Willy Poching-should he stay orshould he go? : Sat Feb 27, 2016 8:03 pm  

A bit too early to say really but the performance was far better with a good defensive effort and players running on to the ball at least we did the basics right.
I'd much prefer somebody with experience and a proven track record but which way will Neil and Rob go?

Chester got the job on the back of 1 good game v St Helens, let's not rush into the same mistake again.

We are already destined for the middle 8's so let's plan a bit longer term and get the right man.

Willy has talked a good game to date, I like his emotion and his persona. I would be happy at this stage to keep him on a temp contract until the boards first choice becomes available / they make a decision. poching seems like a breath of fresh air after sandercocks constant excuses and Chester's dull drone of 'well we know we all must do better' I like a coach to wear his heart on his sleeve, and if he can get the lads to play like that, after the recent rubbish; he must be a step up even if only for a short period

I'd see how he does over a few weeks as caretaker, then reassess.

Give him a real chance, but also leave options open.

I wouldn't preface the names of any of the other candidates being bandied about with 'we really can't afford to miss out on...', so IMO there's no rush.

My guess though is that they'll want 2017's coach confirmed and in place no later than June, whether it is Poching or somebody else.

At the risk of being shot down in flames I don't like poaching and don't want him he should have gone with Chester IMHO . We cannot appoint another untried rookie coach and hopefully go with someone with experience

Big Willy definitely needs to stay until we have appointed a new coach, which I reckon won't be him. We have been dire defensively during his time under Chester.

I know Willy is a huge fan of this forum and has huge respect for all the posters and contributors on here, as he clearly gets his cues and pointers for basic tactics and gameplan from us.

So first thing Monday and once you've read this Willy, please pick Sio at FB, Dixon on the wing and Minns at centre next week at Widnes. That will focus us in training. Ta.

No no no and no again. We must learn from past mistakes. We need a head coach who has been there and done it at the highest level. If Poaching stays the 5 year plan will take ten. By that time we could be relegated

If we appoint poching we'll just be in the same position this time next year Chester started with a big win over saints and we all know how that ended he should have gone with Chester

I see the goose's prediction of miltiple Mis-spelling of Wille's surname is coming to early fruition. Excellent.
