Hasler will be too busy handling his court case I expect

I'd have thought that could have been established through a few phonecalls, rather than a madcap dash down under.

| Agreed. Ridiculous to think we just landed with a blank piece of paper and no idea of intentions.
The trip to Australia is looking like a complete waste of money.

I agree that it is "ridiculous to think that we just landed with a blank piece of paper and no idea of intentions". Are you stating that is what actually happened, or quite correctly IMO that it would be ridiculous to think that?

| So if we safely say it's Price who's got the gig then what next. What happens to all the current background and support staff/coaches etc. Are they gone?
Who will be assistant? Surely Agar can't keep his job can he? Will price bring aussie staff over?
We have 9 players who have left. Massive rebuilding job on.

I've no idea what actually has happened but I find it incomprehensible that we didn't know who was interested in the role before flying out to meet them. I'm quite sure we would have tele/Skype pre screened many candidates beforehand. We've got to have done, surely, right, it's just logical?
To hear stories that Brennan and Maguire don't want to move to England just makes me mad. Not at them but at us for not knowing this already.
Feels very very amateurish.

Are you privy to Fitzpatrick's itinerary? Maybe you are you suggesting that he jumped on the next available flight by Keystone Cops Airline (hopefully strapped to the wing of a bi plane rather than travelling in an Emirates seat) clutching a blank piece of paper from Moran with a simple heading "Find a coach, any coach and if it's not the one we talked about in the pub yesterday stay out of sight at least they'll all think that you are trying your best?
I'm sure that there would have been contact before Karl's "madcap dash", but, serious intent does require a bit more than "Hello it's the Warrington Wolves here have you got five minutes for a chat". Imagine the furore, if our intrepid CEO hadn't manged to get his backside over there and we found out later that for example some people's favourite, Maguire would have considered our offer if only....

Yes because the club went to Aus solely to get Maguire.
Must have missed them interviewing Pay and us appointing Price.

Can't be an elephant hook, it's already left the room

Spot on can't argue with any of that, whether it's 'the Price is right' or not it applies to whoever came in unless it was going to be an internal appointment

They will more than likely all leave paving the way for Price to bring his own staff in, I'd have thought.
Let's look at it more realistically it's effectively 7 players leaving who should be leaving. The exceptions being Hiku and Saveilo.
I think we're a winger, halfback, prop and interchange nine short but the core of our team is still pretty good with the likes of; Ratchford, Lineham, Atkins, Hill, Clark, Currie, Cooper, Westerman, Westwood.

Wirefan, as someone stated elsewhere despite the negative and positive posting stances we all generally want the same thing don't we?
At the moment, the first eight words of your first sentence sum up the situation perfectly, probably for everyone on here.
