| Quote Saint Simon="Saint Simon"brilliant news, really thought he might go to the NRL'"
I know someone who is a very close family friend of roby and he said roby will never leave saints. He was asked by the aussie media would he go to NRL and he replied he wouldn't rule it out and the press jumped on it as if he was going.
Roby has everything to be put in the same bracket as KC. |

Roby isn't anywhere near as good as KC.
On the NRL thing, it's not the coaching that is the problem, it's the playing stock. Your average NRL youngster looks like the Morris'. Big strapping lads who are the cream of the crop coming through. Over here your average SL youngster is a sparrow legged mong who isn't particularly fast, strong or clever. Just average.

Roby isn't as good as kc, thats why i put he has everything to be put in the same bracket as kc.
Roby would have been a massive hit in the NRL. Roby imo is one of the very few worldclass players we have in england. |

| Quote Rogues Gallery="Rogues Gallery"It's the quality of players, the quality of coaching and more importantly the intensity of the games, even at Junior level.
The Junior Kiwis have just beaten the Aussies, let's see how we go on in the next two weeks v the Aussie U18's.
At the risk of appearing to be moaning (again) about our academy systems, they are not preparing our better young players for the first team, and those are the kids (and coaches) IMO that would benefit more from a year or two's scholarship out in Australia.
However to do that we would need the RFL, ALL the clubs, and the Aussie ARL to buy into it and help to fund it.
=#FF0000I wouldn't bet my house on it happening though.'"
The Council wouldn't be happy either  |

| Quote Billinge_Lump="Billinge_Lump"It would be a far better idea than sending players over. Didn't Mike Rush do something along those lines early in his career?'" How much does an assistant coach get paid? It can't be that much.
I'm sure the RL could find enough to pay a couple of lads wages and accomodation per year and I can't see an NRL club complaining about getting an extra coach for free, can you? |

Nope.
I also think it's a big failing of us bringing over Aussie coaches. Part of every head coaches brief should be improving the coaches underneath him, and I'm not sure that happens to any great extent. |

Where I worked, part of every management positions goals and objectives were to identify, develop and help train their successor.
I'm not sure I've worded it quite right but I think you will understand. |

Hopefully that's what we're seeing implemented at Wigan.
Maguire to Shaun Wane, Shaun Wane to (Potentially) Deacon etc etc. |

Its been shown that the clubs that invest in young players are the ones that perrenially compete at the top of SL, surely its not rocket science to investigate it being the same with the coaching staff? |
