Looks like Noble and Morgan as coach and assistant coach next season then.

Brian Noble would do wonders for cas.

I totally agree he would be a good choice (and i personally think the deal has been done) the thing now is the timing, expect a announcement in the first two weeks of July.

Would be vehemently against hiring Justin Morgan and would be disappointed by appointing Noble. Sure Noble is a big name, but I've never appreciated his teams' style. That said, his record speaks for itself, although I'm sure some were saying that when we hired Ellery Hanley.

Justin Morgan has done wonders at Hull KR with a load of money and bending the overseas quota rules. HKR have produced very few homegrown youngsters to SL level, and given the resources Cas have and the impressive youth development we've done, Morgan would be a very poor fit.

Personally I prefer substance to style and I've not seen much of either down the lane for a long while. IMO we need a coach who can produce a side with mental as well as physical toughness and which buys into the theory that defence can be a form of attack (eg Hudds/Wire/Wigan). For me Noble fits that bill far better than any of the others mentioned so far.

I agree about Morgan. If he was appointed I think many fans would see it as a backward step. Same with Kear. With Noble, I'm not keen on his style of rugby and I'd be worried about whether or not he'd continue offering opportunities to the young local talent; however he's got a proven track record and his appointment would give the fans some confidence in what the club's ambitions are.
