Wonder what his stud fee is...?

He won't be cheap.

Correct , but Salford wanted someone available mid season and wanted to see out his job at Tigers.
good signing for you guys, 6 yrs at West Tigers & in the Kangaroo's coaching set up
Given his pedigree probably knew he could punch higher than us for an ESL job.
Kurt Wrigley assistant at Souths was the other name mentioned

at the risk of being shot down what about rovers appointing anthony
seilbold or anthony sullivan to coaching staff in a capacity.

Gentle looks a strong candidate.

What if Tim Sheens calls it a day in the next couple of years? Would Gentle go back as soon as the Tigers job is available?

Sheens has another 3 years to run on his contract.

And yes of course a Aussie coach would return to the nrl if a job became available.

So the updated music and chairs situation (with added speculation).

Agar to Wakefield. Morgan to renew their local rivalry at Cas. Harris to be Wane's assistant at Wigan. Gentle for Rovers. Kear or, more likely, Noble for Hull.

Has a nice finality to it.

Cas are implying that gentle has signed on the dotted line for them and I've heard Morgan to fc

Which leave us Kear (which NH seems to have ruled out). Or Sheldon's shout of Kidwell, or suchlike.

Morgan to FC would be deeply weird.

Rovers are going down under. Morgan to Fc ? no. Pearson is no mug when it comes to fans and revenue.

That wud be a total kick in the faces of the rovers fans there are a few others in the pipe line In Australia surely If u have signed a coach as in gentle's calibre u Wud want to announce it asap, I still think Morgan to cas gentle or one of the other Australians to us hudge stated the English coaches arnt up to the same speed as the Aussies I've never known a season like it have u for players/coaches moving about wish it wud all just resolve.

Why? we dont want him anymore so why would we be bothered where he turned up?

Ok it's like Cooke coming to kr big big kick in
The teeth for fc u obviously don't go for the rivalry thing between the two teams, Morgan didn't want to stay more like other wise he wudnt have bin applying for jobs behind hudgells back

Turns out the Wilson story of Agar to Wakey is denied by Smailes of the Mail. Slumped in the chair with a exploded party poppers everywhere and crying into my gin now.



I'd like Morgan to come to FC. I think I enjoy the soap opera element of rugby league more than the actual sport. Let just say I've heard there have been talks.

Andy Wilson, or James Smailes.... who to believe? I suppose you enjoyed the thought of the Agar Out party for a good hour before it went pop? If Morgs rolls up at the KC I can see Webbo looking around for the exit door, hopefully the one pointing East for a return to his spiritual home alongside a top notch convict to complete his education.

I think I actually prefer RLfans to RL.


Even with Sky and my fortnightly DVD, I reckon I spend more time on here than I do watching the game. Saddo that I am.



Enjoying the intrigue.

Was the best hour and a half this season.

Now mrs b I wud have thought u wud have wanted to win more than the derbys, can't see Morgan going to fc if truth be known due to the connection with Pearson/hudgell or it cud be that hudgell is going across to Aus to bring sum one better across now with all of pearsons money and contacts wudnt you ave thought he would want to do this rather than go for the across citys cast off's which ur club are so against

Ratio of about 50:1 in favour of RLfans I reckon.



There are so many vacancies and so many unemployed coaches, the permutations are endless. I reckon they should do an end of season X Factor style show pairing them up.

Morgan has delivered promotion survival and consolidation in 6 years as a head coach though and needs a new challenge, perhaps at an A grade club with cash to invest where he has a point to prove and perhaps a chairman-free dressing room and recruitment process. Assistant Aussies represent potentially great returns, but don't all work out. It's a gamble either way.

Ur probably right u only have to luk at ex assistant coaches maguire and brown at giants to prove that I wud be happy to take that risk, Morgan has his favourites and if ur face dont fit woo betide any player that steps in his Way u think Agars player / position player selection has been bizarre this season luk no further than 8th spot, it will be end of an era for morgues at kr but an extra 20,000 in the stadium which are empty seats by the way will sway Morgan, I think he is Cas bound but who knows, I care about who we are going to get, hey you could end up with Newton

Did you see Nobby & Morgs sharing a laugh about the unemployed coaches "job club"? high comedy, almost as funny as Ray French calling the Cas coach Terry Patterson!

Perhaps this whole thing has been on the cards for longer than we think. Perhaps Morgan's been acting as an FC agent since he got hacked off with Masongate (had to win the derby so as not to make it obvious) and deliberately been picking random teams. Anywhere else and Morgan to the opposition team would be ridiculous. This is RL in Hull though. I think it's extremely unlikely, but it [ucould[/u happen. The King of Hull as well - would certainly bolster our pack.

Sounded to me like both were fixed up. How bad is French? Retire!
