Agreed, to me he's really found his feet in league again the second half of the season. Iv been very impressed with every game he's played for Fev since there game with Halifax, including Toronto away, where he was very good imo.

Me too. Terrible call by the club imo if it happens though.

It was Agar who recommended Martin to Leeds.He spotted him while working out there.

Under him the only time this season the p,Ayers are playing like they want to. Even if there have been new signings

I'd be surprised if anyone but Agar gets the job.

He's done everything asked of him, we have looked better on the pitch, we have won games and look to be heading to safety and he has conducted himself very well in front of the media.

Of course the winning games is also down to the club bringing in better players but I'm not sure what else people really want from him.

Sure he isn't a fashionable name and people have a negative view of him from previous roles but I would be surprised if he was overlooked.

For me the assistant coaches are just as important. Agar is a decent man-manager but there needs to be something else alongside him.

I don’t have a problem with it if they get the overall team right. There’s much more input going into a side these days then just one bloke smoking woodbines with a scowl.

Totally agree.

I'm not as up on all the backroom folk these days so can't say much but agree there needs to be a balance of skills and personalities there that compliment each other.

I think it will be Agar and Carr for next season and I’ll be happy with that, getting an overseas coach in is always a gamble, Agar seems to gel with the players and it will give us some stability which is needed at the moment

Surely more chance of it simply been Carr? Why would Carr leave his Fev job, for an assistant role? And if we go as we are now, with Carr part time, then we simply don’t learn.

What happened to the Flanagan rumours, at least he was a proven coach.
Interestingly, Carr would’ve been coaching at Cronulla during Flanagan’s time there.
The other name in the frame was Demetriou, who whilst not having had a head coach job at NRL or SL level, does have a track record of success below that, and has now been involved successfully under Wayne Bennett for some time.
I wouldn’t be against either route there, Flanagan or Demetriou, but would prefer Carr stays and goes fulltime as part of any new setup for some stability.
Agar didn’t seem to want the role, and almost appears to have done it begrudgingly, albeit with some level of success of turning things round. Credit where it’s due there. But if he doesn’t really want the role, then let’s find someone that does. No point appointing for the sake of it. Get someone who has a point to prove, be that Flanagan rebuilding his name after the NRL ban, or someone like Demetriou who is looking to build his own career. The latter has the advantage of knowing SL at least after his time playing over here.
What I do want is a coach who has us playing a decent brand of rugby, look what Holbrook has achieved at Saints, they play with real pace and intensity which other teams are struggling to match. It’s actually great to watch the speed at which they play the game.
Invest in the right coach, add a class 6/7, plus an absolute unit of a prop, and we’re not a million miles away. Then place faith in the youngsters for the other squad gaps rather than more journeymen. We’re often told we have a generation of real talent coming through, give them the shot under the right calibre of intuitive and attacking coach, then watch us climb back up the table.
Sure I saw it on here a couple of days ago, that we may be overpaying some players, just to get them to come. Improve the coaching, play some quality rugby, and the right level of players will want to join again.

Barrie Mac has an interview on Sky today stating that Leeds won't go with another coach from overseas. He reckons Agar will be part of the team but not sure if he will be head coach or not.

What is the title of the job he held before this ? " head of coaching and player development " ? He stated he didnt want the coaching job permanently. If that is still his intention he may have an input as to who is next coach .
