Some interesting Names, I don't know much about some of the Aussie coaches. Not sure I would want Justin Morgan though. The 100-1 shot made me laugh.

A name which is strangely missing from that list is Paul Anderson.

Remember when he was at Huddersfield, he improved them from where they'd been under Nathan Brown. Had them winning the League Leaders' Shield. Huddersfield! Nobody else has looked close to doing that. He had one bad half season and they sacked him.

Did Super League give up on him too early as a head coach?

Didn't he join our coaching staff at one point?

Surprised that Jason Ryles is not on that list. He is at the point where the next step would be head coach of a super league club before getting a head coaches job in the NRL.
Pretty sure he is back at the storm as assistant to Bellamy.

No he is at the Roosters now, he's agreed a deal for 2024 to return to Storm as assistant so he's a no go.

Just stuck £10 on Monaghan, not because I want him just that I like the 25/1 odds and a fair few on here would be happy for him to take the role.

I think i remember this, academy coach maybe?

Yes, Academy Head Coach prior to joining the England pathways set up in 2022.

Anderson was our Academy head coach.

Maybe he doesn't want a head coaching role and prefers the development side. But given there are some coaches who bounce around from head coach job to head coach job and never seem to do very well I thought it was odd that Anderson just had one shot when he had been doing well.

Reminds me of John Pendlebury - remember he had Halifax 3rd in the league and a year later he was done never to be seen again as a head coach.

If we can't get Holbrook now, then let Chambers have a run until the end of the year and take our time.

Holbrook turned Saints around in a few months and were a whisker off (drop goal extra time) the GF in 2017 beaten by LLS winners Castleford coached by Powell. :-S

I agree that the last thing we should do is just take the "lucky dip" approach and grab whoever is available.

One thing that the last few years has taught us is the idea [ijust get rid, it can't get any worse[/i is false. It can get worse and it has.

In 2017 we were saying it can't get any worse than it is under Tony Smith. Within about 18 months under Price things were worse. Then we thought the dire rugby we were seeing under Price when every year we went out in the first round of the playoffs was as bad as it could get. But from here, the idea of being a playoff team with guys like Hill, Cooper and Charnley sounds like the good times...

I would rather we had some serious behind the scene conversations with real top coaches. If one isn't available for now but might be available at the start of 2025 then go with a temporary coach until then.

If we need to take time to rework the structure of the club, bring in a top Director of Rugby who really knows what to do in terms of recruitment and development, and then let them identify their choice of head coach, lets go for that.

If we just keep taking lucky dip on new coaches then we'll keep getting frustrated until one time we strike lucky, have a couple of years of success and then lose that coach to the NRL. Then if our underlying club structure isn't right, it's back to the randomness of lucky dip because the only reason we were good was because of that coach.
