We'r going to waste more years under agar, i like him as a person and he's done the minimnum required to get us safe, but cant believe we'r going to appoint him full time...the club is fast becoming a joke. The coach in the other dugout last night is night and day better and would most likely jump at the chance...but we'r going with the upper managements mate, unbelievable!

Nobody is saying Agar is the Messiah. In his career he has been an average coach really.

There are just so many variables in creating and maintaining a winning side - including some Lady Luck. Coaches commonly get too much praise for winning and too much stick for losing.

Look, Agar took over a demoralised camp where the head coach had just been sacked and the side is floundering. He has steadied the ship, got some positivity back, been involved in one or two helpful signings and ultimately guided us to safety.

I don’t know what some of you expect honestly.

Tonight proved how important a decent Coaching set up is. They have 1 top class player but their Coach has them well organised every player WANTS to put a shift in & they deserved their win.
We are at the very least a HB Prop BR & starting winger short , thats before you look at the Coaching set up.

Nail on the head.

Watched the tries again this morning. Some of our defence for them was bottom of the league stuff. We still look poorly coached

I excpect Leeds Rhinos to be looking for the best coach available, its not hard to understand. If you think Agars that man, then i dont know what criteria your looking at. He's getting the jobb because he's GH mate. Things were toxic under Furner, just getting him out was going to lift the squad, addition by subtraction. Our results under agar, with a better squad, with an easier run of fixtures, without the toxic environment...Have still been rubbish and he seems unable to get them to build on any signs of improvement, soon as thers some optimism, we put a s**tshow like last night on. Theres a reason Agars a running joke among the rugby league community, especially the fans of the teams he's coached.

Tell me what he's done in his whole carreer that has you struggling to see why a lot of fans are upset with his appointment? What has Agar done that qualifies him to coach one of the 2 biggest clubs in the british game?

Im not saying anyones wrong to be optimistic about him getting the job, wish i shared that optimism...But you must be joking if you cant see why a lot of fans think we can do and excpect us to do much better.

Ps. Forgot to quote, thats in response to Karuejim

Why is it so wrong to expect appointing a top coach?

Re: New Head Coach - who's it going to be? : Sat Sep 07, 2019 6:55 am  

Announcing Agar will put the final seal on a truly dreadful season. Prepare for more of the same next year.

You've got to question Kev's future at the club too, because, if true, its another shocking call.

Cheers for the pep talk Sinny.
What i expect at an Elite RL Club like ours is an elite Coaching set up able to get the best out of a squad mixed with quality ,reliable pros & a sprinkling of our best youngsters.
Funnily enough its what most elite sporting set ups have.
I dont expect to win every game or every Trophy but a set intent of havung us competing for all of the above again.
I dont expect Bullsh!£ pr employees , a squad full of has beens & never will bes or a Poundland Coach getting a job because some "like hiim".

Re: New Head Coach - who's it going to be? : Sat Sep 07, 2019 7:36 am  

Dont expect us to be contenders for at least a couple of seasons yet , but weve got Agar next season and it looks like most of the present squad .
