One of radders faults when he took over was trying to copy the Wigan method , looking at it now . Having a team full of mainly local lads with a few good overseas chucked in . That was what he and Pearson mentioned at the time how to take the club forward . It’s fine if the local lads are good enough but ours aren’t .

He's safe enough under a high ball, and is a half decent support player on a good day but thats about it.
Evalds is OOC this year. I'd be making a play for him.
Houghton gets a 1 year deal unless someone better is on the market.
A couple of seasons ago Evalds was way behind shaul in class imo . Now i would swap them both in a blink of an eye . Evalds game has come on leaps and bounds under Watson were shauls has stalled .

How many clubs in SL can appoint experienced NRL coaches, this also doesn't always work, look at Tim Sheens for example.
Really key for the future of our club we appoint the right man.
Just posing the question Dave, calm down.
I wasn't looking exclusively at NRL assistants, but our consistency in appointing assistants either internally or from the NRL, and our underachievement as a club for most of the past two decades. The ones you've listen happen to be the successful ones, there are many others that weren't so successful.
There are plenty of head coaches a little closer to home that we could look to, it doesn't have to be someone from the NRL. There's a big leap from the responsibilities of an assistant and those of a head coach, and appointing someone with experience of those responsibilities might be a sensible move during what is an unstable period for the club.

I'm perfectly calm thanks, not sure what makes you think I wasn't, just pointing out a different side to the argument.
