Warriors still want Bellamy
The New Zealand Warriors’ hopes of securing super coach Craig Bellamy mightn’t be over with speculation of a caretaker being appointed next year to carry the club over until the Melbourne Storm mentor is free to cross the Tasman.
There was another twist in the prolonged saga last night when David Kidwell, widely tipped to be in the mix, withdrew because he became frustrated at the Warriors’ indecision.
Kidwell is an assistant to Bellamy at the Storm and his withdrawal follows a similar move by Kiwis coach Stephen Kearney who has decided to take up a role with the Brisbane roncos next year.
But the latest development comes with Bellamy, the man who guided Melbourne to this year’s NRL title, back in the club’s sights, on a three-year deal that could be worth more than $4m.
The Warriors have played a patient game with Bellamy and that patience could extend to allowing him to see out his deal with the Storm that finishes at the end of next year.
The Warriors would undertake the 2013 campaign with a fill-in coach.
no craig you want to live in wollongong not auckland!
He could even live in the Shire. Then he would be in between Kograh and Woolongong. Mick Cronin played for Parra for around 10 years, but lived in Gerringong the whole time.
I think Bellamy should change clubs. Its a true test of coach to emulate success at another club. Look at Bennett undisputed best coach with 7 Premierships with 3 different clubs. Hasler moving to the Dogs seems to suggest he wants his legacy to rival bennetts.
bennet has only got premierships with two clubs that wont change while hes coaching the dragons of newcastle!
Read his biography he pretty much coached the Canberra raiders to one of their premierships before he went to coach as brisbane. No need to hate just cause your teams shit now.
Maybe you need to a bit more reading dude, Bennett started coaching the broncs in 88, the raiders didn’t get their first title until 89. If you’re gonna hate pulie, at least have the stones to name your team. Otherwise, neck up parrot.
Maybe if the Dragons moved to Melbourne he would coach them as no one seems to want to go to the Dragons anymore. Why Mr Doust us fans keep asking but i cannot hear any of the answers.
Don’t write off Sheens for the Warriors job he would be the perfect fit for that job and there is also the chance Benji (a Kiwi ) would follow him. Just a thought everyone.
As much as I’d love to have Bellamy at the Dragons – for the sake of the game, I think it would be great to have him at the Warriors.
He’s got a magic touch and would bring some well earned success to the Warriors + we need the game to grow beyond our shores and Bellamy would be the perfect fit.
In addition it would sink Melbourne Storm – and that would be a cracking thing.
Hey Poppa Clay you are Idiot ,Bellamy staying in Melbourne.
F..k off idiot
Now Now Alex be a little nicer please
As if Bellamy would want to coach the Red Vomit. A team that hasn’t won a real comp since 1979.. They should have spared Illawarra and thrown out the Dragqueens.
Little boy blue doesn’t have a clue. lol
As for you muppet. Best you change your name to Devoid Saint. Let’s see if you’re clever enough to work out why. I doubt it.
Go on tell me why blue ass fly?
I just want to hear your stupid response.
Have you found your shoe yet?
So what you got nothing as usual Blue ass fly.
Hey Blueballs didn’t you see the NRL in 2010???? Gee your a tosser, I don’t even know why i’m wasting my time with an oxygen theif like yourself.
As I said you Knobhead Dragon, they haven’t won a REAL comp (with all teams competing) since 1979. Actually, make that ever, given they’re a merged team now…
Describe for everyone what a real comp is blue balls – one where a team is allowed to cheat the cap. Aside from the fact the Dragons handed the storm their arse that year anyway. Another parrot that needs to neck up.
Handed The Storm their arse that year? What drugs are you on? The only time they met that year was in round 4 and the Storm kicked the red vomit out of you muppets. Manly beat the Storm 40 nil in a GF when the Storm were over the cap. Maybe the NRL should bring back unlimited tackles and Johnny Raper. Saints might win a comp….
Bellamy has pulled out as of 10 mins ago.. New front runners are Sheens and Smith
really?
Hey blubag u are an idiot
Great comback Desy. How long did it take you to think up that one?
I’m sick and tired of doust and albert I just wish they would f… off and take price with them.. Get people who have a clue and let them run my club because those three monkeys CLEARLY have no idea..! After watching the clip with doust answering questions I now know 100% he’s a monkeys arse hole ” if Jennings comes on the market yes we would be interested ” friggen tosser his manager blocked the deal stop talking out of your arse and admit you are out if your depth with running this great club of mine.. Hate to say it only because we dont have euther one but people like greenberg, hasler, bellamy are driving our game not doust, albert or price..!
According to the Daily Telegraph, Craig has indicated that he has no interest in coaching the Warriors.
Blue moron mate how old are you mate .You carry on like a little 2 year old mate. If you got nothing to add to our forum go and ring your boyfriend and go suck him off u loser keyboard warrior
Sharky the sparky you took my words out of my mouth
Poor blue boy mate you are a dead set f. K wit doesn’t suprise me you are gay mate
Masking gay tendancides there are we? Best change your name to Ck Sucking Cowboy. Long live Heath Ledger…
Woo Hoo finally a clever Gummy fan well said Sharky the Sparky. You sound like a electrician so being in the same game as me i like you. BUT!!! Your gummies are trying real hard to buy a comp. Good luck ok. Just as long as Moltzens Tigers don’t win it
Agro i watched and thought the same thing and i couldn’t have put it any better myself well said champ.
Can’t believe Kidwell knocked back a 1st grade coaching gig.
It has to be because he knows the warriors will get bellamy in 14′ and it is only a short term opportunity.
I am an electrian and I’m happy that the sharkys are getting it together I used to follow the dragons but when they merged that was it for never looked back must admit I was so glad they won the comp I will admit it
You’ve obviously received too many jolts over the years. It’s not wonder you support the Gummys. Win a comp muppet…just one will do..
Haha blueboys back. I’m surprised your mum has let you come out to play. I thought it would take you a awhile to get over your bulldogs getting done in the gf.
As belly ache I can’t see him leaving the storm for any money especially when they have news limited behind them and the big 3are still playing. I am still unsure whether I would want him at our club anyways because like blueboy I can still hold a grudge and I still find it hard to believe that he had no idea about the systematic routing that was going on. But I suppose I forgave Bennett for all those years he coached the broncos when they were “under the cap” so maybe I could get over it if, and that is a big if he ends up at wollongong
I bet you were cheering so loud for the Dragons in 2010. Dragon to a Shark fan??? Are you sure you haven’t wired to many power points in your time????
