one thing for sure is that they will get banned for that opinion

Have Bradford started their selection process or is it all still at rumour stage?

Mr Hood said there has been plenty of interest and they were still going through formalities with CVs etc.


I imagine they have a few ideas on who the better candidates who have applied are.

latest in the exmainer mentions no decision will be made on a replacement for brown till a board meeting

but expected that anderson steps up.. id go with that, keep some continuation as to what brown has started, a new coach would bring in his own ideas whereas anderson would carry on the good work by brown.

i say............i cant its a bad swear word !!

rlBrown tight lipped over coaching appointment.rl

He might be tight lipped, but the overall impression I get is that he will be recommending Baloo.

Paul Anderson

Baloo was on Radio Leeds this morning confirming he was interested in the job.

I think if he doesn't get the job this time he should be told that he'll be next in line and that only an Aussie coach should be getting a job ahead of him IMO because their methods are more advanced, thus providing him another learning opportunity prior to taking over.

Why keep putting it off, he has had a number of years as assistant, learning the ropes and will have picked up alot especially from N Brown.
Baloo has indicated he wants to be at the club by signing a 2 yr deal, he is thought of very highly in coaching circles and has respect both from the players and in the game in general this IMO says he is the man for the job.

i have a feeling that we will end up with the ex souths coach jt, with anderson as his 2nd in command with a view to replacing him after 2-3 years

Just can't see that sitting well with Fa'alogo.

the appointment would be interesting

how long has anderson being our assistant? just under brown, or did he help sharp aswell? 2 years under brown is a great education

i'd like to think that if a over seas coach was on the cards we would be looking at Steve Flooks, got a lot of time for this guy and read a lot of his stuff in RLCM seems to have a simiar aproach to coaching as Tony Smith and Nathen Brown, still reckon Baloo is about 2/3 years off being a permenant head coach. if he did get the role would we be wise to bring in a director of coaching ala Wires just to give baloo a bit of support and guidance. coaching is a very lonly world if the results dont go your way so support would be needed.
