The results will tell.Certainley more pressure on McDermott than Jukes.

The Red Devils Ian Watson would be the one that i would put money on getting the sack first

He who casts the first Stone.. Not proven yet.

Laurent Frayssinous. I see no reason why Catalans won't be as mentally lazy as ever. He'd be my tip.
McDermott will be ok, as will Leeds this time.
Cunningham - McManus won't sack a legend.
Clubs with less elevated expectations will stick with who they've got.
Wane, Radford and Smith have sufficient credit in the bank to sit this one out.

Catalans coach must be one of the favourites if they don't start well the rest seem quite safe but who knows

If Laurence Frayssinous is sacked as coach of Catalans, then I would favour the return of Michael Pottter or the hiring of John Kear.

John Kear seems quite content back at Wakefield as Director of Rugby

None from Super Dooper League (until the end of the season)

Possibly Championship or League 1

Wane looked a bit stressed about the upcoming season .... https://youtu.be/Z42TM2WvESg

The hatred is strong in this one

Owch

"17th Feb" could be interesting

John Kear would be better paid and enjoying a better lifestyle if he was head coach at the Catalans Dragons. Good money, good food, good wine, good women, good weather. What else could you ask for?

He would also get a chance to use his French language skills, which are of little use in Wakefield (Does Wakefield even have a French restaurant?)

They have an Indian takeaway

they used to have the Baltic grill on the main road

Does Chorley have any restaurants' at all.

Ewww who wants to eat slugs n toads

lf Wakey move to Dewsbury, plenty of foreign resturants there. not so sure about French though

Don't worry about Kear, he's been polishing up his other language skills in the local Italian, Japanese, Greek, French, Indian, Cuban, Spanish & Brazilian restaurants around the City and yes there's even a French one too.

Only a team that had zero aspirations would consider John Kear. He would be a good fit for Catalans

Cunningham for me, lots of expectation and little chance he will deliver

All of which is trumped by being taken out of Yorkshire GODS COUNTRY!
He'd also find it impossible to avoid the French

Cunningham would've been my first choice but now he's got the excuse that Matty Smith is injured, he'll probably be safe for a while longer...

I find it hard to believe that Frayssinous is still head coach at Catalans to be honest. The talent he's had at his disposal over the last few years, but not been able to manage them is ridiculous. On paper, Catalans have looked contenders for a long time, but all the good work that Trent Robinson did Frayssinous has undone. He would be my tip for first to go if Catalans don't start performing.

After today - Glenn Morrison. Duel registration back-fired spectacularly.

Don't know whether the Dewsbury result was because they had 4 players the rest of the side had never played with or what, but they only had 16 fit players anyway, that's why they called for reinforcements.
