Class

Like i said i didnt want it to get into a slagging match,why couldnt you just end it with your first quote,that was good enough.

Ive asked a straight forward question its not that hard to answer is it?

You're the dick who's posting on here trying to sway public opinion for your big matey

So why not leave it at your question instead of trying to respond to every post?

just think the club would want it sorted one way or another,cant see them leaving it while the end of season to decide,i may be wrong of course.

results will sway public opinion not me.

Let him go then. Plenty of coaches out there and he has done nothing yet to warrant a new contract.

Yeah but he might let you go on top next time for trying

One of the main considerations is who a realistic alternative would be. Coaching seems to be one area where we scrimp, so would we really be in the market for a top class Aussie coach? Probably not. Would Moore be better? No idea. McNamara? Absolutely not.

Agar will not be coach next year, he'll move upstairs and Moore will take over.
He (Moore) stated he came over to be a head coach, i doubt he'll wait at his age. This has been obvious since Moore was announced.

guess we had better lock the thread now youve answered the question

It would seem logical.

Anything less than top 6/8 with this team with at least one good performance in the play-off's should yield the sack for Agar but as stated we often go for the cheap option when it comes to appointing head coaches so I wouldn't get my hopes up of a 'top class aussie' being signed. More a run of the mill assistant coach from the NRL or something.

in all honesty i don't know how you could not renew a coaches contract if he has just won a trophy or got us to a final. to get there you need to do something right, we all know how injuries can affect the team, so with a fully fit squad we should be able to see what rich is actually like as a coach. 10 rounds in is way too early and as previous posters have said we really don't know who's calling the shots at the min, in could be moore, not to mention how many times we here about long and fitz's input into tactics.

Im not a fan of Agar and im still to be convinced that he is the right man for the job but to expect him to win a trophy with the squad he has is unfair in my opinion I still think we are well behind some of the other squads, if we finish around the top six mark it will be an ok season and would consider giving Agar a short extension.

Amen

=#FF4080Wolfie/Jake - This is getting boring now, cut it out!

Need to wait until at least mid season before looking at how well he is doing, would have other irons in fire too just in case. Agar needs at least a top 6 finish or I would get rid.

jeez wolfie, can you not give it a rest for at least 5 games?

It's a valid question, at which point do we thing about renewing or not. If it's a no then plans have to be made to look for someone else. Wolfie was not saying we should renew his deal but merely asking the question.

I concur.

We need continued high performance - getting to finals or semi-finals at least. Offer him an extension and when/if it becomes clear that he has the credentials to be a "great" then give him a longer-term offer.

If that is how you see it then fine.

Interesting how wolfie hasn't started a similar thread about OOC players.

For me after the last 2 seasons im wanting a top 6 finish, a challenge cup final appearance (if not win to stop that damn rovers song!"!) and 2 derby wins if he achieves this and he remains CHEAP and their is no unrest in camp then I would give him a new contract! otherwise dump him and lets see if uncle Dennis can persuade dezzy over! Too early yet to say how this seasons gunna pan out

i wouldnt think about renewing coaching contracts until august. I dont think anyone will be trying to poach Rich (maybe rovers for their FC collection))!!

The original post is a bit confusing.

Wolfie, you've said offering a new contract would need to be sooner rather than later, and then you've gone on to say would fans be happy if he was given a new contract if we won something/got to a final/play-offs, etc. They can't both happen. If the contract was given sooner rather than later, we wouldn't know if we'd won something/got to a final/play-offs etc. This is probably why the question isn't getting answered in the way you intended, because it can't.

I think he's in a similar position that Noble was put in. He's not met targets over his contract and now it's his final year there are no room for excuses. This is his squad that he put together and if he fails to meet the targets then he won't be offered a new deal. For him to be offered a new deal early, I reckon we'll need to be flying high in the league (somewhere in the top 4) with signs of staying there (i.e. no slump in form) around June time. If we aren't, then he'll have to sweat on a contract based on end of season results. I don't think we need to worry about another club poaching him (he's has no decent results at SL), so we can wait.

I think the club should thank him for his efforts and say goodbye whatever the team achieves this year.
