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?

You taking the mick or what

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

that french team played well for the first half in each game .. for the players under his disposal he did a good job at the four nations. wont get england job though

Does the job need an existing full time coach? Apart from a meaningless mid-season game what does the England coach do between March and October?

Maybe the job requires somebody involved a coaching set-up, but not a necessarily the head coach.

Kris Radlinski has been obvious by his presence the last couple of weeks.

im going to throw a name into the hat that has

international experiance has a player

respect of both players and fans

comes accross has a great motivator

passionate for the british game

and is english

karl harrison

i know some will laugh but he`s exactly the kind of guy we need in the dressing room to fire us up.
