that Brian Noble is coming to Wakefeld and John Kear is joining Castleford? Shush because it is a secret at the moment, but I personally am very happy with that outcome.

I think that we would have the better end of the deal but I would not be overly happy with Noble as I would prefer an Aussie to come over and bring some new ideas with him.

Not heard that no and again hope it isnt true! next rumour?

Yes I have seen this comment made on a number of other posts. I'm not sure why everyone thinks that untried and untested would be a good thing for Wakefield right now?
Personally I am very happy with Brian Nobles track record and would settle for the same at Wakefield next year. Plus he is highly regarded in RL and would be a clear sign of Wakefields ambition at this moment in time.

Why?

Sorry couldn't resit!

I've heard Richard agar. Think we could better personally

Where is the ambition in that?

I think Noble would be ideal. He's improved every team he has taken on. He couldn't take Wigan to the next level, but he certainly set them on the way. The next couple of years is going to be a mix of young 'uns and decent signings, and Noble would do nicely for me.

Couldn't have said it better myself Slugger!

because he's 'old school' and whatever his benefits we need somebody younger who will transform the club from top to bottom....I also dont think anyone has been approached or in mind to become the next coach of WTW, YET!

Think again!

Admittedly, I'm no expert, but I can't honestly see a lot of difference between Noble and Kear, other than Noble has generally had more resources at his disposal and has been more successful because of it. It won't be pretty, that's for sure.

Ok we will see pretty soon then...

Totally agree - Nobby is another dinosaur, cut from the same cloth as JK; we need fresh ideas, new techniques and a change of culture.

It's not for me - I'm out.
