JOEY' S BACK AT TRAINING

As the title says, it was just on the news that Joey has been given permission to coach the halves again on the training field. He was seen coaching onfield today. There has been some queries in this regard so I thought I would let you know incase you didn't see it. Get those halves going Joey.

      • Matty Johns was working with the Storm halves...Cooper Cronk back when they wanted to turn him into a half

      • It was Matty, Andrew might be a immortal but that don't mean he has the ability to coach or teach and his past failures as a halves coach proves it.  lets face it Andrew is not a very mentally stable person and only god knows what he is on half the time and you don't have to be genius as to why parra (after his first stint) Manly, Newcastle and the Roosters all punted him. 

        • Watch the footage of him coaching the young NSW Academy halves, he's a brilliant communicator Frankie. That said, it's still up to the player to apply what he teaches.

    • I would rather cronk or Thurston but I know that would never happen. 

      • Why, have you actually seen JT's or Cronk's coaching in action ?

        Are you suggesting they know more about the game than Joey ?

        How do you know they would be better ?

    • He can only teach Frankie, he can't make them apply what he's teaching.

  • Thank god, hopefully gives Mitch an idea of wtf he's supposed to be doing as a half

  • I'd be throwing some money at Cronk to coach our halves, not that he'd want to coach anyways

    • Again, why do you assume that he would be a better halves coach than Joey ?

  • Joey was having an impact prior to co-vid. Let's hope he does so again.

"What if the NRL set up a system where players who are locally developed and make it to 1st grade, those players are exempt from the cap? That would force clubs to develop more from within rather than poach from other clubs. Just a thought."
