agree. unless its Nobby we should be looking at Australia. if we want to become a top side we need the guidance of somebody quality, and there are no "quality" GB coaches.

if we want to compete with Aus and NZ then we need the very best coaches teaching our younger players.

tbh English coaches are nowhere near as important as successful clubs.

Someone at the club was telling me last night it is Betts. Not a bad choice IMO.

From that list my 4 in order would be;

Potter
Potter
Kearney
McDermott

[iBetts is keen to continue in coaching but, speaking to the Evening Post, he said he plans to take a break before plotting where his future lies.

He said: “I made the decision a month a go. It came to the point where it had become a bit stagnant – I’d been there for five years doing the same role and I wanted a change.

“I’m looking for a different direction. I’m going to decide on what’s the next step for me.
I won’t be rushing into anything. I want to make sure I make the right decision, whether that’s going for a position in league or another role in union."[/i

Thing is if it is an Oz coach it's unlikely to be a current first team coach so you are taking a bigger risk as, not only haven't they been a first team coach, but they just might not settle in this country. Wigan have been lucky (so far) with McGuire.

The ones who tend not to settle are the unsuccessful ones or those who subsequently get better jobs in Aus.
