Quote Beverley red="Beverley red"Same twaddle from the same people, If he was as bad as they think how did he get the job in the first place? & why do the NRL or union clubs want him? Good luck to him at least he will be apreciated there not abused by numpty's here.'"
Because he's clearly got a good agent?
Look at his coaching record; when he took over at Bradford they were the current champions. By the time he left they were barely in touching distance of the play offs.
And that's about all he's done in terms of RL coaching. Taken a championship team and turned them into also-rans.
England/GB, no noticeable improvement in overall performance. With there only being 3 real contenders for the WC, Semi-finals were a minimum expectation. TBH, the Final itself should have been the minimum expectation along with having actually beaten one of the other 2 top teams. Neither of those goals were achieved.
As to who's going to replace him? As a full time role, it's pointless. Not even half a dozen games a year? Flying backwards and forwards to Oz occasionally (and in these days of digital media and internet phone calls does a coach even need to leave the country to see a player perform?)
And you won't attract a top current coach as the job is on a hiding to nowhere, so you're likely to only attract the guys out looking for a big pay day or guys who's coaching experience and ability is 20 years out of date.
