He's got limited options in the short to medium term, unfortunately.

That 'quote' button top right of a persons post is a useful button.

Yes, its only players (or player-coaches, of course).

I feel very bemused and perplexed by this appointment.

The board's common sense is mind boggling to say the least.

Had Sharp departed the club,when the club ,was on a high, then the appointment of an untried No2,could have been justified.

I feel,this is not the time to appoint a coaching team,with very limited experience.

The current situation at the club,needed a complete overhaul,
as Sharp and Agar are equally culpable in the demise of a side,which has fallen from grace, so dramatically.

Other sides have has lengthy injuries,this season - but they havent lost their attacking structure.

It will be interesting,to see how many season tickets are renewed for next season.

I can't see how the club,can attract the same level of interest ,from the public, there is not a lot of room on the quota, to deliver a signing,who would capture the fans imagination.

It looks ,as if the 'trip' to Australia,was to establish a link to players agents,as the board knew, the incoming coach,is not known to players or agents in the NRL.

Thoroughly 'underwhelmed' again!!

Agreed, but I think his appointment demonstrates the positive side of the franchising arrangements. I have no doubt we'd have brought in another highly paid dour Aussie if there was the threat of relegation, but longer term security takes away that pressure and I think it's a brave move.

I agree there's nothing he can do this season, but we've got 8 players OOC with undecided futures - plenty of room here for Agar to start to build his own squad either in terms of retention or replacement.

R Horne
G Horne
Washbrook
Carvell
King
Wheeldon
Dale? Not sure whether he's gone permanently
Thackray

True,thats whats happened at Warrington.

Good move as he is a good, young, British coach. He did wonders at York befor joining you lot.

4 of those players are English props.

With very little flexibility for manoevure on the quota,

How many available British props could do a better job,than Carvell King and Thackray?

To be fair, the word available is erroneous, there are few top quality British forward kicking around.

That was at York,the jump from NL to Super League is massive.

i just woke up ....I had a terrible dream, we appointed our assistant coach and put an untested young lad as his right hand man ...phew

Thank christ weve signed Mick Crocker...right !

Typo!!
