Secret or not, I think it's a great appointment. Sure he will do well for us.
I know he has no hands on experience as a coach but plenty as a playe for some quality clubs/teams

Roll on next season

He was U 20's coach, whilst acting as an assistant to the first team. He's a good bloke and will do a good job for you guys.

Any idea where this leaves Tony Drury who was assisting Beans?

Nice bit that Glen mensioned the memories of playing us in his first ever match for the bulls and in england, the cold muddy friday night when he thought why the hell did he leave Australia.... Ha. Well a new era begins......

well its been a long long time since i left the stadium feeling so excited about the future
this afternoon as various rumours had been bounced around on the mill,i felt sorry for PB
who i thought had done a fantastic job with his 3 game stint,and a change in the team was evident and i would have been
happy with his appointment as new coach.
but after hearing a young coach keen to cut his teeth at head coach level,the excitement felt in his voice dismissed any doubt that this was a wrong appointment,this is a man who has close connections to more than one super league club & respected highly by fellow professionals thoughout the game.

as i took my seat and expressed my disappointment of some players who have lacked loyalty back to the club to GFDU
his reply was ''there is no loyalty in rugby league'' my reply ''well there should be'' within seconds in was announced by mr sawyer that james craven had resigned on with us.

personally i felt a sense of proudness & honor that a young lad with a big future in the game wanted to play for his hometown
club regardless of so called bigger teams throwing stupid amounts of money at him.
WELL DONE & LOTS OF RESPECT TO JAMES CRAVEN !!

next up is mr steve crossley now of featherstone
today i called steve a judas for taking his 30 pieces of silver,but after hearing tonight our chairman explain what went on with steve & what featherstone had thrown on the table to pull him away,this is a young man with a great future in the game
and also a young family so mark advised him to take the deal because he would be silly not too,and mark wished him well
and asked supporters to do the same as in reality he didnt want to leave,so with that

STEVE CROSSLEY I WHOLEHEARTEDLY APOLOGIZE FOR MY COMMENTS THIS AFTERNOON

so welcome aboard glenn morrison and i hope you show everyday the excitement you showed this evening
and im sure every Rams fan will give you their full & relentless support.


now finally the question of player loyalty
directed as 2 individuals in particular to the first next time you need to prove a point to a team you never wanted to
leave in the first place...dont use their near neighbours to highlight the point because basicly you make yourself look
a bigger **** than you orginally was specially when those supporters took you too their hearts.
and to the second player,disgusted with your lack of respect & lack of loyalty to the club & fans who stood by your
in your low times,thru injury & law breaking (alleged) you have to live with your actions,where as now we move on and forget,only to remember 3 times a season when we play you....where im sure YOU WILL GET IT LARGE FROM ALL AT DEWSBURY....fans wise that is

this appointment has the ''coolie seal of approval''

well done mark sawyer

coolie

He hasn't no. He said his shoulder is bad and it wouldn't let him play anymore.

Glenn came across well seemed a decent bloke will be good to see what sort of team he puts together. While its good news to have signed Glenn , but on the same day to have lost 3 of our best players is abit of a blow. Can't fault Steve put in 100% and will probably get back into SL.
I would like to thank Mark for his efforts , you don't realise until these meetings how much time and effort goes into running the club. He probably doesn't read this forum but he deserves a big thank you.
