I laughed at that one. Perhaps you're growing on me.

I get what you are saying and Steady was a it of a freak, but AH was an outstanding natural youngster who easily slotted in on the wing.

Yeah, I know. Like warts or dandruff!

I wonder if RW, BN and RM would notice a stray Whino eavesdropping. To hear all this he can't be far away. In fact, are you sat at the same table?

It was the huge ear trumpet that gave him away.

News International reporter ??

Why Adrian Vowles,,, wots he done mate, crazy people stating Vowles, not a bad player but a coach, do u watch Rugby !!!! r we going fwd or back, ive read some of your posts on most forums, very contra(dick)ing !!!

Go for Poching! We've missed a trick not getting him on board, maybe there's someone with brains in charge of Cas!

You are Brian Noble and I claim my £5







Seriously though, if what you're putting is true, it makes me wonder how much influence Goldy has at our club if he is invited to meetings like that. Especialyl if he is slagging the current coach off. Not exactly a good impression on a new coach!

According to hull daily mail Daniel Anderson is front runner at mo u could do worse I think nobby wud be great would love him at kr

"Official sources at Castleford have confirmed Morgan met with directors at the West Yorkshire club this week."

Just for those interested... it wasn't me that was spying. I was safely at work.

My Mrs was sat on the very next table having been for a swim, and despite being a diehard Rhinos fan, she looks like she wouldn't even know what a Rugby ball was. So that's probably why they're talking so openly. I was just regurgitating her emails to you lot as I thought you'd be interested.

Oh, and RMc offered to buy her a coffee. Perhaps he's trying to recruit her for his shed.

Yep. He's meeting them all this week..

Heart says Kear, head says Anderson then Noble. I would think RHinos would settle for any of those 3 + Morgan. We have an abundance of riches available at the moment it seems.

So, let's get this straight. She starts spreading nasty gossip about Goldy dissing his current boss, and he offers to buy her a coffee. I hope she had the good grace to apologise.

Is it just me, or should we all be feeling pretty confident of a licence with the likes of Anderson; Morgan; and Noble all being strongly linked with the vacancy?

Couldn't see any of these expressing any interest if we were deemed as unlikely to even be playing in Super League.

And - for what it's worth - i'd have any of them!

Think the licence is pretty much certain. Announcement is on the 26th and I expect an announcement on the new coach the same week assuming we are confirmed as in.

Kear can get the tactics right and can manage a middle of the road squad, but would he take us anywhere ?

Anderson would be good for us, but could he handle our small squad without much money to bring any other players in ?

Noble did well with Bradford, but do we want to change to his Bradford style of play ?

To be honest i'd be happy with any of these 3 but my favourite would be Anderson.

I'm sorry but I can't understand why any Cas fans would be remotely pleased at getting Kear as coach!

The fact that Anderson and Noble seem to be in the frame shows how far we've come as a club and I wouldn't mind either of them. I suspect Anderson may have a bit more clout in terms of attracting overseas players but the way our club is going with a strong emphasis on home-grown talent that's maybe not the plus point it used to be.

I was reading an interesting article regarding Matt Parish at Salford.

Most people are saying he is an unknown and has had no head coaching position. Brian Noble has kicked-off to the media about no pathways for British coaches and we are looking at un-tried Aussies.

This couldn't be further from the truth. Parish at 42 has had 12 years experience as an assistant coach. He also has the equivalent of a grade 4 coaches badge. Only John Kear in the UK has this level. Maybe its time for Cas to look at someone like him.

Peter Gentle ??

I agree, Kear is a big game coach not a season coach. I wouldn't be happy with his or Morgan's appointment





I was reading an interview with him and he expressed his desire of coaching in the NRL soon, all I could think was how p*ssed off I would be if I was a Salford fan and the first thing the new coach said was pretty much "this is just a pit stop as soon as the NRL comes knocking I'll be on my way"

Daniel Anderson would do very nicely, we could do alot worse than him. Get him on board!

According to him on twitter, he is not interested. "Staying in Aus".

Apparently a certain Mr Millward has been liked with the post.....

:O

Lets be clear, that any TM, Dave Woods, Parish, Morgan, Gentle is only taking a SL job to facilitate an NRL job.

Others like Milward or Anderson may differ. That doesnt make it a bad call, but you have to be realistic.

I think we are not in the righ place for John Kear, and thats not bias or anything, I just dont think it is right for him or us.

I have made my views clear earlier in this thread, but the strange aversion to a person passing through is weird, there is only Wigan and Warrington at the moment can probably reject people on that basis.
