Might be a World Cup only appointment. Not much to do in between, I suppose.

Oh no I really hope this is not true just as Wakefield are growing as a team and club but I fear it may be according to a french newspaper L'Independent' report below:-
[i
XIII DE FRANCE Monday morning, the Federation will announce the name of Toulouse future coach of the France team. He will lead the destinies of the national selection this fall for the World Cup in England and France. President Carlos Zalduendo and the new coach will go to Toulouse to answer questions from the press. The willingness of the newly elected federal government was to appoint a coach to succeed Super League Aurélien Cologni, coach Lézignan. For less than a week a name insistently, that of the Englishman Richard Agar, the current coach of Wakefield. The former coach of Hull FC has never hidden his desire to return to France. Agar had even applied to succeed in Trent Robinson Dragons this summer. Richard Agar, it is officially named Monday unveiled the composition of its staff with perhaps Jerome Guisset, assistant coach of the Dragons and Stuart Donlan (see our edition of Wednesday, February 13).

He applied for the Catalans job.....?

here we go again

"return to France"?

I wonder if it's Kear, and the reporter has heard the words Wakefield and Hull and made the wrong connection.

Nick Rigg from the Wakefield Express tweeted the same about half an hour ago. I sincerely hope this is a part time role and agar isnt leaving us.

Im with slugger on this one its John Kear he was at Paris at one bit if you remember and his deal with Batley is if anything comes up he can go and if they want rid its no problem.
