What's his coaching experience?

It's a silly topic as Kear isn't going (with a stupidly misleading title as well), and if he was, on past form, we'd promote from within, or get someone cheap from the Championship.

mutley stick to talking crap i dont usually call people anything but your an idiot people vote with there feet.

Being in the changing rooms,

he's aquiring coaching badges [citation needed and has expressed a wish to coach on a few occasions. I suppose coaches are getting younger all the time and knowledge of what is going on in the park now and what went on 25 years ago is also a benefit?



I'd say for a [ifact[/i he'd throw his hat in. So might Willie Poching!

frankly any coach with some background. john kear is the only recognised top level coach we have had in ages. promoting players into the head coach roll does not work but would probably be the sort of rubbish idea the wakey board would go for.

better keep kear!

what a load of rubbish some people come out with. jk is the best thing to happen to wakey in years and most people with half a brain would know that. its a good job that no one takes notice of the sack the coach brigade. the rl guru's who couldn't coach an amateur side that take every chance to snipe at a coach that is doing his pre season training in mid season. the same ones that were on here last week saying how was we beat by a lowly harlequins side by one score which this week beat the best team in sl. got beat again this week by one score. nothing wrong with the effort but the backs quite obviously aren't firing and nor would you expect them to be after what has taken place but i am sure a little bit more time and the players stick together and we will get back on the horse . then the sack the coach crew can stop wetting themselves and start bagging the players again.

it wasn't that long ago since you were struggling to raise money,so i can't see the board paying off kear,unless his contract runs out at the end of the season??it's not as if he's been given that much money for his squad is it?injuries kicking in wont help either,plus brough leaving wont have helped him neither!!

Yes agree JK is one of only coaches we have had for a long time. Its just a case of back to the drawing board and a few quality players in. Having watched Melbourne this morning we could start with Cameron Smith & Billy Slater ( after they have helped the Maroons beat NSW of course) also they could bring Cooper Cronk with them. That would ease their salary cap problems.

maybe so but i am sure that there are some on here that would still be screaming sack the coach for signing them and ted for paying them.

Why on earth would we be sacking JK?

Get real - we are suffering a loss of form and confidence - and our answer is to sack the coach, the board and anyone who mutters anything positive about the club. How does any of this help restore confidence to anyone who reads this board???

The answers to most of our problems are closer than we think - we just need to work it out!

It's all TRB's fault - there I've said it.




What's that phrase, ah yes, 'Burn him'. Wonder if that would attract the crowds? But who would we burn the week after?

If he thought it would help the club he'd be fine with that.

We could run a poll to decide

Whoever thought the 'burning' thing was funny in the first place?

Most people on this forum to start with.

Kear has made some strange decisions of late but we should give the guy backing I still think he is a GOD. We owe him time. Its MR Richardson who needs to help us the most here .Kear has done everything he can on a shoe string.

ngb4c..he has had a few quid to sign players, newton, cooke, morrison, king, johnson..o know we have lost players to free up wages but i agree with you for once that we desperately need a scrum half..PLEASE !

I think the original aim of the post was for us to react as if the unthinkable had happened?

Well I'd be gutted! Would remind me of when we got rid of Ray Batten (Twice!).

whist I was vehemently against his coming to wakefield, JK is not the issue that the club needs to address

Getting rid of Kear is not an option as far as I see it.

karl harrison in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this thread should be closed and deleted.
It scares me every time I log in.

Ahem!

Andrew's still coaching at international level and is also working with the RFL as a Development Officer as such he's still up to date with current technique and coaching strategy.

How about an Andy Kelly/Neil Kelly coaching team!



Not sure what Mitch Brennan is doing!

Seriously, JK is going nowhere and talk of him being sacked is silly.
I'm sure he's man enough to accept that some blame rests at his feet and will be studying hard to work out whats adversely affecting the teams performance.

Not many coaches, if any, could have held the teams form together in the face of the unforseen losses we've suffered in vital areas of the playing staff.

We'll get through it and we'll have our day in the sun!

No can do matey, i get told off for it.

Just for the record, we already have the coach I would most like to have the club. And I include Wayne Bennett and everybody else in that. I may have a moan at times like most others, but in my opinion, no other coach is suited to Wakefield as much as John Kear.
