Barrett Praises Noble

Post by Wigan Watcher »

Barrett Praises Noble

Trent Barrett has been telling both old and younger players at the club that Noble is one of the top coaches in the world today and they should be grateful of the contribution he gives to the team. He said the game plans Noble has given to the team week in week out would have been good enough to win each game. He went onto say that if the team followed his directions and commitment they would be more successful.

So in a nut shell….. Barrett really rates Brian Noble

Do you want me to tell you how good Brian Noble's GPs are? The Academy / Reserves are player for player far better than 99% of their opponents by a long way and yet they struggle sometimes v lesser teams using them and rarely beat St Helens who use Anderson's Game Plan at all levels.

I could throw in the wonderful impact of Brian Noble at international level. To quote Gould, in the space of 12 months this guy has taken GB backwards by 5 years.

Does Noble set the game plan for reserve games???

It is common practice for all teams within the same club to use the same systems in order to aid progression. It has been for 20+ years. If they did not, the head coach would deserve to be sacked.

When Trent writes his autobiography if it is truthful you will discover a very different picture than the one your painting IMO.

Ok I will answer my own question then.

The question was does Noble set the game plan for the reserves?

The answer is no he does not.

A club can have an ethos of playing methods but each game plan is set differently before each game and can and does change throughout that game as it unfolds, or situations change such as injuries or a certain player from the opposition is doing something that is threatening our line, I could go on but I think you have got the idea.

So again Noble does not set game plans for reserve games.

However, the use the same generic systems. Yes? Game day, just as the first team players adapt and try to overcome the inadequacies of the head coach so do the part time and FT coaches of the reserves / academy.

Who was right IL at the forum or Brian Noble post forum?

British coaches are years behind top NRL coaches. That is why Anderson has strolled through SL, that is why most great teams are coached by recent NRL coaches.

The problem you have is that if Nobby said white was white, some people wil still argue the toss!
I have no reason to dispute what Trent has said and if this is a quote and not a "someone told me", then good on him :)

Have top coaches from down under come over here and not reached the top with their teams..? Yes of course. You can have the best coach in the world put infront of a bad team such as Wigan and the rest will be history

It is not a quote A/B and yes your right :wink:

I would happily remove the block and let the guillotine drop on Noble.

Sorry Wigan Watcher I have to disagree with your view that we are a bad team irrelevant of whom coaches us. We have the players to achieve what Cats have as the minimum/bottom line. Coaches are judged on what they achieve with the playing resources available to them and on that basis we are bottom of SL and Noble is the worst coach in SL.

Noble is a very clever fox, and manipulates people to side with him .As a coach no matter what happens on match day, there is always a reason why it was not his fault.
Beware the Silver Fox, its funny Barrett praises Noble, Calderwood slags off Lenegan, both going home & late in the season.I agree with Lenegan the team are boring to watch, and it only proves to me that if the team can play as they did friday, a completley different style of rugby, then Noble should be able to produce this all season.
Tompkins says Barrett has been very vocal in training all week, I leave you to form your own conclusions as to who took training this week.
