Would be an exciting and inspired signing IMO. Might fall flat on its @rse but would certainly cause a stir and some interest. As already said, though, far too expensive for league. Even if he came back, couldn't see it for anyone but Wigan.

he is a true rugby league great and was a natural leader and has coaching experience at top level in union. We could do much worse. His experience of both codes would make for an excellent coach imo

Your right about the ego, and also whoever said we cant afford him. Dont see where people get that he is too inexpierenced from RL is in his blood and wether it is union or not, he is currently coaching at the top level

saying he would make a good coach in s.l. is guesswork, not saying he would'nt but, it would be a gamble bringing in anyone who has'nt succesfully coached at the top of our game (super league or nrl), we are not in a position to gamble, we need a proven coach.

As a 'proven' coach only Nobles available.

If you want to go to oz then your looking at assistants.

He is inexperienced as a RL coach, because he has not coached RL. Just because he played the game does not make him an experienced RL coach. I think he may well make a fine RL coach but do we really want to give a 3rd inexperienced coach a go at ruining our club??

Why not instead try something really crazy and off the wall and bring in somebody who has vast experience in coaching RL at the highest levels.

@Sheldon mot people are available at a price, we have deemed fit to spend money on players this season only to play them out of position, why can't we go out and spend money on a coach with experience to turn this whole sorry mess around. At the end of the day a successful coach would recoup the money spent on them very quickly.

thats why i would make noble an offer until the end of this year, see how he goes, if he does well give him a deal if not we can see who would be available for next year.

To play league all your life and then carve out a successful career as a coach in union is almost more of an achievement than doing it in your native sport. He's obviously a great thinker and innovator and I think he'd be a a vast improvement on daft lad. That said it would still be a risk that we shouldn't be taking, and given he's coach of wasps and got a contract with Wales there's no way we could afford him.

Yer, cos we've got loads more money to throw around than Huddersfield.

Top insights as usual Jimmy.

Who do you want to throw money at?

Have a look at some of the top coaches reported earnings in the NRL.

What's that got to do with someone suggesting that we should be poaching Brown from Huddersfield due to our superior financial clout? It's laughable that we could take him off them due to being willing/ able to pay more.

It was to hullbg.

I didn't quote him properly.

Looking like he's leaving WRU, they suspended him before the France game and he wasn't involved in their preparation, which is probably why the OP asked the question.

FWIW, I think he would be a great RL coach. He has enough on field experience in the game, and is clearly a talented and innovative coach from his time in Union.

Is Peter Sharp available??

Never specified an NRL coach however I think Noble would be the prime candidate at the moment. Not his biggest fan but think he could get us back on the right track which is what we need at the moment.

Temporary job until the end of the season or until #cough# pizzez him off?

Wouldn't have to throw money at Noble, he'd be relatively cheap I'd have thought.

Indeed

After Easter Brian Noble To Leeds Rhinos And Brian McDermott To Hull FC, If Results Aint Going Leeds And FC Still

why on earth all this crap about noble.....whats he done thats so good that fc would want him? may aswell see the season out with agar then go for an oz coach

not the biggest fan of noble but god hes better then agar and hes the sort of guy and coach that would certainly improve us and what he did at bradford, wigan and espciaslly the crusaders proves that hes a decent coach and better then agar but i would like us to go for a good aussie coach

A couple of super league titles, challenge cup, world club champions.

how long ago.....times have changed and so has the rugby

Took a poor crusaders side to the top 8.
