That is a way better option than McDermot but don't hold your breath as it won't happen.

Agreed. We should move quick before he's snapped up elsewhere, it's likely Rugby Union will come calling soon.

We want the coach who nearly kept London in Super League to replace the coach who Did keep Wakefield in Super League?

We need to aim higher.

As you well know you are comparing apples and oranges. That said I've no idea about Ward I don't pay enough attention to anyone other than Wakey and that is being tested to the limit

They lost by 9 points at Belle Vue and gave us a good hiding at Trailfinders, think he's higher already!

I'd have Kear back in a shot personally, I still think our group of players is pretty good with some decent youth. I think he'd turn us round in 3/4 games

Lose at Leigh and where do we go from there?
Because I can see them destroying us.

Go knock on John's door

To a point I agree in that Ward was under very little pressure at London, big fish small pond.

However at the moment, we have sunk back to being a very similar club to London, we shouldn't be but we are.

After a few years playing and competing like a conventional team, we are now back to needing to find the mongrel spirit to survive as SL underdogs. In which case Ward might just fit the bill. He's certainly not tried and tested as Kear was but he showed enough to suggest he can get results from less than promising players.

Who would you suggest? Nobody immediately springs to mind. In a perfect world, JD would be the man but there is more chance of you or me getting the gig to be honest.

Why would he want to?

He got absolutely lambasted by the turncoats one here. If I were him and after all he had done for the club, I'd tell Wakey fans where to shove it. He's better off at Bradford.

Personally I'd rather go for a Wane or Kear....... Or an up and coming NRL coach who has good recommendations like JD did.
I think it needs someone with either a lot of experience or someone removed from the emotion who just wants to get a result and move on in 2 years.

If we had to go unproven English I'd go for James Ford at York.

Me too. Never wanted him to leave in the first place.
He can have all the Andrew Fifita money for me.
