McNamara has left Catalan.
Now there's a thing. Wonder if there is anything to do with Sam leaving to Perth Bears (as reported not confirmed).
Told this is to be announced next week. Burgess to Perth in 2027 is done.
Good luck to the lad i hope he does well! He has been honest, his long term goal was to get back over there. I personally don't think he is a huge loss when we first brought him in my initial thoughts surely he can pull a player in... That's hardly gone well IMO so maybe we lose someone who can pull a group together and that's what we have seen more of, we do look tighter as a team from academy to first team. I do think we will lose any momentum in the transfer market as it'll all be up in the air, who wants to come to a club with what will be by then a head coach leaving not sure if the first team coaching staff with be sticking about with a few players departing, just sounds like a total rebuild again. Having said all that i don't know any of this I'm just speculating on a hot day in work and tired.. and feeling glum about our performances in recent weeks.
It is another re-build. We are always at the start of a 3 year plan.
Yes Sam has been honest, and I wish him well, but I didn't expect that for 18 months we would be on the wind down to suit his career timeframe. But I don't expect any action from the club, they will just ride it out - each week "learning lessons" and "doing it hard" with "bad days at the office", then a hero's goodbye and we are back at square one.
