i doubt very much that the current incumbent will be going anywhere in my opinion.

Someone who actually can work out what to do and get the best out of they have.

Not easy, but in a 13 man game, it's a good idea to use all the players.

FWIW RL is not that complicated and a little nounce and thinking outside the box can go a long way if developed right. It needs everyone on side to do it and that is very difficult at times.

Harrison left Halifax and they have done well so would not want him.

He seems to be in the same mould as March and was too matey with the players. Or so it seemed when ever I watched after match presentations at shay.

Paul Cullen talks good rugby but has poor tactics and didn't get the best out of Warrington (or Widnes).It took Smith to sort out the players, moving on those who were a bad influence and threatening to send Briers on loan to a lower division team until he saw things his way.

Harrison is a crash and bash merchant with five drives and a kick mentality.

We need a JD type coach who can bring a professional, creative attitude toward gameplay, training, fitness, player welfare and youth development.
We need a coach who the players will respect and who will sort out those that want to do it "their way".
We need a coach who can extract the maximum from individuals and blend a team who's performance is greater than the sum of its individual parts.

I'm not asking for a lot really

We could do worse than bring Steve Dekin back.
Very experienced coach with experience of coaching here and overseas.
Also knows the club and certainly not a mate of any of the present players.

Deakin would be a good choice.

JD has just been part of the coaching team that won the NRL grand final.
