like other a little underwelmed, but he will have my full support from the start, think he has earnt this chance.

Lets be honest there wasnt any top coachs available for us to sign.

In just one game I thought i saw some improvments in our attacking play, mainly the depth of our line and some aggresive defence.

Lets hope he when we get our playmakers back we can see us convert possision into points, also I hope he has a bit of luck on the injury front.

one thingi am glad is that it is sorted now, and we can start to look at recruitment for next season.

Good luck Richard.

Most fans will give him the chance, just voicing their opinion.

Many will be underwhelmed by the news I'm sure, won't stop them getting behind him.

and we should judge him on games when he is in charge, there was a definite improvement yesterday.

totally agree, Dobbins dont appear to have a problem mind.

He took us backwards in a big way, we haven;t played any expansive rugby since he has been in charge, his only saving grace is with the injuries we had hiding the fact he will only ever be an assistant.
As for losing our playmaker any half decent coach would have a decent enough backup playmaker, a thing he still didn;t manage to do this season after we got dykes in. He could maybe use the excuse he thought Horne would cover the position well enough if needed, but we found that not to be the case.
This year we lack ideas in the redzone as was highlighted on Sunday when we actually had a lot of possesion in the redzone and still failed to capitalise because of the lack of a playmaker. We cannot rely on Dykes playing every game and if they looked into his previous injuries they would have realised this and signed a reasonable backup player. To me that is a coaches job, wether he signs the players or not he needs to be able to say we need a winger a centre 2 playmakers etc to the board. Hopefully Agar can see where we are losing games and put it right.

Exactly, if he had some good ideas they would have been used.

See points 1 and 3.

Point 1 is the over welming factor in my mind.

Will Andy Last be promoted to assistant?

But then again I suppose you could look at Brian Kidd and Steve McClaren and say they were both at Man Utd under Ferguson during the success they have had over the last 10-15 years and neither of them ahve really gone on to be successful on their own.

If your going to be a success you have to have the skills and ability needed to start with regardless, whether you were a No.2 during successful or unsuccessful times.

Agar has the skills and ability from what I hear and now both he and the club feel the time is right for him to coach and lead the club forward as the head coach.

Good luck Rich, I hope your appointment is the start of a successful new dawn for us.

Seems like the most likley combo.

Yes
