Steve McNamara now coaching the top side in SL.

I think Pearson always had Last in his thoughts as an interim coach.
He knows we need a big name and well respected coach at the club.
The coaching needs change from top to bottom at all levels of the club so that the younger players at the club are aligned to the first team,
There is no room for sentiment in business.
Club Hull needs to be dismantled and local players need to perform to be selected

Well that would be ambition for you
Prepared to sit for seven years under Radford
Several months of Interim Head coach
Then accepts a job of Head of youth
Wouldnt surprise me

I wouldn't be suprised either !!.

Last doesn't want the job he would rather stay on as assistant.

Wonder who we're considering then, Purtill?

If that was the case then he would have it now, it has to be someone from the outside.

I could be wrong but, didn't Last turn down the chance to take charge (or put his name on the list) once before?

must be gutting your negativity regards results hasn't bore fruit, you're such a doom and gloom merchant!

Silly. Try the match thread for discussion of last night's result and assess Tone on there. I'm very chipper this morning.

Shane Flanagan sacked as Assisant Coach at the Dragons.

He still has a year to serve on his head coaching ban in the NRL - not sure if this also applies to Super League.

I'd love him or Paul Green , issue with Flanagan would be he wouldn't stick around long, but if he could have the impact of Holbrook or Mcguire if would be worth a short stay.

Nothing against Last personally, but the club is crying out for someone to come in and take the team by the scruff of the neck. Even fans from other teams say that we’d become one of the big clubs with the right appointment.
Think without covid we’d have gone and got someone, but not sure now.

I know money is very very tight, but I don’t think we can afford not to go and get someone that might turn us round.

I’d settle for someone coming in for a couple of years, turn the culture round, then go back to the NRL.

Bit like Maguire did at Wigan.

Who that is though is the million dollar question

2-3 years?

Utter nonsense. A good leader and tactician could turn fortunes around within 6 months as we are hardly bottom of the table fodder with the players we have.
Anybody taking the "cliched 2-3 years" is:

a. The wrong person for the job
b. Out of a job within a year
c. Won't get past the interview stage
