and the other season and 2/3rds he's had as coach to show his coaching credentials never happened then?

2. Calderwood 2010
4. Yeaman 2010
8. Dowes 2010
11. Radford 2010
12. Tickle 2010
13. Fitzgibbon 2010 Quota
16. Manu 2010
17. Cusack 2010 Quota
20. Houghton 2010
21. Whiting 2010
24. Hall 2010


Got to be Fitz & Manu then, would not be too fussed at any others on that list either way

On current form I woulden't be bothered to see Yeaman, Dowes, Radford, Cusack and Hall go. Calderwood also has to be a doubt due to his current injuries.

If true, well done to the fc board

Wish I had a quid for every time that sentence or a variation on it has appeared on this forum over the last couple of years.

I expect to see it plenty more times in the future as well.

Tickle, Fitz, Manu, Hall and Houghton should be absolute priorities.

I'd also like to see Calderwood, Yeaman and Whiting kept but wouldn't be massively disappoined if they left.

Cusack will leave anyway and I'm not massively bothered about Dowes and Radders, although I would imagine at least one will stay because two good British props are hard to come by.

You can't build long term stability on short-term decisions. Going for broke by spending money on a coach may buy a season of good performances, but if it crashes after that you are back to square one. I'd rather build as a team like we are doing. At the end of the season, we'll be top 4 and thoughts like these will be gone. We are still recovering from a few seasons of poor form and the player confidence issues don't right themselves with a couple of wins. We'll be fine, Agar is good coach and we'll be top 4 at the end of the season.

Thats my thoughts.

Its funny how the original poster has not put a single response up since breaking this story. How did he manage to find this if it is not on the main page of the site and if it was dated older why was he scrolling through the old news stories.

Too coincidental for me and I will wait till tomorrow to see if it actually breaks.

Can I have a kilo of what you're on please?
