When you've known as much success as he has, at dominant club... Well, this was always going to be a different challenge.

And I wouldn't judge anybody off social media too much (though he should be smart enough to realise that others will).

In fairness to him, we the fans don't know the details of what is going on, and so we are by definition Ill-informed.

In fairness to us, we haven't been told much.

None of which would matter if we were winning. Let's hope we stay up, and we get to find out what the plan is, which coach we have lined up and what sort of team Rovers are going to try to be.

It is a worry tho when someone in such a prominent position, doing a job that he is untried in, making gaffs by replying on social media of all places to the fans he's trying to get onside by being aggressive.

Apparently he wasn't being aggressive and anyone who read his tweets to be offering out a fan in the car park at cp at 8am this morning were wide of the mark. He just likes to do things face to face, which is probably difficult a lot of the time when you're 6 foot 5 or whatever he is.

On the love rugby gossip page they say there is 3 in running for Kr job Steve McNamara, Justin Morgan, terry matterson.. and we won't be signing Daniel Mortimer he is staying in Nrl and dandy tiles is going to be released

Put your money on Terry Matterson as new coach

Don't know how I'd feel about that, but certainly would have the surprise factor Hudgell was on about.

Only my thought but I don't think he is a proven coach. Yes he did well under Neil Henry and ok taking USA to finals. But left cas in a pickle before they got rid. I think again he is in the McNamara bracket maybe slightly better..

McNamara would be my last choice anyone but him

Matterson's record with Cas (58 wins, 4 draws and 86 defeats according to wiki, if we trust that) doesn't look too bad, for a team that had to rebuild after relegation, and sell players from time to time. But in that promotion season of 2007 they won 17 of 18 league games and their play-off games, so his team's SL record then looks pretty poor.

On the plus side, he seems to be well thought of down under, and he is familiar with how things work over here. And looking more closely, after a difficult 2008, from 2009 to 2011 Cas won 76 league points from 81 SL regular round games - respectable.

Matterson was a good coach for cas. Always had us in and around the top 8 bar our first seasons back in SL. Had us playing good expansive rugby , though we could never defend . The season after he left brought in Millward and I think more Cas fans appreciated matterson after a year with basil.

That's ok then as defending is not in our nature

Not sure any of those 3 candidates mentioned inspire much confidence. McNamara best option for me imo but with hudgell stating that fans will be pleasantly surprised with the plans in place I'm hoping for another candidate to emerge.

The best coaches already have jobs, anyone we get will be a gamble. Who would come to a bottom four super league club if they did not have to prove thier worth? Any of the three mentioned will do me. The best option for me is McNamara or stick with Webster. What we realy need is some grunt up the middle. Two big nasty props please.

Webster is not good enough to take us forward

Thats what Wakey said last season..
