    It’s not as straightforward as everyone thinks. I think it’s highly likely he will come, I’m just pointing out that there’s reasons why nothing official has been announced.

    It’s also definitely only for the rest of this season. There won’t be another year.

    That’s how I’ve seen it also.
    I think the De Belin court case is on Monday.

    If it is only for this year I wonder who we’re looking at for the year after. If we’re still after Tamou or not, I read he wanted too much money but it was from a non-trusted paper.

    Tamou wanted silly money. Especially for someone of his age.

    Yeah I understand the reasons why it’s not announced yet. By formality I mean that I think it’s only a matter of time personally. For McGregor to come out and reveal what he has says to me that it’s going to happen. He was certainly talking as though it’s a case of when, not if. As you say, the De Belin case on Monday is massive to all of this, but they seem to be confident the charges will be dropped and he’ll be available again for them pretty soon.

    That was a great interview with James and here's the comments from The Dragons' head coach from yesterday.

    https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/06/19/...e-the-dragons/

    Interesting to hear that it was Graham who went to the club to ask for the release and it's Ian Millward that may hold the key in the return happening.

    Regards,

    STEVO

    Do we actually need 2? Especially with no reserves.

    He came in higher rated and did good things at Fax. The club may need to slim down a bit post Covid. I don't think we have seen anything yet in terms of business contraction across all sectors.

    Definitely need two assistants. One usually does attack and one defence. Plus they split the individual player reviews between them.

    Interestingly enough, prior to Matty Peet coming back, Wigan were the only SL team to run with only one assistant. They’d done so for a few years.

    We do need to keep Richard Marshall. I would hope the plan is for him to be head coach.
    I could agree with you but then we would both be wrong.

    Judge in Jack de Belin pretrial case has just said that it is to continue this week. The release of Jammer could be delayed unless St GI can get cover for him from elsewhere!

    Jammer just said on NRL 360 Live that he is coming back to Saints ( banner saying Breaking News James Graham returns to Saints etc)- the whole sequence was very much a farewell to him (although he is intending on returning to OZ in Jan 21)

    Glad it’s not dependent on the Belin case as was first mooted. I knew he was coming, it was just a matter of when!

    His current coach McGregor sounded gutted that he is leaving, so that tells me he's still performing which gives our pack some strength for the remaining season.

    I haven't heard Jammer for a while but Sam Burgess seems to drift between Yorkshire & Aussie accent atm which I find quite funny.

    I can't stand listening to Burgess, his accent infuriates me. I love watching the Matty Johns shows on a Thursday and a Sunday but Burgess is so annoying on the Sunday one. Graham's accent hasn't really changed at all but Burgess even uses lots of Aussie phrases. He's just a wannabe Aussie.
