McDermott will go before Jukes ,cockwomble.

I dunno but I once saw Ray French outside a chippy there.

Agree with this. He might not end up being the first to go but I'd be very surprised if he's still in charge in 12 months time.

For those saying Cunningham, again like I said with McDermott I'm not so sure he'd be sacked during the season (especially early enough to be the first) if Saints did struggle, more likely just to split with him at the end of the season.

I've seen quite a few lasses built like Dawn French kicking about there too.

....Glenn Morrison.

The 'losing to Bradford' curse strikes again.
I'm sad to see this happen to Glenn, he was a fantastic player and has been great for Dewsbury for the last 5 years or so. I don't know too much about their current situation but I'm not sure he was the problem and replacing him might not be the answer. Their squad - or current available 19 at least - just isn't very good.

Word going round that this was his last year in England so that might've affected the players in some way.

I wouldn't mind if he came back to Wakefield, but we've got enough forwards on the coaching staff.

Dennis Betts would be my bet

Rick Stone at the Giants has moved up the ladder to be the first Super League coach to be sacked this season.

Surely you've heard of the season long excuse that'll keep him here no matter what rubbish the fans pay to watch every week.
The famous building process will keep him here until it's too late.
Anderson wasn't this bad.. and that was with a more unsettled pre season, more injuries and god awful fitness levels.

In pre season Stone said defence was key. The defence is measurably worse and the club are scoring far fewer points. There are only a couple of players missing plus a crocked player that Stone signed knowing he was injured. By far the worst coach the giants have had in 10+ years.

Huddersfield certainly regressed since stone was appointed, they look foolish for sacking Anderson now. Can't see him lasting the season.

Stone sounds like a basic level coaching manual when he speaks. I hope he doesn't last til Giants next game!

Surely Fraysinous has got to be under some pressure, big overhaul of the playing and backroom staff this winter but they still seem to be going backwards

Fraysinous should have gone last year. They look such a poorly coached team. Got some good players.

Just thinking the same. If they lose this which looks likely then it's only 4 wins from their previous 20 stretching back to 2016.

Fraysinous - nailed on. Bottom 4 beckons if they don't change him soon.

Yep. I've said a few times on here that he must be the worst coach in SL. For Catalans to be where they are/have been over the last few seasons with the players he's had to work with is nothing short of shocking.

Catalans' fitness looked shocking yesterday. The part-timers of fev, London and batley that we faced in the middle 8s were never blowing as hard as cats after 60mins - or at least they had the pride not to show it.

If Trent Robinson had this current squad then they would be top 4 without a doubt

IMO it's a foot race between Stone and Fraysinous to see who gets the bullet first
If both coaches last the season then both could be in the middle 8's especially the Giants,they could also end up in a shoot out with Hull KR for the million pound game

Agree 100%. He must be absolutely gutted looking at what Fraysinous has done there. Robinson left the club in a great position and Fraysinous has single handedly destroyed all of his hard work.

neil jukes, to replaced by paul cooke/keiron purtill coaching team.

Or if we get automatic promotion, Catalans vs Toulouse in the MPG is looking quite possible.

Back on topic, surely Smith, Betts and Stone are the most likely candidates.

I wouldn't want to go into the middle 8s with the potential of travelling to France twice.

l would love to go into the middle eights with the potential of going to France twice
