Retiring Warrington hooker Michael Monaghan has landed a Super League coaching role, but it's not with the Wolves, could he be coming to Langtree park.

Very clever player, I'd be happy to have him on the staff. He won't be head coach anywhere though so could be any of the clubs.

That list just shows the paucity of options available really (I can only assume they have mistaken Rob Powell for Darrell Powell).

McNamara, Agar, Edwards, Noble, Kear, Potter, Millward, Rush, Wellens and Long will be nowhere near it. Sheens wont give up on the Aussies to come to SL at his age (and lest we forget was removed as Wests' coach to be replaced by the dream team of Potter and Simmons, which maybe says something about his club coaching credentials).

Meninga has never really done it at club level, so would probably represent too large a risk, even if he wanted to come. After the Simmons saga, I cant see McManus appointing another unproven Aussie assistant (and I think that well has been bled dry anyway in recent years).

Which leaves: Griffin, Powell (Darrel), Anderson, Cunningham or Fairleigh as the only contenders IMO.

If Mal wanted to come over, we'd be crazy not to consider it. He doesn't have much club level coaching, but it's the same amount as Anderson when he came over, with a similar record too. Mals affect on the players is well reported and no one can doubt his record in SOO. It would hardly be gambling on an unproven aussie.

Re: Daniel Anderson : Mon Oct 06, 2014 1:25 pm  

I can't even compute the prospect of Mal coming.

I would like to DA in a director of rugby, with Daisy as head coach. We should look at getting Long onto the team, his affect on Salford's attacking game was immense and he had a massive impact on Matty Smith's career.
I'm pretty sure Long's emotional home is at Saints and it may do him a world of good to be back here if he can contribute.
KC to continue as assistant.

If Wello wants to start coaching, then he has to start with the under 15s, then in a couple of years, if he's doing well, move him up to under 19's, then if he can make a decent fist of that promote him to assistant coach. Don't let him get fast tracked like KC did, it does no good for anyone.

I got told he was going to Widnes as assistant.

Doesn't Mal own a vineyard or something and was too busy to consider it last time around.

Why would that have changed?
