Betting is now back up, Steve Price who was not on the list as suddenly appeared as new favourite at 7/4. Dean Pay as gone out to 6/1. So this is were it stands just now.

Steve Price 7/4
Maguire 2/1
Brennan 3/1
Toovey 9/2
Pay 6/1
Hasler 8/1

For those not interested in betting I'm doing this only to get an idea as to who it may be.Then again since last week the betting as been all over the place, its that bad that Alex Murphy may be next favourite.

Demetriou is favourite for GC but they also have ownership issues. No announcement from them on a coach until first week in October according to reports.

Pay will go to Dogs
Hope we get Maguire or Brennan.

I'd be happy with Brennan, Pay or Maguire, Toovey or Hasler I'd need convincing.

Not heard that much about Price, whats he been up to since he got the boot @ St George?

Assistant to Cronulla

Looking at the comments it seems that Karl could well be coming back with the scraps from the rich man's table. If it is true that the favourites are going off in other directions we might finish up with whatever is left. It sounds more like the coaches are interviewing Karl before deciding on options closer to home.

What do you mean? Only Dean Pay, a man with no head Coach experience, and a former Canterbury player is likely to go elsewhere.

If Demetriou gets the GC gig, there are no other opportunities.

If KF comes back with either Maguire, Steve Price or Garth Brennan we should be well chuffed.

Karl is already back,no idea who he as spoken to while he was away don't see Hasler was one of those,think he was back before that one blew up. I did see a piece that he had spoken to Price but he as only appeared in the betting today and gone straight to favourite.

Well for what it's worth if he gets offered the job at Bulldogs Pay will go there, he as ties to that club so think it's a no brainier. As for Titans there are a few on our list linked with that job,like earlier poster said I think we will be left with the left overs.

Tweeted Moley, who's reply was doubts there'll be news until the Dogs and Titans coaches are announced

Yes saw that tweet, another thing about the betting I've noticed is Toovey's price is pretty consistent, Christ I hope he is not our fallback if none of the NRL guys come over.

It is possible that a deal has been done and that we dont want to announce it until the season is over and and Tony smith has had his send off. I would suspect that Titans and NSW positions must be close to done deals by now as it is a good couple of weeks that they ha e been out in the open but both Henry and Daley have been at risk for a while before they were officially announced. The same can be said for Hasler as well really. so i am suprised these announcements have not been made yet.
The bulldogs is a prize job. Aaron woods and Keiran Foran on the way for next year.
The titans job is a tough one with big players like Hayne to manage.
But i think it would have always been the case that we would not have been able to compete against those three vacant positions and we would pick up one of the unsuccessful candidates.

Considering Fitzpatrick has the charisma of a wet flannel I can't believe he is being entrusted with securing a coach. Next season could be another write-off anyway unless we have already secured players.

Well as Price as now become favourite with Betfred, I'm wondering if this would be a hinderence to the Maloney speculation with both being at same club.

Price and Toovey would be the most underwhelming appointments out of all that's been mentioned IMO.

So we have gone from any number of great coaches available (mid season) to the "scraps from a rich mans table". Not such a straightforward job as some would believe finding a new coach I mean.

Perhaps we would have someone by now if we started looking months ago instead of jumping on the next plan out of country just a couple weeks ago.

The fact Toovey is still low in the betting that I have held off buying my season ticket.

Looks to be Madge.

Pay set to go Canterbury.

Pay looks obvious for the Dogs, but what makes you think Maguire when everything we have been fed is he doesn't want to move out of Sydney.

He was interviewed for the job.

Was he actually interviewed though? Or was that just press speculation over there?

Yeh I'd take Madge Simpson over Toovey,wonder if Betfred have odds on that.

What's the issue with Toovey?

His win % ratio at Manly was good. 57%.

Manly to Bradford hmm says enough for me.
