But it’s not been good publicity for the club really (nor bad) making it seem like we might be Furner’s 2nd choice?

I think it’s more likely it was created by Souths or one of the clubs involved in the coaching merry-go-round to push one of the coaches involved to sign up.

What type of rugby are we expecting under Furner?

This is the vital question and one I'm not sure I know the answer. The thought of being coaches by another forward doesn't fill me with much excitement at this stage but Furner was a decent footballer so hopefully we have some set plays and structure to us.

We simply to have runners around Watkins and Hurrell with the aim of putting them into space 1 on 1 with a defender.

I'm just saying I'd rather see better quality with some excitement. If I wanted to be bored I'd support Wigan

Souths aren’t too shabby; his test will be working some magic with less able players. I could probably coach GI and look good.
He will like a tough team (corroborated by the type of signings we’ve been linked with).
