Sky Sports putting out the names of



Trent Barrett

Ian Watson

Craig Fitzgibbon

Danny Ward



with a wildcard of

Wayne Bennett

RFL have basically ruled Wane out of the running

Richard Horne and Paul Cooke

Not so sure Trent Barrett would come back over after leaving Wigan due to homesick issues.



Watson & Ward both play a good brand of rugby league and could do well with this squad we have. Fitz nothing more to say as the guy commands respect and is highly thought of. He has plenty of coaching experience since retiring but would he come over to SL when an NRL job can’t be too far away?



Maybe Flanagan would be worth a shout highly experienced proven track record just the association with the drugs issue that’s a negative.

No chance the sooner the club hull mentalitys put to bed the better



Repeat after me just be because your born in hull doesnt mean your the required standard



Shane Flanagan please

We will end up with Brian Noble .

I doubt that very much

Has to be Steve McNamara for me, has the right sort of pedigree, knows the club but will be more distant from the players (son in the academy aside) Would command the respect of the full squad, most realistic option IMO.

Also Catalans squad isn’t too dissimilar from ours so he will have an idea straight away in terms of style of play etc. hopefully if he is one we are keen on we can pry him away - whoever comes in I think needs experience dealing with ‘big name’ players and can manage a dressing room full of egos!

It’ll be a Watson/Radford transfer; which if I were an FC fan I’d be happy with.

Decent tonight

Radfords style of rugby is from the same sheet noble used at Bradford and Wigan . AP wants to change to a more exciting brand so that should rule out noble ...hopefully.

Noble won't even be on the radar, don't know why he's getting a mention. He hasn't coached for several years, he's moved on.
