Brown n out?? : Sun Jul 15, 2012 6:38 pm  
Another pretty poor shudds performance , out of the cup and in free fall in the league will be get the boot?? If he does he could spend the rest of the season working on recruitment and planning for us next year :) , anyone think he could take up a more official capacity at the club this year ?

Re: Brown n out?? : Sun Jul 15, 2012 7:01 pm  
I really don't see why not. Huddersfield are in free fall now and out of the Challenge Cup. It's highly likely that their poor form is due largely to Brown's departure and the lack of cohesion at the club. In the situation they are in, once it's announced Anderson is taking over and Brown signs for Saints, they should have parted ways there and then. It's such an awkward position as it undermines Brown's authority.

This season is a complete write off for us. We've persisted with Wellens at fullback and brought in Hohaia to play in the halves. It was only ever going to end one way for us after making those decisions. Us knowing we were losing Royce early on also meant we lacked direction and leadership. KC and Rush taking over hasn't changed anything really, they are just trying to get the most out of what we have rather than worrying too much about establishing game plans, defensive patterns and attacking moves. Hence the reason we're doing better against most sides, as we're just playing on instinct, and why we're so far behind Wigan as we're not prepared properly.

This season is going to end with us losing in the playoffs to Wigan most probably. I really can't see any reason why Brown couldn't come in now. Why not get the bad period of results when he changes the systems on the field and the lineup now rather than at the start of next season? Us taking on Brown is a risk and he is a coach that will disassemble the existing systems to build his own, which will mean we're in for a horrendous few months. I just think getting that out of the way now, during this awful, pointless season then starting next season firing, is better than us being mid table come this time next season and having a poor start to another season.

According to Andy Wilson on Twitter, Nathan Brown has claimed that he was forced to abandon his attack plan due to player power.

Huddersfield are going down the pan, I think they'll fall off the radar next year and the fact Brown and a few others have said they're leaving has just left them without any cohesion and and unity. The quotes from his post presser are staggering and I can't see how he'll be at Huddersfield for much longer. Wouldn't surprise me if he left tomorrow.

Sounds like he's looking to be sacked with them comments. He'd be mad to quit as he will want paying out.

It's all gone wrong at hudds but I'm still very happy to have him as our coach next year, nothing has changed from my point of view, he's still a top super league coach.

I've only been an active fan of the sport since 2007 as I've said on here before (watched it loads on the TV since being a nipper thanks to family who have been avid Saints supporters for donkeys years). I'm wondering, has rugby league always been this melodramatic?

He's a very good coach and plays exciting rugby so I think he'll initially do really well at Saints but he's a bit of a loose cannon with some of his comments. He doesn't pull any punches and has that 'Millward' streak in him. It'll certainly be entertaining with him in charge.

I enjoy listening to Brown talk, he knows his rugby and is very honest but doesn't hold anything back.

If he's our coach for next season and we have the opportunity to bring him in early, I'm all for it. He wasn't my first choice but now he's accepted the job we might as well let him have a crack at it, should he be available. I understand the issue of stability but we've been here before and done well with it so I'm prepared to take that risk because that's how Saints roll.
