Had to laugh in the first half when he said he'd have run our first penalty. Brian Noble spent years at Bradford and Wigan sticking 2 fingers up at every opportunity.

Never liked noble but I would take him at Leeds now

After what's been reported in the past about how much he hates Leeds I'd rather have Lance back. I'm sure we can find a decent coach who doesn't have an inbuilt hatred of our club

Ian Millward......??

That's funny, because the last couple of performances have reminded me of Wigan under Millward.

I'd take Daniel Anderson or Graham Murray in a heartbeat.

Most of you will already know I don't rate McDermott and Lowes at all, but without a (significantly) better option we would be foolish to bin them both mid season.

Painful as it might be, we currently have little option than to stick with them.

if the call is made to ditch them at the end of the season then imo they should go now then at least a new coach can have a really god look at what need improving ,who to ditch/promote from within and then he still has time to do the external recruitment for next year and hits the ground running in pre-season.

what if the new coach is already employed and therefore currently unavailable?

Then he needs to have a future member of his staff around the club to start the planning now because there's some changes that need to be made and waiting will see another below par recruitment drive.

jason taylor from nrl ex rabbitars young and full of ideas could be the man

Isn't he the one who got in a fight with one of his players at an official club function?

I honestly don't think it matters.

I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but if McDermott isnt the choice for next season, he needs to go now, even if we cant get who we want in immediately.

As soon as the decision is made that McDermott is going, he needs to go. It isnt the best thing for the team, or fair on McDermott for us to keep him in a position which he wont keep.

I would rather we dropped him and brough in a stop-gap than keep in him a position we dont think he is suitable for.

yes, although never really came to light what happened other than the fact david faalogo knocked him out

Matt Elliot is out of a job. Penrith players and fans are gutted he's going. It's their fooked up board who have pushed him out after a few seasons of messing him around. Elliot would be awesome for us.

kev knows the score. player coach for me.

Mac will not be sacked so lets hope he wakes up this morning looks in the mirror and tells himself this job is too big for him and does the decent thing.

Is Daniel Anderson still free? He came over to stains mid way though 05 iirc after millwardgate. On on the blower Mr Sleeve...

To be honest mate i'd have Hans Christian Anderson at the minute!

get him in and give him a free hand regarding recruitment and, if he doesn't want the job, finding a new coach

Murray has a track record for improving under achieving teams, for having a tough pack, for playing an "entertaining" style (properly) and he would be granted a long grace period to turn things around due to his previous record with Leeds.

I'm not saying he's the messiah, but he would be a massive step in the right direction right now. I agree that he should be given a completely free reign to reshape the playing side of the club, and that succession planning should be on the coach's job description.

mcdermotts position has to be nearly untenable doesn't it?

Murray IN.

I honestly think BMD will be here for the rest of the season regardless of what happens. GH has a reputation for loyalty and I think that this does blinker him to obvious failure and mistakes.

We should only change coach mid season if the right long term answer is available, otherwise we should stick with the current coach for the rest of the season, no matter how painful this may be.

Is never gonna happen. He left the club under a cloud and GH will not entertain him. As a coach he was superb tho.
