you set this thread off parton marra about DR and doubters so come on let go ,he doesnt coach haven anymore. and doubters of any coach after so short a time at a club are just being ridiculous. you concentrate on crestas season marra. he has a hell of a job on his hands to please some haven fans imo.

my problems with dr were

1 he didnt play good rugby he was to safe, 4-5 drives kick hope to force an error in the opposition half, hope john duffy or carl rudd can win you the game with something special, never had a plan b if they couldnt. if we were getting beat he would  never change the game plan.

2 he would always pick the travelling players no matter how bad they were never gave the locals or youth a chance.

3 he made some shocking signings - simon baldwin,aaron smith,matty dale.

4 he doesnt have a personality never had time for the fans, paul crarey speaks to the fans all the time i think paul crarey has spoke to more haven fans in 2 months than DR did in 2 years.

matty dale did nice loan stint and aaron smith had some great games for us. didnt fit the game plan at haven but bet he will have a great season this year

matty dale didnt do anything more imo than adam shaw or david ford couldnt have done

dr made 3 good signings at haven
Fletch,leafa and bannister.
