eljay 1,711 Report post Posted April 18, 2014 Centre of the Polynesian world. Yet they can't play Rugby (or League) for that matter. So what's the problem?? Coaches?? Management?? Or is Auckland now a Soccer and/or Table Tennis stronghold?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE TORCH 657 Report post Posted April 19, 2014 When you have to bring in a coach who would almost needs his own TV Channel you are always going to have problems. Not surprised it has only taken a year for JK to be "found out". Even Piri has had a gutsful: https://nz.sports.yahoo.com/rugby/news/article/-/22750116/super-rugby-weepu-wants-consistent-first-five-selection/ Anyone who saw the weak doco of the Blues in SA could see stuff all coaching knowledge from JK and a pile of hyped up waffle. You reap what you sow Auckland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

meomy 971 Report post Posted April 21, 2014 Had to laugh at TV news & sports crew comments about the Marshmallow not likely to be going off to the Phoenix.. Marshmallow as bad as Moneybill & got no loyalty. Neither would last a week in "normal" jobs you & i do, would they? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
