Saint Toppy Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 19 hours ago, Oxford said: Marshall? I did say that on here 2 weeks ago. He's too good a coach to just be an assistant (all be it an assistant who's won back to back SL titles). At Fax he's shown what he can do on a limited budget and a squad made up of a lot players discarded by other clubs. Marshall is very much in the same mould as Watson.

Could be seen as a sideways move by "some" but I don't think so, given he's ready prepared for a lack of huge budget plus having been at Saints. If the candidates list was accurate SRD are attracting quality these days, and it's not on the screen saver. 2 warning points Non-Political Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blues Ox Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I think this would be a bad move for Salford. A coach not willing to make tough decisions is not what Salford are going to need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleep1673 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I wish Watson all the best, he turned a mediocre Salford XIII into a mediocre Salford Team. I wish him all the best at a very mediocre Huddersfield. I wish his successor the very best of luck, because they will need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK. You might need luck though in finding as good as someone, and as dedicated as Watson to be the new coach. Ah, Australia here you go, again.

I would've agreed with you about dedicated till not so very long ago. Well 1 of the three candidates is an Aussie so you have a 33% chance of being correct! 2 warning points Non-Political Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxford Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I came back to this thread because it's an ongoing story. This may only be rumours and fans feeling a bit on edge. The stories are emerging that the Giants are making bids for Tui and Yates. It's not that I'm angry with Watto for signing them, nor that this would weaken our team whilst strengthening theirs , that's just part of how it works. But it struck me that if SRD do badly because it will appear that it was only and solely because of Ian that we did compete and do quite well, and that would be a bit sad. It would be a shame for all the effort made by everyone that contributed to those things. I know it way it goes but that doesn't mean we have to accept it totally. 2 warning points Non-Political Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches even these days when it seems like they all read the same book "A guide to game plans and tactics" have favourite player's who they are comfortable with to carry out their instructions on the field, they will strive to take some player's with them along with other *backroom staff, I remember only to well all that time 49 years ago Alex Murphy leaving Leigh for Warrington he took half off the Leigh team with him. I see that the conditioner Greg Brown is following Watson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid it may be another complete loss of spine and rebuild yet again which will make it more than difficult just to maintain what has happened so far.

All off the top of my head, so no guarantees, but... of the eleven clubs we know will be in Super League next season (ten if you allow for Salford being minutes away from financial meltdown / about to be kicked out of the stadium / insert your favourite fantasy Salfageddon scenario here), seven of them have British coaches. Of the remaining four, only three are Australian, and one of those three has never coached (at club level) outside of Great Britain, and has, I think, taken British nationality(citation needed) Of the clubs in with a shout of taking that twelfth place, only one has an Australian coach. So, what you talkin' 'bout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG70 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Livett looks a shrewd signing for Salford, think they will bring in another forward and they should be set for next season and looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
