Next step get rid of the useless assistant coaches, then weed out of the playing squad the dross that we seem to have acquired. Let’s get back to being a serious club once again, instead of an experiment in reinventing the rugby league wheel.

I'd like to see Arthur bring in his own back room team, but we should definitely have at least a couple of coaches on his team who will remain after he goes, in order to maintain standards. I hope that's not Chev and Grix though
As I understand it, you can basically only have a single Australian/oversees coach on staff, other assistants and backroom would have to be 'domestic'. So who from SL would be choose to bring in? Arthur is unlikely to know this market for staff, so I would expect Blease to lead on this with a possible succession plan in mind for 2027 (if Arthur stays for 2 years).
I don't know that Walker and Grix are bad assistants, the head coach is the leader and person who gives strategic direction, the assistants should improve under Arthurs direction as much as the players do.
For those saying Athur is already the best coach in SL, let's just see how he gets on. Loads of reason for optimism, but also loads of rugby to be played, including a really tough fixture for magic. This group of players really aren't known for back-to-back performances.

Interesting posting, I wasn’t aware of the single Australian rule. This presumably is the opportunity for Blease to have some input. After all that’s why he was brought into the club. Who knows maybe BA is happy with the back room staff. If not it’s definitely an interesting scenario. Potentially should put various ex players going into coaching on red alert. You are right about the magic game, huge test for the team to give a repeat performance to match the Wigan game. BA remarked after the Wigan game that you need to replicate a high quality performance every week.
