Only other notable candidate I can think of is Danny Orr.

Happy they've gone with Chad. He's a good leader and consummate professional.

The club deserve a pat on the back as well. This is the top story on the BBC and SportingLife websites and has been for much of the day. They could have said nothing, but they made a story out of it and got some publicity going.

I'm sure if it had been a busier day it might not be top story, but that's the chance you take.

Careful you will upset certain posters with thoughts like that

Its good the media coverage Chad's appointment has received, you do not find many opposition supporters who say anything bad about Chad, he has great respect, I think it is a good choice, I'm pleased for Chad!

Chad's the man.

Always played well vs us, Warrington, and I still think is one of the best hookers in Super league. Not as good as Monaghan mind!!!
