Doesn't Mal own a vineyard or something and was too busy to consider it last time around.

Why would that have changed?

green grocer i think.

I think he may want to stay at home and mind the shop.

For younger viewers Greinke also played for Saints and was a budget Josh Perry of his day.

Agreed, potentially two Anderson's in contention. Not much to get excited about IMO.

Just out of interest, alot of contributors to the forums have lamented Brown for his lack of passion, fire, enthusiasm etc.

Would people rather have an experinced coach with less passion or affinity to the club, or a coaching team that have a long standing passion for the club with less experience of being head coaches?

My only concern with Brown from the start was, would he carry on his bad choices he did at The Giants, and he did for me, for some reason I could never warm to his persona.

Nathan Brown has been a good coach for us. He could become a great coach by 9pm Saturday!!!

I'd think about giving up watching the sport if we hired Noble or Kear. Likewise Betts, Agar and Rea. I am sure they are all lovely guys, but no, thanks.

Difficult question to answer, I think passion will only get you so far so I would go for experience. We,ve had lots of coaches over the superleague era and everyone have been different in experience, personality and passion.
We,ve has Rush full of passion no experience and Potter with experience no passion. probably the coach who has both will probably be Millward.
Brown has rarely dropped his guard in the media for me I have my own preference below who have all brought different things to the table.

1 McCrae
2 Anderson
3 Millward
4 Brown
5 Hanley
6 Rush
7 Simmons
8 Potter

Are you serious...what on earth makes you think the club would take a chance like that?? I can't think for one minute why anybody would think delving into the lower leagues for such a coach would be something a SL club would do? I think there's no record of a club being so brave other than Cas taking a punt on Powell or Saints doing similar with what's his name...Millward!

As a Leigh fan I recall Rowley not being a universally acclaimed appointment but not so many grumbles now.

It'll never happen...though I'd love to see such thinking out of the box! I'm surprised your post hasn't had any other comments but I guess it shows how narrow peoples thinking is these days.

One thing is certain Saints won't be getting an overseas coach including Daniel Anderson.

I think it's a pretty open secret that it's Keiron's job.

Is it??????

I'd prefer a winning coach. I'm not sure Cunningham's going to be one at this stage in his coaching career. Has he actually done any coaching bar being an assistant? U21s etc?

Seems to be. Not sure I agree with it but ho hum.

Is Mike Rush back in the frame?

No.

My advice is think of the most obvious and likely outcome and you wont be far wrong.

If its those two there won't being any half way street, it will either be a long term success or a complete failure. As there are no obvious available candidates from overseas its probably worth a short term risk.

If true, not happy with that decision at all. Hope to be proven wrong, but I think it is a mistake.

I do too, he'll naturally get the support of all but he's very inexperienced.

That is an absolute certainty , EM deffo wants an English coach .

Aye but you could have KC as head coach with DA as director of rugby

As stated elsewhere, I couldn't care less if the coach was Australian, Kiwi, German, Japanese, Bolivian, Canadian or whatever (except French, obviously) . Being the best is what's important.
