yea miles better then the current set up we have.

The toys are out the pram big style there

id have him back.

No thanks.

Did well at Hull but I think we've moved on. Besides which Agar is going nowhere.

McRae has a proven record of coaching teams populated with very good players and getting results but not cutting it with teams of lesser ability. Our progress under him majored on one or two decent players but I still blame him for the no half back legacy we're still suffering from. He's a good media and contacts man and a nice guy to boot so Director of Rugby or similar would be the only way I'd have him back perhaps in tandem with a proper coach in the mold of Brian Smith.

Totally agree with that.

If, as seems likely, Agar is going nowhere, how about McRae as Director of rugby in place of Sharp?

Replace a cheap clueless idiot who has achieved nothing with, an expensive clueless idiot who has achieved nothing recently.

excellent, no, really.

You can have him. I will personally drop him off in Hull.

your not wrong.....BACKWARDS

Do you really think the way he was treated prior to leaving he would entertain coming back to the current set up.....no way!!

I'd have him back, just look at the style of rugby we played when he was here.

A comment I thought reminisant when he took his bat and ball home over the "Cancer" at our club. He seems to get to apoint when he ahs had enough then the lid blows off!

I reckon fair play to him, I'd rather have someone with a bit of backbone. Wouldn't you want to deal with those who were making personal comments rather than about your professional ability.

I'd have him back as a DOR.

Would improve our attacking play no end, and probably bring through our younger players better than we have recently. Probably wouldn't lead us to win anything, but would at least get us amongst the contenders again.

I would, however I reckon Nobby may get that role.

Can't believe people would have him back. He gets criticised on the Salford board more than Agar does on here and that's saying something, also the fact that expectation is much higher for us (CC winners/GF in the recent years) it's not very good for McRae at all.

Now I have seen McRae drinking alcohol on plenty of occasions.

no, No and thrice NO.

Salford have performed above expectations this season IMO. Just because their fans think they are better than they are doesn't mean he is a poor coach. As I said before I wouldn't have him back as Head coach but I would have him back in a Director of Rugby type of role as he would bring some much needed experience to the whole set up.

For what it would cost to get McRae or Noble in as DOR I'd rather we payed the money for a top class coach.

Agree, however I have heard Nobbys name crop up on a couple of occasions now

I'm very surprised at the amount of criticism he gets from Salford fans. I don't have an in-depth knowledge of their squad so maybe it's a bit stronger than I realise but the fact remains they are a newly promoted side who were never going to do any more than consolidate this season. They have had some hammerings, but they've also pulled off some very good results (beating Saints for example).

That said, I wouldnt want him back at Hull. Hypothetically, I'd take him over Agar in a second, but in terms of our long-term progression it would be a mistake to bring him back IMO.
