Quote ="Chorlton RL"Is Nobby that good though? You could say that his success at Bradford came on the back of what Matthew Elliott built, that the squad he had at Wigan consistently underachieved and that he could not control the GB squad and get us a series victory with all that talent at his disposal.'"
Noble has brought solidity and improvement to every single club he's coached. I used to be critical of him due mainly to the fact that his teams very rarely won big games and never against Saints. But his work at Wigan was decent and he worked wonders with Crusaders at a time when everyone expected them to finish bottom by some distance. Making the playoffs was a superb achievement.
If he went into Salford now I reckon he would have them finishing 8th or 9th. Not the playoff certainties or 'dark horses' some truly idiotic people have billed them as but solid and hard to beat, particularly at home.
