Quote ="barham red"Just to put the whole Agar is rubbish thing into perspective, there are about 4 coaches in SL who are doing any good.
Mcguire - doing well but still took a beating from Quins and the Bulls
Brown - got a very good squad and performs well but got turned over by Salford and looked very average against Wigan, looks a bit of unrest there since the Brough signing, have they pushed on from last year?
Smith - Are wire the real deal, still look fragile once they lose Briers for any time, still think the fans are happy.
Noble - Low expectations an is doing ok with a new bunch of players
As for the rest
Potter - Saints fans have been calling for his head for a big part of the season, he's going at the end of this one and most saints fans will pay his air fare.
Mcnamara - Looks on a par with Agar, signed some great players and they look pretty average most weeks, have the odd spark but little more, not many Bulls fans will be sad to see him go.
Mclellan - Having a stinker of a year, even now they are getting back to full strength they don't look the side they were, a lot of fans now saying he should go.
Kear - the wolves have been baying at his door this year, lost Brough and until weekend they have looked awful
Morgan - Wheels have come off, he is probably more under scrutiny now then he has been in his tenure and despite a lot of leeway there are suddenly real calls for his head.
Matterson - can't win at home, some awful dispays lots of fans calling for his head
Mcdermott - Had an awful run (on the back of injuries) again a section of the fan base wanted rid.
McCrae - Lots of bad feeling towards him from the fan base, never really done anything with them
Walters - Underperforming with a good squad, talk of him being offed at the end of the year.
Is Agar performing any worse than a lot of the above? I have mocked Agar myself (we have to it comes with our season pass) and I agree the 2 year extension did seem a little premature but still reckon you'll get top 6 if you can keep fitzgibbon on the park and get Long playing to even half his potential, surely that'll be a good season?'"
potter - saints look back to their best to me despite significant injury problems and probably nowhere near the salary cap. When was the last time we scored 11 tries in a game?
mcnamara - operating on the 5th lowest salary bill in SL yet still above us
mclennan - 2 SL titles and his underperforming side still put nearly 100 points on agar's in less than a week
kear - again operating on a reduced cap and has lost his 3 best players (brough, newton, tronc)
morgan - never rated him anyway
matterson - again, a side operating with reduced cap and lots of injuries. On a par with agar I'd have said
mcdermott - another one with less to spend yet still seems to manage to play some entertaining rugby
mcrae - past it but still seems to be able to get the odd good performance
walters - took his side to 4th place last year and proved he can motivate
