    Coached at Under 20s level and worked as assistant under Bellamy and Robinson, the 2 best coaches in the world so he'd be a very good replacement I think. Similar kind of path as Holbrook. Not sure this will happen though, we shall see.

    You couldn’t be a coach Don. We’d end up with a 90 man squad within 3 years because you wouldn’t have the heart to axe or move anyone on

    This would tie in with that I posted a few days ago with regards to O’Brien.

    O'Brien rejected our approach at the outset, although he would have been our main target.

    He could be a coach if they removed his teeth and replaced them with seats.

    Looking on the net at his record, he seems to have done very well at a level lower than that of the NRL

    Just had a quick look at Betfred odds and they've been suspended. Could mean there's been some movement?
    Current odds at suspended time are...

    Kristian Woolf 2/1
    Jason Demetriou 2/1
    Adam O'Brien 5/1
    Shane Flanagan 9/1
    David Fairleigh 9/1

    According to reports, both O'Brien and Demetriou have said they are not interested. Woolf seems to have done well at development level, but it seems he is our 3rd choice.

    Wouldn’t read too much into reports, they all said Holbrook hadn’t got the Gold Coast job/ had withdrawn until a couple of days before his appointment.

    To be honest apart from Demetriou the other two are a bit of an unknown quantity to me. I'm sure there is enough depth in the NRL that we will get someone decent.

    I don't know if its just me but I get the impression there are not many decent assistant coaches willing to take on a gig in Superleague. Could we be heading for a "Hobson's Choice" scenario because the right man at the right time is not available.

    If we are down to 3rd choice you may be right, but I'm still hoping not.
