Just watched his interview and I thought he said all the right things. Really liked his comments about everything we do between now and our first game next year being about winning. He does sound like the sort of guy who can maybe instill that winners mindset in a group of players.

Most important thing now is putting the right team around him. Especially on the S&C side. It sounds like his number 1 priority is getting the players as fit as they can possibly be. The club need to give him whatever he needs to achieve that.

Good luck with that, we’ve signed pensioners for next year and have to jettison at least six including 3 quota players but I guess money talks IF we’ve got it.

Gleeson would be a very good addition to the coaching team but I'd doubt he'd leave Wire , Money talks I guess .

Indeed...he is already in the Pearson club of taking the p***,...'fit and hungry'...,he does know the signings he has to work with, so far, are 35, 34, 33, 32x2 and 31yr old mercenaries who are pretty far from 'hungry', except for cash, and have suffered a serious injury or three?

Cartwright was a very, very good player and has an old school ethic but appointing nearly 60yr old assistants comes with obvious risks never mind giving him Dads Army to coach. As a head coach he has a less than 45% win rate over nearly 200 games...not exactly brilliant nor would that get anywhere in the next 3 years. Cartwright himself has chased the money around and not shown much loyalty as a coach. Hull will be his 5th club in 10yrs. Many question marks.

It's all short termism for no real gain. 3 years is enough for Myler and co to empty the coffers and sail into the sunset I suppose...but then what?

Could Briers leave Brisbane a year early?, or even Paul Cooke, attack coach at Myler's old club?

I think if Briers was going to leave the Brisbane lifestyle , He'd come back as a first grade coach imo.
I'd like Cartwright to bring in a fresh pair of eyes to the set up but Aussie coaches over here rarely bring their own staff over .

Grix has a 2year contract so what ever happens either he will still be here next season working with the new coach or the club will have to pay him off

Or he could go back into coaching in the Championship .

If I've learnt anything from appointing Cartwright, is it's much easier to spot a Rovers fan posing as a Hull one.

John Davidson reckons Myler and Grix didn't get on at Warrington, so wonder if Grixs days at the club are numbered?

One in particular who has recently joined us. He doesn't seem at all happy which is always a positive.

If Grix and Myler don't get on, they hide it well, both have spoken positivity about each other.

If they didn't think either Ellis or Cummins would have been put in charge.

I do wonder if we have beaten London and Cas, would Grix have got it, we interviewed Cartwright a few weeks ago and suddenly the deal was done not long after the loss.

I think I said when Myler was first announced that I didn't think Grix would be a fan of the decision. Allegedly, Myler had a thing with another Warrington players wife, who is great mates with Grix and there is some bad blood there

Doesn't sound like he is keen to leave going my his interview in the HDM today
