| Good news for the next 12 months and i hope that it inspires him and the team to win a trophy this year so that it will make it easier for him to get a job in Australia next year.
If the club is looking at Baloo as the next coach i would love them to send him over to OZ for three months to see one of the NRL teams pre season preparations. Maybe at Wests . Really give some value added benefit sto his assitant role in preparation for him taking over.

Following the announcement of a new contract to coach the Huddersfield Giants in the 2012, Nathan Brown admitted the decision was a relatively easy one to make;
“It was a pretty simple decision really; we always said that we would wait to make a decision until after the baby was born and the family are really happy here. When you are far away from home it is important to know that my wife and kids are happy. We have had a lot of good support from everyone at the club and the kid’s school and different things like that so we consider ourselves pretty lucky. We are all enjoying the experience and when you are living and working so far away from home I think that’s very important.
“As a club we seem to be improving year on year and that is something we intend to keep on doing. We have a good blend of players in the prime of their careers and younger guys who are continually improving, there’s no doubt that this is a club on the rise.”
With Brown signed as Head Coach of the claret and gold for the 2012 season it will bring his tenure at the club to a minimum of four years, he praised the support of his extended family and staff;
“The fact that all the family back home are behind us and very supportive about us staying here makes a big difference. We thought we would be staying here for three years but we have all remained open minded about it.
“The players deserve a lot of credit for how we have progressed for the last three years and obviously the back room staff plays a massive part too. We have been very fortunate to have a group of players who are willing– they work hard off the field and take it onto the field on a gameday.”

Huddersfield Giants will be led into the 2012 Super League season by Nathan Brown as their Head Coach.
The popular Australian has penned a 12 month extension to end weeks of media speculation surrounding his future.
Giants Managing Director Richard Thewlis said:
“This will be viewed as great news by everyone connected with our club and a wonderful fillip for us all as we enter the second half of the season sitting second in Super league and still in the Challenge Cup.
"Our progress under Nathan has been excellent and to have him as our head coach for a further season is simply marvellous. We have respected his wishes in making this decision in his own time as it’s a big call for him to make but we are naturally delighted that he remains here with his family in West Yorkshire. We can all now knuckle down to our respective tasks in the knowledge that we have a man at the helm who we all feel here can bring silverware to this great club which is our objective. I am sure that the fans will show their appreciation to Nathan and his family in the coming weeks ahead and like them look forward to watching his team evolve and improve as we progress this and now next year too.”

| Well i am probably the only one that doesnt think that this is good news. I believe that he should stay but should have commited longer. If you look at our drop in form last year it all ed around his (understandable) decision to go back home. This year when there was non-comital signs coming from him we get results like crusaders. I just think that these things are tied and that this time next year we will be in the same positiion. He is a great manager and i would keep him longer but from personal experience this short term stuff and uncertainty is not good.

| I just think they need to clear matters like this up early doors. It was slightly different this time due to the Brown's not wanting to make a decision until after the baby was born, however next season it does feel like it would be Nathan's last season with us at which point Paul Anderson will take over.
Next season it needs to be sorted up front, that way there can be no doubts in anybodies minds and the players can just play.

| Oh they might of been uncertainty this year, but we are still 2nd (joint top) of super league and NB has alot to do with that. That said it is absolutely brilliant news! Also agree I think the players expect Paul Anderson to step up next, so these long term signings won't be a hard choice.

I thought our drop in form had , at least, 3 factors1. Nathan's situation +
2. Hodgson's announcement that he is going to the Wolves +
3. 1 & 2 above happening when our games were - wigan warrington wigan warrington bulls and saints [5 of the 6 games were against the top 3 in SL]
We have NB for 18 months. He has made it clear he would never go to another SL side. So it is likely that after 4 years he will return to Oz.
In the summer game how many leading Oz coaches have done more than 4 years, I can't think of any.
I think having NB for 4 years is fantastic.

| I think he will only leave if he gets a job in the NRL or his burnt down house gets rebuilt. Jon Sharpe was on a rolling 1 year contract, and i'd expect this to be the same.
