Is McNamara worth a punt?


Several final appearances and brought through a lot of local youngsters.


No other proven top coaches available, so would it be worth giving him a year to see what he can do?   If he’d accept a one year contract of course…

Monaghan (Michael) was also famous for being in a huge grump after any loss due to actually giving a toss. Like Pitt in Moneyball he hated losing more than he enjoyed winning - we could do with some of that attitude.Don’t think you’d get a shrug of the shoulders and a ‘we were tired’ nonsense after a pitiful defeat from M Monaghan.

You need to follow the lead of leeds and Hull who have both appointed experienced NRL coaches but also new DOR's who actually know what they're doing recruitment wise, and then let them get on with their jobs with no interference - easy at Hull where the owner is the father in law of the DOR (although now CEO but still doing the DOR job).


No surprise both clubs are on an upward trajectory.


Appointing burgess was always going to be a big gamble, which rarely pay off

In contrast we have an inexperienced rookie head coach, an inexperienced DoR (who has no pro RL experience outside of Warrington), and a CEO that started life as a volunteer player welfare officer. 

Problem is, neither of those people give a stuff about us.
