what are peoples opinions now of john kear being head coach next season? my personal thoughts are that he should not have his contract renewed due to the fact that he wanted to go to catalans last season and now cas! how could he have wakefield truly at heart? also would anybody trust him to spend the money wisely? he has done a u-turn on the youngster theory! why don't we follow what cas did and give the kids a chance next season to give them experience and only bring in where we really need to?

also what of griffin and morrison now?

Some kids yes but we have to win games to keep the crowds

Hope we can keep Morrison and Griffin, but think we need a new coach and conditioner.

Keep nMorrison for definite, Griffin unsure, maybe a squad player

Keep Morro as not only good player but been impressed with his work with the U 20's

Griffin release had a good start but has not looked interested since he thought grass was greener......same for a few players for me

team then for next year guys i am i right in thinking you will spending to the cap next year?, if so then with some of the
good young players you have you need to bring in some quality

Sam obst

frank winterstien?

wakey can have him been decent signing for us but we have to many pivot player and he woudnt get in the 17

I'd like to keep Kear, and Morrison, but would quite happily let Griffin go. Don't rate him at all.

possible team for next year need some good player to come in

If you've signed Q from Sheffield which I've read here a couple of times you've got a "poor mans" version of Chase to play Stand Off so an organising type would be needed for scrum half.

The key is getting the right blend with the young players too, for every young player you need the likes of Morrison etc in there with them.

Thats presuming no comings and goings. Of course there will be so subject to change!

Chase-esque at Stand Off the other week on TV, brilliant foot work but not quite the same kicking game or passing ability.

Just hope potential signings are better calibre than the likes of Hickey and Semi...

Now we are in for 3 years... The likes of Annakin, Walshaw and Trout have time to become established Super League Players...

So What we need to know now is
1,Who's Staying
2 Who's going
3 Who is coming in
That incudes players and coaches

Why

Wakefield need to decide who the coach for next season is first. In the interview for the BBC, Kear didn't give the impression of a man who would be staying (to me, but maybe I'm reading too much into it).
Whoever the coach is will have his own idea of who he wants to recruit to add to the squad, and won't want to coach a pre-picked team with players on longer contracts.

We're already well behind virtually all other teams in the recruitment stakes, and need to act quickly, but not in haste, if you get what I mean.

Aside from Tongia all players currently on our books. All British as well aside from Tongia and Morrison, which gives us some scope to bring in a couple of REAL QUALITY imports if we can find them.

I'd like to see us bring in a real marquee signing, maybe at Stand-off, and use Wildie and Davey as interchange hookers.

I'd also like to see us promote some of the youngsters into the matchday squads and see what they can do - Annakin, Walshaw, Spiers, Slater

Just because we have money to spend doesn't mean we should just spend it unless the right players are available. I'd still rather see us promote the youngsters than sign average overseas players.

i'd like british players where possible.

i'd like to see us in a position where hendo can be shaken firmly by the hand and thanked by us all for his tremendous effort and service to us, but utimately released as we're in a position where he cannot be considered good enough.

actually that seems harsh on hendo, but hopefully people get my drift.

The kicking game and passing game can come from Moore all been well.

Not yet - I like the lad and I think he's got loads of potential, but the pace of his game is still some way off SL standard. He needs more time to learn his craft at SL level in my view, under a really good coach and preferably, as understudy to a wily, experienced half.

Anyone got Broughy's mobile no?
