"League Express" claim today that Terry Matterson turned us down and that leaves Francis Cummins and James Lowes, personally I would not touch Lowes and Francis is still too raw?

How does that leave Francis Cummins and James Lowes. Have we learnt nothing from the Brian McDermott fiasco that has been the last one and a half seasons. |

Would be pleased with either Lowes of Cummins. Both have served excellent apprenticeships, and realistically, we are not a top SL side.

I don't think not being a top Super League side right now should be a barrier to getting a great head coach. Maybe I'm being too idealistic and not realistic enough, but I think the club needs to start making brave and ambitious decisions.

Clearly we would have aspirations of being a big city club in the Championship if we plump for Jimmy Lowes. Northerner with no outward signs of being a top coach, ring any bells. Cummins at least looks intelligent, or maybe permanently clinging onto a clipboard has made him seem half-way intelligent.
The future is not set, there is no fate but what we make for ourselves. We need a coach with a football brain! |

I was hoping for something a bit more inspring than either Lowes or Cummins. Lowes, in particular, being one of my least favorite players.

Then Lowes would be perfect.
It is unfortunate that McDermott has obviously put people off the idea of a player moving from playing into coaching. However this is not an issue for me, and it happens all the time.
I'm not sure why people think that being an assistant at an NRL side before moving to being a head coach in Super League is more acceptable than being an assistant at a Super League side and doing the same thing. Cummins and Lowes have extensive experience in the English game - yet people would prefer to recruit an Australian with no head coach experience either or knowledge of Super League? Curious. |

Who are better coaches? Maguire, Morgan and Brown....or Mcnamara, Mcdermott and Lowes? Id take the 3 Aussies any day over the 3 Brits. Sad, but true. There isnt enough strength in depth in our country to create top coaches who have had to really achieve and push to reach the top. |

Irrelevant. You could name plenty of Aussie flops too. |

I think Bradford spawned perhaps the biggest batch of Rugby League staff that have come from one Super League club and most of them were forwards who benefitted from size and strength rather than subtleness or skill.
Brian McDermott, James Lowes, Paul Anderson, Mike Forshaw, Steve McNamara, Robbie Paul, Paul Deacon, Iestyn Harris, Stanley Gene, Glenn Morrison, Matt Calland, Warren Jowitt, Paul Medley, Abi Ekoku, Scott Naylor
Of this list, it is difficult to suggest that any of the forwards have been a successful head coach in their own right and arguably the biggest prospects are Harris and Robbie Paul with the best potential 'forward' manager being perhaps Paul Anderson. I have nothing against Bradford but nothing for them either.
It would be better to have an experienced manager and if that is Brian Noble I would be pleased - I just don't want someone chancing their arm with our club as their personal University. This is especially the case if they have been here and looked hapless and been beaten 60-8.

| Listy's right about Aussie flops (John Monie, anyone?).
I have nothing against Bradford apart from the fact that they wanted us kicked out of the league.
Thinking about it, I'd be happy with Bradford being kicked out and replaced by Halifax  |

If I had to take a British coach Id take Sharp. I wouldnt go near Lowes or Harris or any of the inexperienced assistants. Never been sure about Kear, but probably second best.

The club should be in Daniel Anderson's ear. He'd be perfect.

Sharp did well at the Giants, a great defensive coach, after 5 years it was time to move on. Quins could do a lot worse.

According to the local paper Isteyn Harris is about to be confirmed as the Crusaders' new coach, apparently leaving Mr. Noble without a job - perhaps he'd like to try us (on second thoughts.....).
