Looks that way. Hard to imagine him giving up a head coach job to be an assistant for longer than 1 season.

Yep, looks almost certain he will be our next coach in a years time. I for one would be happy with that. He was really up against it at Quins but at times they played some great stuff down there.

Good bit of business IMO.

He was always on a hiding to nothing with the harlbroncsaders.

What the bets that he'll be takin over from the Bluemeister in 2012??

And with a bit of luck he'll fetch LMS with him too!!

Good move by the club is that. I recall Sinfield saying during Brian's time at the club the players rate Brian Mac very highly indeed.

Beat me to it, Chris Irvine just Tweeted news.

Tell you what guys, Twitter is good for this sort of things as news moves quickly, some good insight as well from George Riley & Chris Irvine in particular!

Pleased as well, good to have him back and nice that it will be a proper transition with Bluey and him working together next year before he takes over in 2012.

Good business once again GH!

On twitter myself. Never once contributed to it as I've no desire for other people to know what I'm up to, but it is useful for stuff like this as you say.

I'm happy with this.

Good bloke is Mac and did a good job as number 2 to Tony Smith and apparently well liked and respected by players/staff at Leeds during his time here.

At least with a year as number 2 it will offer a good transition to him becoming head coach for 2012 and beyond.

As a lot of the squad only got contract extensions for 2011 it also gives Mac the chance to have some say in the make up of the squad for 2012 and beyond.

I liked him when he was at Leeds, and he's done OK at Quins with limited resources.

It certainly is a bold move for a club like Leeds going with an English coach when the currently favoured path to success in SL is to bring in a coach with NRL experience. Then again McClennan seems to have coped OK. If he is to become head coach (which seems likely) it won't happen for over a year, and I suppose we can only judge him if and when he takes over.

McCarthy-Scarsbrook to Leeds anyone?
