I assume you have evidence of this.

John Kear won the CC at Hull after beating 5 SL teams, including that year's top 3. He was sacked about 8 months later.
Moral of the story: one swallow doesn't make a summer.

| Brought in Moore, Griffin, Harauki. Signs Ablett on a 5 year deal.
He just loves a slow steady Eddie- mastered it at the Quins. Got rid of all the skill and speed and sent out a team of second rowers. The blokes useless.

Whereas you now have a coach that has moved the club forwards to bigger and better things.

Yes and it's rather personal, but I'm sure you knew that.

Or a coach who is young and still learning much like his team?
Mac knows where the door is if he wants out its just a case of will they are him out of it in a straight jacket, a coffin or will he just walk?

| he can't go much longer.
dammit i like the man. he comes over as a really decent guy who is a deep thinker about the game.
sadly as a coach he isn't good enough. no structure, no shape, no sense even in his decisions.
the squad needs three or four top class players but a top coach would have them in the top 5

Whereas now we have someone even more out of his depth. But that's not really the discussion here.

Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.

Your club is probably coming into a phase that Saints where in and still are around 3 years ago . Your main pivotal players at 1, 6, 7, 9 and 13 are less effective, mainly coming to the end of their careers. Your props are also losing there consistency of high performance. Brian Mac has a much harder job than previous coaches to create a dominance in superleague, his purple patch being the grand final last season. Top coaches availability is thin on the ground, Brian Noble perhaps but he only has a Plan A and a Plan A and a Plan A.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.

There has been a rash of renegotiated deals which, I understand, include re-signing fees which will be made to count under the 2012 cap - but which will leave plenty of space going forward.

what's his plan a? winning rugby league matches?
'No plan b' is such a simplistic over used cliche for coaches and managers.
