I thought Baloo did the job last night. Got the boys focused at half time and took Brough and O Donnell off when the game was won.

Nathan Brown wasn't there and I wonder if he'll be travelling to France.

I heard a rumour yesterday that Brown has signed a two year extension but has 28 days to decide.

so he is going or staying

That would be great. Think he could put. Great legacy in place with us, and he is a young coach, with many many years ahead of him. Nice if he did not race back to the inevitable nrl.
If he does go my vote for pa. We need to keep evolving and pa is best placed to keep the Grow and development going.

There is always going to be high profile overseas coaches knocking around and we have a succession plan in place with pa, so would go with it.

I would say it is more likely down to whether he gets an NRL head coach job or not.

I saw him up in his usual spot also. Would love to see Brown stay - however if he leaves, everything is in place for the club to progress. He has brought in some good youngsters, made some class signings and developed players individual games massively. All the systems are in place which Paul Anderson can carry on if he leaves.

I do feel he has done the job he came here to do and he has done it well, though if he does leave I would love to see him go with something to show for his efforts.

He wasn't coaching the team though as he's been busy with baby.

Anderson for me. he.s served his apprenticeship. will have learnt a lot from Sharp. and even more from Brown.
Knows the players. the drills and systems.will have his own ideas. but doubt he will change much.
Have seen him in training an at the gym. players seem to like and respect him. as a player he.s been there and done it.
Doubt he would make any wholesale changes to the squad. if any.
Continuity.l like . so worth the gamble. very short odds for me
