You only had to look at the two coaches to see that Hendo is a coach who is on the up. Where Smith looked tired and rather lost.

Agree!

Smith looked knackered. Think this season has taken its toll on him, I would be surprised if he is still in place next season, even if they do go through unbeaten.
Think hendo was just frustrated

Just watched both coaches' post match interviews, Hendo pretty bright and upbeat despite the loss, still hopeful of getting 5th place.
Smith on the other hand looked absolutely wrung out, and then started making the usual excuses about the pitch, and about travelling down.

Rumours before the game had Smith being replaced by Rabbitoh's Maguire, who has today been sacked.

With it being said that Maguire is now staying in Australia. Hendo is now being mentioned as a replacement for Tony Smith.
He did his cause no harm at all last Saturday night.

Lets hope the delights of Warrington (are there any?) do not hold any attractions for him...............

Cant see Hendo going anywhere yet. Moved his family down here and seems settled

The guy has ambition and talent . When he took London job his family were in Castleford and that did not hold him back.
He will move, it may not happen yet, but it will happen.
I do not think David Hughes would hold him back either.

Hendo will not get the Wire job, not a chance on this earth is Simon Moran going to gamble on bringing in a junior unproved coach to turn around a failing monster.

I'm still unsure what Hendo has achieved. Maybe I'm missing something.

Am with you bosty, if he got offered a job with a big club why would he turn it down? It would be stupid of him if he chose to turn it down should an offer come up.
I would be gob smacked if he went to wire though, I am more with the other suggestion that Catalan might have tempted him.
Funny old thing I agree with WQ as well, I like the bloke (hendo not WQ) but what actually has he achieved? As a club so far we have achieved nothing apart from what was expected! Finish second to Hull KR, and unless we do summat pretty special in our next 3 games we will miss out on the MP game which in my mind is actually an under achievement this season.
So what actually has he done that makes him stand out.

NB

Throw in knocked out of the cup at the first attempt by a champ 1 team, beaten 3 times by HKR, finished behind the only decent full time team by a fair margin, unconvincing at home against Fev twice, beaten by Fax away.... Nothing special at all.

Calm down WQ calm down let's not kick the fella too much while we have him down.
Agreed though losing to to north Mexicans was annoying.
The fev thing is more a testament to the qualities of the fev coach (coaches) I feel.
I think one indication is how the players perform on Sunday, if we play the way we did on sat we should win by a wide margin, can the coach make sure the players come out with the right attitude!

With Andrew what a Super League Chairman would be looking at is his potential. He has shown that his teams, play a good brand of rugby. They are well disciplined and he gets a lot out of them. He is not afraid to make difficult decisions such has dropping star players who are not performing. He handles himself well with the media.
Over the last couple of seasons his teams have improved and I am sure he is on the radar of some chairman.
Okay he has not won anything, but it is still early days. Given the bigger budget of he SL clubs I think he would do well.
Anyway, time will tell.

Well disciplined???? You watch a different team to me. Invariably even when we win we are the wrong side of the penalty count, how that makes then disciplined am not sure! The rest I can't disagree with
