Arf! Very good point though!!

Like it.

I'd think that if Millward Gets the job it is as a precursor to him getting the full job come the end of next season. As I was moving I only listened to the game last weekend and afterwards he did say that he only had one more year coaching at Salford and you got the impression that he wouldn't even try to get rehired.



I would think the one person who'd job would also be at risk would be Mal's as I'd think that Millward would would at some point bring in Robbie Paul as his #2 and don't think there is/was any love lost between Alker and Paul.



I very much hope that Millward doesn't get the job as infighting for a year would be a bad thing for me and think we need to be aiming much higher when we are looking for our next coach.

NO!! Lets not go mad, the rugby genius is working minor miricles producing gareth owens The rugby genius has already got the top job @ the club because having good youth means you have a good future unless he wants to be a superleague coach and he states that why change the only thing that works @ the club

Think it'd be a bad move, hes not better than McCrea I think, one is bad enough, but two.

I can't see it happening but if it did I'd remain open minded. Both have proved they can win things with quality players. If you consider we will have what looks a much better squad next year, having two experienced coaches around could possibly help the team as long as they are both capable of working together.



Lets not forget the club have been one light in the backroom staff dept since Scott Naylor went. By appointing two new extra coaches surely this can only benefit the individual players and the team as a whole. (More coaching time for specific smaller group training sessions, etc?)

Oh jesus i have only just heard this im praying it doesnt happen we already have one useless coach with about no comitment why do we need two of them.



Both useless in my eyes.

Who would you choose then? i know Alan is enjoying his role that he is doing, as he mentioned this at a forever reds meeting. i think that if an oppertunity arose that a position would be available then i would prefer Hunty rather than Millward. He only won things with Saints as like Mcrae they were a great side that didnt need much coaching. Either you or i could have coached them. What has Millward done since?

You're talking out of your backside. Both McRae and Millward are extremely dedicated coaches. Millward is also very passionate about his teams. Whatever their qualities as coaches may be - and we were happy with both of them, but especially loved Millward - to question their commitment is to truly talk out of your backside.

Have you seen McRae's body language? I'm not saying he doesn't care, but his body language alone suggests this isn't the same guy that managed Saints and Hull. He's lost definitely lost his (sorry about the terminology) mojo. The lack of confidence he has in himself is reflected in his players. Every season he's been in charge, the team has looked woefully short on confidence.



What's Millward got left in the tank?



Daniel Anderson is highly regarded as being a good coach and Penrith............. let me stop there. coach saints, possibly another Super league team, end up back in OZ, bomb out and come back to the UK without having a great deal of success. Anyone else see the similarities.



Putrill would probably be a better option. Not been saddled with the responsibility of head coach roles, learnt his trade under coaches who know how to play the game and has been involved with the hands on day-to-day stuff.

Maybe that's because the fans all berate him for having to coach a team that isn't good enough to play in superleague but he hasn't been able to change that due to financial restrictions over which he has no control. Give him some meat and he'll make a tasty pie. Give him gristle and all you'll get is a sick feeling in your stomach.



Oh, and Daniel Anderson coached the New Zealand team to a series win prior to coming to St Helens. He's now with the Eels and during the first season he got them up the table and to the Grand Final. All the Saints players say he is the best man manager they've ever worked for and he got things out of our lads that Potter would never even come close to getting.

I bet he would.
