Or perhaps Muttleyyyyyyy!!!! do somethingggggggg!!!!

Steady on pal.
Two of the funiest bones ever.

I'll give you Hale and Pace but only in Benidorm.

What about Hetherington?

Is at Leeds.

Although he is gradually handing things over to Sinfield.
Given that Hetherington turned Leeds into the monster that dominated (and still dominates in lots of commercial ways) Super League I imagine his retirement would be viewed with relief at other clubs.

He's a tit.

I don’t know him personally like you do so can’t comment.

You’re obviously bitter that we’ve got one over you and secured the mighty Agar.

You'll not reel in anyone on here. Try FB.

You're right. I'm devistated.

He's returning to England for family reasons, according to a statement from St George.

His results as a head coach aren't great, but he was at Wire, St George, and now Leeds in an assistant / member of the performance team capacity, not a head coach.

St George and Leeds would have no doubt done their due dilligance before hiring him - RL is a pretty small and well-connected sport - if he was as bad as social media and this forum makes out, he would have struggled to find work, yet oportunities keep presenting themselves to him.

Maybe as a member of a back-room setup, as a player development officer, head of performance or whatever, rather than the head coach, he's pretty good?

I still reflect of Richie Mathers' Tweets after he got the NRL gig -

"Not my place to. All im saying is Rich Agar is a brilliant coach, worked unbelievably hard, players loved him and ANY criticism is WAY off."
...
"Your completely entitled to your opinion but your so far off the mark. Hell of a lot of reasons but Agar 1000% wasn't one of them."

We played our greatest rugby in the last 40 years, under the tutelage of Tony Smith and Wiilie Poaching.
Smith then had the [i brainwave[/i to break up the partnership, and bring his squash partner, and our levels of entertaining rugby fell off sharply, very quickly, until they [ifell off a cliff[/i in 2017.

Leeds are welcome to him
There'll be season ticket holders jumping off the roofs of the refurbished Headingley

Probably not that but he might be bitter that Gary Hetherington has delivered a decade and a half of sustained success based on developing home grown players, which is what all Warrington fans want to see.

If I heard that any of that "Headingley set" was coming to Warrington: Hetherington, McDermott, Sinfield, Peacock, JJB, I'd be very pleased, as I was when Leuluai joined.

On top of this, furner might not even be going now.

He heard Agar was coming.

I trust Mathers' take on Agar and heard the same from another source, so good luck to the guy. That's not saying I'd want him back as a head coach BTW

Some coincidental exits yesterday with Peacock Agar and Furner.
Very easy to link these 3 together.

Yes 2016 we reached 2 finals and I never accepted this as relatively successful for a team with a coach in his 7th year. It is only successful for Price because of the low base he worked from and only 11 months in which to do it.

In 2015 we were dross too ending the league in 6th and beaten by Hull KR in the semi. So in Agar's tenure.

2015 - Dross
2016 - Lost both finals.
2017 - Dross

Then we can reflect on comments from Wakefield and Hull supporters which are not a ringing endorsement. Then these comments from our very own K. Brown.



I would not be in a hurry to have him back but do not wish him ill.

The Kevin Brown quote doesn't mention Agar.

It just confirms what I think we all agree on - there was a LOT wrong behind the scenes in the final few years of Smith's tenure.

Player recruitment and succession planning (Smith's punts and projects eg Bailey, our halfback situation was dire, players not wanting to sign for us after meeting TS), Smith had clearly lost his mojo, the players didn't like working with Mick Turner (who also arrived for the 2015 season) etc.

I'm not trying to be an Agar champion - I just think he's unfairly become a lightning rod for all that was wrong.

Can't give Brown an argument. He said pretty much bar his own contribution on how it was.

By and large Brown this season has be fair to good with the exception of leaving arguably his 2 worst performances for both finals.

Yes we agree on that. Just as I don't think it is fair he is blamed for everything, it is not fair for him to avoid any responsibility either. He is culpable along with TS.

With hindsight my view is '17 was a reflection on leadership and TS showed as much leadership in that season as the captain of the Costa Concordia. For all we know Agar was the equivalent of the Italian coastguard shouting "Captain get back on your ship!"

I think there 's a gulf of harshness Captain.

Well there was a flood of criticism suggesting the tide had turned against TS. When you are in rocky waters you need a firm hand on the tiller.
