Bring back Pay as defence coach for 2024!

[Nate DAWG]

And Pays whole coaching career was just turning up, bringing the madness and keeping all the structures that Des already had in place. Fkn great player but he was a confused monkey when ever interviewed

 

[D0GMATIC]

Our team on paper now is better than the one Pay won 10 games with. 10!

I didn't say Pay was a good coach but he did better than Ciraldo has so far.

We had idiots saying, Meaney was a powderpuff, Hoppa was a gun. OMG the same people are criticising every thing still.

Pays coaching career was trying to fix what the Hassler years fucked . . . But with less money . . . Deano was a gun player though, you're right there

 

[Nate DAWG]

If we had tolman and Jacko, we don't miss many tackles.

Foran on one leg eats Burton and Hoppa 2019 was a great player

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Lets bring back one fuckin loser coach to replace another fuckin loser. Great idea douche bag

Pay was treading water and cannot tie Haslers shoelaces as a coach. Des cap management is a different story

The truck driver lol.

Hoppa was never a great player, he was a decent winger, when he was young

Re Foran, it's no mystery that experience is an attribute of any good half

 

[Dingo]

He wouldn't come back

2019 he was our player of the year. After that he fell off a cliff

 

[Novdoggie]

Dean Pay, the bloke got absolutely shafted by the toxic board at the time

I hope we land Holbrook even if it's as an assistant. We need a plan B if it goes tits up with Ciraldo. Holbrook & Pay would be a good combo.

Not just a plan B but I think CC needs an experienced assistant.

No doubt bro, I just hate hearing bullshit that 1 Pay was a good coach and 2 Pay had a poor list. He had fkn Tolman, Hoppa, Klemmer, Jackson, Foran, J Moz during his time. He had some dead wood as well but better than what we have today

 

[Nate DAWG]

He wouldn't come back

Has he even coached since he left us?

So basically you agree that CC needs further help, hey babe?

I agree, CC needs an experienced assistant. But let’s stop the Pay talk lol

Klemmer was there for half a season and JMoz not much more after that in the first year.

Madge McGuire then????

I believe Pay got an unfair wrap during his tenure.
He did better with a lesser squad and they showed a lot more grit and resilience During the first couple of seasons at least.

I was one of the biggest Pay haters after awhile. I did feel for him towards the end as he wasn’t even allowed to sign players.

He had enough experience in the team at that stage which kept us in games. Klemmer, Woods, Tolman, Jackson, Jmoz, Bmoz, Hoppa, Mbye, Foran to name a few. Some of them were at there peak or near it during his tenure.

Before we shit on Woods and Klemmer they were both current rep props and Jackson was still talked about in the second string for Origin. Jmoz and Bmoz would still have cut it at that stage as well.

It’s debatable but who do we have now in these positions that are better now?

All I will say is our forward pack back then shits all over the one now and defensively our backs were better as well.

We will never know how good Pay could be. Foran played a just a few more fg games than me in that time, Jmoz was broken. If we had a cap to spend we might have been able to keep or attract more talent
