I agree edwards has been a master technician in union and league legend would take a princelly sum to bring him back from 15 man but the RL should try for the good of the country! If Tomkins is hailed as the new Edwards let the old Edwards nurture him.

IMO John Kear..



Whoever takes it SHOULD NOT be a clubs coach/Director of football etc, they should be independent.

Like i said....he was pi$$ poor last time he did it and he had a better class of player then......needs to be overseas or Edwards/Hanley/Lydon.....players of that ilk.

English coach for me. So John Kear is probably the best option then Brian Noble. Other Super League options would be McDermott, Agar and McNamara.

Jesus christ nooooooo....................he was bloody useless as GB coach...and the others arent much better.

i would'nt go anywhere near them coaches



kear and noble failed before



agar,mcdermott and mcnamara are less than average sl coaches



wayne bennett would be my choice, been there with the aussies, helped NZ win the world cup with Kearney, (also wouldn't have best mate syndrome when picking the england squad

)

I'm not bothered about nationality of the coach , But i would like someone who likes to promote an expansive game plan. We'll never beat the Aussies at their own game .We must play to the strengths of the English game.

English team = English coach for me.

Agree, but do we have any english coaches of the right calibre?

I would try and lure Shaun Edwards over again though I doubt he would come just yet.



The Aussies seem to have a team of coaches usually ex internationals looking after their international squads (and Origin) maybe we should utilise some of our ex GB players such as Denis Betts, Phil Clarke, etc. in similar roles.

shaun mcrae??? Hanley???

Not a bad call. Has had international experience as conditioner to both the Aussies and Kiwis.
