Says that five Super League clubs will be looking for new coaches in the next few months (Saints, Bradford, Huddersfield, Catalans and Leeds). Intimation is that both Bluey and Nathan Brown are going to the NRL with Walters sacked.

Any thoughts on who goes where? Stephen Kearney, Ricky Stuart and Graham Murray come to mind as available names, but there may be others.

Fingers crossed Saints wil repeat the Potter experiment and take Kevin Walters from Les Catalans...

I don't think Walters is that bad a coach at all. Too early to write him off. Not worked out for him at Catalans, fair enough, but he is still better than a lot of others.

Doesn't Mal Meninga get mentioned every time Saints are looking for a new coach.

Sticking neck on line, I will say, McDermott to Bulls, Kear to Huddersfield, and Morgan to Saints. Which of course then leaves another 3 clubs looking for coaches.

I’d like to see Brian Nobel at the helm next year.

Very unlikely to happen though thanks to him hating Leeds with a passion. But I recon these two together would be a very formidable partnership.

ive heard its morgan with cunningham as his assistant.

Leeds and Saints will both likely go overseas.

Wonder if the coach of a certain NRL side currently on the wrong end of some very bad publicity might fancy a clean start elsewhere?

Yes please!

In reality, I could see him sticking it out at Melbourne. If anything, his stock could go up even higher if he can achieve something with an effectively brand new Storm team next season.

I've heard McClennan's wife is homesick and wants to move home.

Potter to Bulls might be a better bet.

Kear to Huddersfield makes sense, now you mention it. Morgan to Saints is the big rumour. IMO Menzies will be at least assistant at the Bulls, and maybe Ricky Stuart to Catalans if Nathan Brown takes his job down under.

I'm not up on the NRL enough to know who's unsetled or potentially available there, but I'd assume Leeds would look there if there's a vacancy, unless they go for the NZ incumbent again...

A lot could depend on where Kearney thinks his squad is after the Anzac Test.

If they take a good hiding and don't look to be at the races he may not want to stick around until the next generation of players develops behind them.

Or maybe we should repeat the Smith experiment by getting a departing Huddersfield coach ?

So Captain no emotions is leaving Saints, I didnt see that one coming.................

The test of a good coach is does he make a team better than the sum of its parts.

Had Huddersfield been able to achieve in their highest profile games last year - the Challenge Cup final and the playoffs - then there would be no argument that applied to Nathan Brown.

As it is, there's still a question mark there IMO particularly in light of his unnecessary and emotional outburst at the weekend.
