Probably gonna get lambasted for this.
Big Mac for me but unsure he would accept due to cost constraints……….

The other is another Wakey lad. Craig Lingard. On a budget and nothing to lose. Knows his stuff even though I’m not bias…….. The other potential red herring is JD. But who knows these days. For all the doom and gloomers on here, you got what you wanted just like CC getting booted. We stayed up as I said we would. MC knows what he’s doing and loves the club. We need a money tree, so maybe that could be on its way……………..? Has anyone thought of that one?

Bull

If we are appointing a British coach from the championship then we have gone backwards.
I'll accept the decision if they want to progress and get a significantly better coach, but if not we should have let Willie develop.

If we are looking for a budget coach they will probably promote Mash .He has done a fantastic job with the young lads

You can say that again.

I wouldn't take anything from MA but he is NOT a proven SL coach (or quality NRL coach) and that surely is a MUST otherwise what is the point in not retaining WP?

The JD ship sailed a few years ago. The same JD whose Souths dumped the Roosters out of the play-offs yesterday and is two games from a Grand Final? Not a chance.

Never say never

I think in this case we can safely say that it will not happen, not until he's (Demetriou) been sacked a few times and is scrating around for a job

Maybe just maybe, Willie had other options( back room staff at HULL FC) perhaps and Willie did not want to take another season with us? Works both ways………..?

Smith has already said that isn't the case.
