John Kear is the best English coach who get the best out of what he has at his disposal...................................................

There are not many Brits, but it should not be an Aussie, Kiwi.

Would add, try not to have a club coach.

Their training techniques are far better then ours which is why they are far fitter and more skillfull

I'd agree and Kear would be my choice. He can get his teams up for big games and bring the best out of otherwise fairly average players.

That being said, you could literally pick the best coaching team in the world and put them in charge of the England side and we'd still win bugger all. We need better players, not a better coach.

Shaun Edwards would be great for the England team and the game as a whole but would he be interested?

I hear Bobby Goulding may be available soon. He is English, is a great motivator, has coached at the highest level and has international experience

You are right he would be great, but there's more chance of you and me doing the job than him at the moment.

Of the English coaches available Kear is about the only option, but I have a terrible fear that McNamara is the man in waiting...

100% correct IMO.

Tell me how? A popular misconception. There is no miracle training scenario, there is no wonder coaching style, there is no difference at the elite level.

Go and ask someone like Morley. His main thing after a year or so of being here was that he couldn't believe how the players looked after what they ate a lot more on Oz.

THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE!!!

It's the amount of talent at one's disposal as a coach, trainer, conditioner compared to that of the UK.

Please dear God, no

the funniest thing about it, is that its the headline story on the BBC sport website

They will both batter us downunder, unless some of these young players turn into the next Murphy etc..., but with the standard of SL compared with the NRL that would be a miracle.

As for the next coach I'd go with Justin Morgan.

I hear Bobby Goulding may be available soon. He is English, is a great motivator, has coached at the highest level and he also has international experience. What more could you ask for?

I think I might apply!!!

For one thing I can't do any worse and until the entire RL system in this country is revamped top to bottom with specific aims targets and ACHIEVABLE goals then all the game can look forward to in the future is the odd test match win here and there.

There is one good reason however why I may not apply..........


































I coudn't put up with all the stick all the the other armchair coaches would give me
