I am of the belief that the majority of people on here want noddy as coach for the remainder of the year and for him to have some sort of involvement with the club in regards to being either assistant or halves coach next year. So someone said we should make a petition and get some flags for the game a few days ago and i thought it was a good idea so i created a petition. If we get enough people to sign i will email the club the petition and hopefully they might just listen (for once). If we share it out on social media i am sure that we should be able to get quite a few people to sign it.

The petition page is: http://www.petitionbuzz.com/petitions/noddyforintermcoach

I can edit it at any time so if anyone has any suggestions than just let me know.

The Women's Suffrage petitions did alright in Australia.

Not sure how Noddy Suffrage will do but give the kid a break, at least he's having a go ;)





(PS If Noddy reads this thread he'll probably be contacting the electoral commission tomorrow to see if he has the right to vote)

There is a lot of ways to look at this, and we have to get it right!!!
Taylor --- lots of positives great footy brain but can be unpopular
Price -- Got smashed at the queens, is respected amongst players. I would have no problems.
Noddy--- Would it take us back to the flat ando days???

The only bloke I want to coach us is a bloke who wants the job and is willing to put in. The players showed as I posted earlier in the year that they control their own destiny - if they put in at training and in the game they are good enough to beat anyone.

The coach can't force them to do this they have want to do it - once they decide they don't want to its game over and no coach can change that.

Cronulla Sharks must decide between coaches James Shepherd and Steve Price

A CRONULLA board meeting tomorrow is likely to determine if the Sharks stick with rookie assistant coach James Shepherd for the remainder of this season or appoint former St George Illawarra coach Steve Price.
The crucial decision was an obvious talking point *on Sunday in the wake of the Sharks’ remarkable comeback win over the Sydney Roosters on Saturday night, a win which rugby league *Immortal Bob Fulton *described as the greatest win by any team in 50 years.
Cronulla management have reacted to the resignation of interim coach Peter Sharp last Monday with *deliberate diligence, unwilling to rush the decision on a possible replacement.
Following a week of unprecedented crisis, Shepherd was handed the reins of a Sharks side still dealing with an ongoing ASADA investigation, minus sacked star Todd Carney, their inspirational captain Paul Gallen, NSW Origin forward Luke Lewis and injured trio Andrew Fifita, John Morris and Chris Heighington.
Rallying from 24-0 behind on the scoreboard to overcome a stunned Roosters side 30-28, there was a suggestion that the cash-strapped club would be better off saving their money by keeping Shepherd in charge.
However, by appointing Price, the Sharks would secure the signature of a coach who has experienced the rigours of the NRL as a head coach who could also complement Shane Flanagan upon his return from suspension.
Talk of who the Cronulla board ratify to steer the Sharks for the remaining nine weeks of the NRL season took a momentary back seat on Sunday as stunned fans, officials and commentators recounted the Sharks’ amazing fightback — for the second week in succession.

Sharks coach James Shepard fronts the media after his side's stunning comeback victory over the Roosters.
Fulton, who has achieved success at the highest level, both as a player and as a coach, summed up the Sharks’ amazing performance on Saturday night.
“If last week’s game against the Broncos when they were behind 22-0 two minutes into the second half was a miracle … how do you describe last night’s win?,’’ Fulton said on 2GB’s *Continuous Call team.

Former Cronulla Sharks halfback Brett Kimmorley has played down rumours linking him to the vacant Sharks coaching position, saying that at this stage it is only speculation.
“Put it all in perspective with Gallen, Lewis, Fifita, Morris, Heighington all out … a coach who is a replacement for a replacement, being behind 24-0 after 30 minutes, ASADA hanging round and add to that the appalling act by Todd Carney.
“I’ll tell you how I describe it. I’ve been around for 50 years at this level and I’d say this is the best win in the club’s history. But outside of the win by Balmain over Souths in the ’69 grand final I think it’s maybe the best win under the circumstances for the last 50 years.
“And I can only go back that far. But it was a titanic performance by a bunch of blokes who never gave up — they had a real crack.’’

I don't care what they do this year but they need to think hard about who the assistant for next year will be, I just hope they don't wait for the off season so flanno picks who it is

Don't know if Shepard was just being humble during the post match interview, but he made it pretty clear that he had little to do with the week leading up to the roosters game. He didn't seem to want to take any recognition for the win, stating the senior players ran the training sessions (something along those lines).

Worries me that he would be a similar coach to Sharpey, in that he won't have the confidence to take charge of the team.

In saying that, I don't think Steve Price has earned the respect of the RL community. If I was a player, I wouldn't hold his coaching ability in high regard.

For me its BK or JT, but I can't see either of those outcomes eventuating.
