Position specific coaches : Mon Feb 16, 2009 9:12 am  

Watched the Superleague show this morning After I got over the trauma of Harry Gration's jumper the most interesting part was Robbie Paul suggesteing position specific coaches. He was talking in relation to developing young players but after the under par showing from our half backs yesterday I think it's an interesting idea for a HB coach in particular.

That's all well and good but you would need some in the role who's been there and done it.

Could do worse than Robbie Paul himself in that role.

Fair point

It is hard for say McNamara, Karl Harrison, Brian McDermott etc etc to coach a half back in certain ways

I guess its just down to how far you take these things though

Thinking about it Greg Bird could do it but it would have to be done over the phone.
