If IL is so concerned then why hasn't he got Brian Noble a Brian Noble pack of forwards instead of an Ian Lenagan pack?
Hope he's not going to do a "Portsmouth" where the directors sold their four best players against the warnings of the coach. Then when they sold them and couldn't win a game the same directors who caused the damage then sacked the coach.
If you're going to have Brian Noble as coach then you have to give him his type of team. Noble has proved five years on the bounce that he can get his team to a Grand Final. It has to be his team, not the Chairman's team.
Then of course there were C Cup wins and World Cup Challenge victories.
Brian Noble can win trophies and repeatedly.
IL must recognise this and provide him with the players he wants to win us silverware.
