Quote: Bullseye "It's going to be Morrison I think. I'm 99% sure it'll be him. I wouldn't be unhappy with that choice. I'd not be disappointed with Naylor either who seems to have that ability to get a team to play above itself - a skill that few coaches have. My only reservation with him is his lack of experience but then Morrison is relatively new too.

Harris - No he could put a glass eye to sleep. McDermott or Anderson - doubt they'd be applying since they have jobs.

Brian Smith? Possibly. Ideally I'd have him working with Morrison or Naylor rather like Smith did with Elliott back in 95/96. Smith could take over a backroom role looking at recruitment too - perhaps relieving Steve Ferres of that part of his job. I would expect a dual recruitment would be too costly so won't happen but I think this would be my "in an ideal world" solution. Smith could also advise Robbie in the role of being a chief exec. Robbie is one of his proteges after all...'"


Don't think Naylor's got the credit he deserves with what he's done with Oldham. He got them promoted after they had failed before, and that was in the season FIVE teams had been relegated from the championship. Oldham's budget is probably pitiful compared to the rest of the championship, yet he has got them competitive in this league. The KR victory was probably the icing on the cake.

I have been told that the Bulls have made an approach to the Rhinos with regards to Brian Mac's availability/current contract situation at the club

I'm not sure if there's any truth in this or even if Mac would fancy coming back home ?

TBH, I wouldn't mind Morrison coming in as head coach with Naylor as his assistant.

Morrison has had 3 good years at Dewsbury to cut his teeth and turned them into a solid mid-table team which is not bad given the likely budgets he'll have been working with as well as the part time environment and it's time he got chance to step up to a coaching a full time setup.

Naylor is doing a good job with Oldham and is certainly a good motivator going by their giant killing in the cup, but I think he's still a little too raw to take on a head coach job at this level.

Posted on the other thread by mistake.

I'll throw in Brian McClennan as we've already a few Rhino rejects.

And Ian Millward just because no-one would want him so that would be nailed on.

Right, that's as many as I'm adding, so you can all re-vote now (it's wiped them for some bizarre reason)

Red Amber and Black Fantasy Rugby League Champion 2012. By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013 Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know: Mystic Eddie has been right all along! - copyright vbfg 05.01.2017:Others/combustable.gif

WTF is McNamara doing on there?

After all FA, if he [iis[/i the top class coach that you claim him to be then he would hardly be interested in a lowly Championship side now would he? icon_wink.gif

Paul Deacon? Not sure what he is up to apart from putting the cones out every 9 months for Steve Mac. Obviously when it goes teets up nothing would be his fault.

Deac's is coaching in Union - Sale I think.

Didn't it say the Canada team are looking to train at our facilities when over here.
That solves it then.
Nobby can manage them in Canada but when he is here with them he can coach us in a job share agreement with Wayne Bennett when he is here doing his England duties. When neither are over here we could have Glen doing the other days.

I am sure FA could set up a spreadsheet model that works out the timings of training for when each coach happens to be in the area. This way we don't have to choose just one because we have most of them on the above list.

That's not impressive. We've been turned into a solid mid table team in only a season and a quarter.

I think that's a good shout. Always thought he could make it as a coach.

Wouldn't be too disappointed with Morrison.

I was never convinced Jimmy was the right man. A poor communicator.
