Yes mate. I will say this, I dont think it will impress many but he has made it clear he wants the job. Hes a very good coach but ultimately unless we have a total disaster v London and Salford I think it will be Agar.


Appreciate you don't want to name the coach that's fair enough.

Where I struggle with this is it sounds totally reactive. Leeds should not be waiting for the odd call and chat with an interested coach.

This is not some complicated business choice. There are a limited number of options and between KS and GH they could probably rule out 70% of the possible choices in an hour.

After Furner was sacked KS restated that the "model" of the original agar role, KS role and head coach was right for Leeds. That model was in place for a handful of games and we now still have the agar role empty, a temporary head coach and part time, temporary assistant coach in place.

I think Agar has done a decent job improving the defence and generally attack as well.

Of course, I know nothing and they may have some new coach up their sleeve for 2020 but the goal should be simple get the best man possible.

If we are just Giving it to agar because he is a good guy and we are possibly scared of making another mistake is folly.

Whatever we decide to do, it needs to be the right calibre of appointment. There’s little point changing Agar for just another coach with different strengths and weaknesses.

It sounds to me like there will be less change next year than I personally would like to see, and in effect we’ll be giving it up as another development year.

A few more contracts end next year which will prompt new signings but maybe they do want to give the youth a shot too. With another off season there are a number of 19s who could make an impact.

Agar is obviously in the mix ,but they must be considering other options. There must be stuff going on behind the scenes

Too much is made of coaches' win ratios etc, but Brown has been at an NRL club nearly four years now and not torn up any trees from what I can see.

Probably an upgrade on what we have though, if he'd return to the UK, and I guess he'll be in the mix somewhere behind the scenes.
