know things ain't gonna happen over night,maguire and brown were pretty unknown as was Justin so let's hope for a grt season.

Maguire and Brown had a decent pack of forwards to start with though,we haven't,not many of our forwards would get in a top team,i'm all for a new coach(been saying it for a season and half)but you have got to give him something to work with.

Nathan Brown had been the Head Coach at St George, how's that "unknown"?

Was he ok wat bout Trent Robinson

Isn't that why he has been brought in for the youngsters and we don't know what player he wants to bring over he has got one in mind and paea is no pushover were not gonna get miracles next season but prob the season after might see positive changes for us.

Trent was with Morgs at Toulouse before going back to Oz. He was assistant at Sydney Roosters before getting the Catalan gig.

Ginge, do you still think it was all a "done deal" before the board went to Oz?

No I don't now am surprised at the signing but rovers have obviously done they're homework and I believe in them so I'm happy with the signing I just hope Craig don't get a bit "cocky" can't be avin that. I like that's he's watching every DVD of last season poor bloke I'd be sleeping on a flight

I like it.

We need to build a team based around youth as part of becoming more self sufficient. If the Knights were confident enough in this bloke to essentially entrust the next five years of the nucleus of their team to him, that's a pretty ringing endorsement.

Next year is a rebuilding year, although it would be not a whole lot of fun, I'd be prepared to finish outside the play off's as long as Sandercock is putting the processes and systems in place for the future.

Welcome aboard.

here here g'day and welcome to east hull craig

Good luck to him

I suppose next season could be seen as a transitional one, and if so – it’s important the fans remain patient.

In all truth tho, I'd be surprised if we didn't finish in/around the play offs next year. We've still got a decent team and if we have a full season from messrs Dobson & Green I see no reason why we won't be able to finish in the fabled ‘8’ or above.

Where has this info of only signing one more player come from? I would assume we wont know if it's going to be 1 or more until the new season starts.
