What exactly is the point of getting an experienced coach if they still can't coach a team to the finals?

You're forgetting Hasler, Bellamy, Toovey were inexperienced once upon a time. Why not take a punt on a rookie coach who will bring fresh ideas to our team?

Toovey did a good stint under hasler, worked his way from player to trainer to assistant, won premierships in coaching staff roles, he was always a good candidate.

Look what happened with our last rookie head coach

Consecutive finals series, ASADA crap aside.

I'm all for an experienced coach to come on, but with the results to back it up. Folkes and Sheens come to mind. I feel like if we got Cartwright we'd be going backwards. That's all

The club really needs to stand up now. What Griffin can bring I feel far outweighs what Flanagan will in the coming years. To much baggage. But they need to start acting hopefully this has started


Griffin and Sheens have respect of players and an eye for Talent... Potter would be a great assistant

Why are we looking at an Ozzie coach , lets bring an O/S import in with a good record , I like Shaun Wane from Warrington , he has a team of solid players , in 3rd spot in the comp , from all reports seems to get the best out of his team consistently.

So possibly...
Hodges/Boyd/Milford/Barba/Eden/Hoffman.

I don't think they will get Boyde, i think he will go to the Titans and i'm pretty sure i read somewhere that Hoffman might be let go too. If not than i don't think he will be playing NRL next year unless they get some injuries, i think Hodges is going to be back at fullback when Bennett goes up there. With Barba playing in the halves and hopefully he puts Milford there as well and we get Hunt out of it. Than it all makes sense them signing a depth fullback, that is if it all happens like that.

I'm hopeful we get Hunt but there's no chance in hell Brisbane just let him go. We will have to pay massive overs which I'm happy to do.

What's everyone think of Brisbane's center's and Wing's. Because that's the only place really all these fullbacks would be going if they aren't depth signing's and if they all go up there.

I personally think Vidot or Maranta are talented young players, id take Vidot over Maranta any day though mainly because i think he would suite centre much better but can play fullback aswell.

I don't think they would release Copley or Reed.

It's one thing that they would release the players. It's another thing for them to come here.

Reece Robinson and Tom Leyord-Lahrs are both confirmed to be leaving Canberra. Apparently Robinson is in talks with a Sydney team, is it us?
