We only have to look at how our hierarchy,manage players such,as Lineham,Westerman,Watts and now Connor - a P45. Probably there will be a BS promotional video, to buy season tickets, sure the playing personnel will change, but the performance of the 'team' will not..

Indeed, assmue he went back to Aus, as you say, hope he is OK

That article is like groundhog day, replace Seymour with Kelly and Sharp with Radford, keep Houghton in and you've pretty much got the copy written for the next season if things don't change, dramatically.

FORMER NRL star Brett John Seymour has been ordered out of Toowoomba and must wear an ankle monitor as part of strict bail conditions after his arrest on Tuesday. Seymour appeared in custody in Toowoomba Magistrates Court today where he successfully applied for bail on recent charges. He was not required to enter any pleas to the charges before the court yesterday which included assaults occasioning bodily harm, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and wilful damage. Solicitor Brad Skuse, for Seymour, said his client would contest the allegations of those charges. Mr Skuse said Seymour, who was in a show-cause position in relation to the wilful damage charge, had arranged to live with his uncle in Brisbane and would not return to Toowoomba except for court appearances if granted bail. He said Seymour would further submit to alcohol testing by police and return a zero reading. Mr Skuse said since being charged in December last year, Seymour, 35, had continued coaching the Toowoomba Valleys rugby league side up until the weekend fixture. Magistrate Kay Ryan accepted Mr Skuse's submission that, should Seymour not be given bail and later be found guilty of the offences he would likely spend more time in custody than any sentence imposed. However, she noted the Crown's case as "strong" and noted the lengthy bail objection tendered by prosecutor Rohan Brewster-Webb. She ordered Seymour be released on bail on the condition he report to The Gap Police every Monday and Friday, stay out of Toowoomba and remain sober of alcohol. He must also be fitted with a tracking device on his ankle. Ms Ryan adjourned the matters back to the same court for mention on July 24. Seymour is a former NRL star having played for the Brisbane Broncos, Cronulla Sharks and New Zealand Warriors, and in the UK Super League. He returned to Toowoomba in 2015 on a coaching and playing position with Valleys.

Re: Radford out : Sat Sep 07, 2019 7:35 am  

Radford can not manage his players.
It was the Senior players of 2016 after the Widnes game , that sorted and brought the squad into line .
A player like Connor will have no respect for Radford. Maybe even , some others haven’t. It is getting like Football, just about the money for some squad members.
They feel untouchable, they earn more money than the Manager , so they feel superior to their Coach . Players of Connor’s ability, and ego, know they can just move on for more money.
The situation with Watts , and now Connor, show that Radford can not handle his awkward players, and pull them into line .
They have no respect for him.
His style , of “offering them out” will not work with the big ego type players. They just think, “ sell me then “ !

One game!

Hardly the bigger picture you are painting there is it.

Re: Radford out : Sat Sep 07, 2019 7:44 am  

No matter who we’ve signed, we could easily find ourselves struggling at the wrong end of the table next year.
We seem bereft if ideas at times, and Radford seems bereft to know what to do about it.
The record defeats, and number of them, seem to have been just forgotten about. If it was Agar or Gentle the pressure on them would have been immense, not least from AP.
We will have the personnel next year to be challenging for the top three. I can’t believe AP will be happy with anything other, but I wonder if he’ll change anything if we’re not?
