Agreed. Im not hung up on him having to commit to a 3/4 year deal like some. Get him in. get him backed with whatever he wants and let him at the very least set the club up for the next coach.

Basically it’s very very rare that a coach of his quality is available to a SL club, we need to do whatever we can to keep him even if it’s for a short while.

I love listening to Arthur talk. Barely a word is wasted. Incisive, clear, direct, critical without being derogatory. I have been hugely impressed with the intelligence & humility of Matty Peet's comments, especially after match, more so than any British coach at the moment, but he doesn't appear to have the depth of player & team analysis that Arthur does.

The NRL is a different planet to SL. Arthur is good but not outstanding coach - he is no Craig Bellamy or Cleary yet he is light years ahead of all the coaches in SL. His understanding of what is required to develop a cohesive team that goes on a field and understands what is needed shines through.
Half of this Leeds squad wouldn't survive a pre-season under Arthur - hopefully he stays and brings in his own backroom people especially a strength and conditioning coach and two serious assistants.
