Looks set to be announced as the new Wests Tigers coach, with Royce Simmons as his assistant.

I'm glad he's got a head coaching job if it's true. Well deserved.

Very chuffed for him well done MP

Yeahh brilliant news. Good luck Mick !!!

I have started a placement in the office at Odsal, working alongside Megan and the crew and she's grand. Good hard worker and we'll miss her when she eventually goes.

One other thing, both FC and Jarrod Sammut were in this morning talking. Could'nt quite hear what about tho but could be interesting

So pleased for Mick - if anyone deserves to land on their feet it's him.

A great move for him and Wests Tigers who are struggling. If anyone can pull things together it's him. Good luck Mick!

Well he wanted a head coach role in the NRL and he more than deserves one.

Shame he didn't stay at Bradford because I feel he was really building something here.

Hope its true for his sake as he seems a very decent bloke, but I thought this guy was favourite? www.zerotackle.com/nrl/matt-pari ... -job-7895/ The bloke who didn't even stop to take his coat off a Salford (mind you they do seem to be in a bit of bother themselves, so maybe he got wind of it, which would put him at the other end of the loyalty spectrum to Potter!)

The mole tweeted earlier today re Potter and Simmons he is 99% right so I would take it as read.

Good news!

Now I just hope he doesn't look at any Bulls players as potential Wests players!

Karl Pryce, Shaun Ainscough and Phil Joseph are free!

Interesting to see he beat Nathan Brown amongst others for the job. Bet Saints are delighted he is already looking for another job

I saw reports that Nathan Brown was approached by WTs but he knocked them back!
