You think he's not going to put a point across that the guy he endorses is well capable ?
what's he going to say " the guy I pay to coach is a shitcunt nuffie " ?
It's actually a very vanilla statement when trying to indicate you're praising your coach. No mentons of " great " or " fantastic " coach. Just a " Brad gets a player from A to B ". Yeah so does a fucking Toyota Camry .
The question really is who replaces O'Neill? Is anybody currently in line to automatically take over or do they have to start looking and hiring someone?

"Foran played 162 NRL games AFTER HE LEFT THE EELS. Add that to the 147 he played in his first stint at Manly and the 9 games he played for us, Foran played over 300 NRL games. Hardly a player with "problems". Most likely is that he got the fuck out…"
"Yehez, yep, you'd probably rather defend on the line with 13-men than further up-field where full-backs and wingers drop back for the kick; almost a 10-man line.
That's also a reason we probably need to be better at scoring tries off kicks behind…"

Yeah aged liked fine wine, my word i was off on that.
Please note that the Mushroom and me do not drink fine wine.....I'm quiet partial to Yellowtail at $7 a bottle.
Stay with the Cheap retorts LB, it works (apparently) for Chiefy and Jimmy.
