I personally hope not, he has been a good coach in the past but you only have to look at his last years at Bradford and in particular Wigan where they couldn't see the back of him quick enough. I personaly want to see the best RL coach possible for my club and whether you like it or not, the fact is that the Australians are still the best in the world at the present time when it comes to playing and coaching, in most cases their records speak for themselves.

I think in the end there were issues at both Wigan & Bradford, Nobby has won more than any other British coach, and let us not forget what he did at Crusaders last year....I am glad you do not want him though as I am hoping we get him

By the time Noble left Wigan he had built a very good team IMO. They were very close to a GF that year and I feel he left a good legacy which Maguire benefited from.
Not saying I want him or don't want him but I feel he did a better job at Wigan than he is given credit for.

Mmmmm! the fact as you have stated,he may have had issues at both clubs would be enough to start the alarm bells ringing for me, the question would be, what were those issues that he had with two top clubs? and whats to say those issues would not become apparent again at another club, just a thought. Anyway, everybody will no doubt have their personal choice of candidates in mind for the job if it becomes vacant( and it is still an if at this present time), the next few weeks could be very interesting indeed.

I'd agree with that. Maybe one day, but as a minimum I'd want somebody who has been a head coach in the championship or an assistant in SL for a couple of years.
