Never specified an NRL coach however I think Noble would be the prime candidate at the moment. Not his biggest fan but think he could get us back on the right track which is what we need at the moment.

Temporary job until the end of the season or until #cough# pizzez him off?

Wouldn't have to throw money at Noble, he'd be relatively cheap I'd have thought.

Indeed

After Easter Brian Noble To Leeds Rhinos And Brian McDermott To Hull FC, If Results Aint Going Leeds And FC Still

why on earth all this crap about noble.....whats he done thats so good that fc would want him? may aswell see the season out with agar then go for an oz coach

not the biggest fan of noble but god hes better then agar and hes the sort of guy and coach that would certainly improve us and what he did at bradford, wigan and espciaslly the crusaders proves that hes a decent coach and better then agar but i would like us to go for a good aussie coach

A couple of super league titles, challenge cup, world club champions.

how long ago.....times have changed and so has the rugby

Took a poor crusaders side to the top 8.

Stop chucking facts around.

speaking of aussies - Trent Robinson is a class act and will do well at Perpignan - I think he's another Nathan Brown !

has Edwards been sheared?

Isn't Noble a coach who would demand the cash is thrown around. Look at his track record. Nearly bankrupted Bradford with the Harris affair. Signed Fielden for Wigan and in all rights they should have been thrown out for that and the year he was at Crusaders they went bang.

Looking at your clubs financial governance do you think he fits the profile?

If nothing else this thread shows the following,

A) some people who claim to be knowledgeable about rugby can make themselves look stupid.
B) if Agar ever goes you would have to be an absolute idiot to take the job as you ain't going to please everyone even before you have a team on the park.

I ask this in all seriousness. Do people sit at their computers in Hull with cans of Special Brew on hand rendering them idiotic before they type?

The idea that Edwards would even consider coaching us is beyond silly. The idea that he is an unproven coach is frankly laughable. He is a leader of men and one who has innovative ideas which have worked within a sport that he hardly knew before starting. I am no Lawrence Dallaigo fan or RU fan for that matter but he holds Edwards in the highest of regards having considered him an outsider from League when he joined Wasps.

Equally anyone who thinks Noble is not good enough is not worth discussing. He is simply the best British coach around and he is available apparently. The question might be asked if he actually wants to do it again.

So those two are not good enough clearly but we will go for an untried Aussie assistant on the basis that Brown has apparently done a good job at the Giants without actually winning anything let alone got anywhere near a grand final. Oh and McGuire simply tweaked the 3rd best team in the comp (elimination final in 09) that was developed by Noble.

Still what do I know I'm not from Hull and have lived in the London area for 20 yrs.
