Ian Millward......??

I would agree with that Anderson would sort the discipline out for sure.

Murray was given a squad that evryone knew had no future even Hetherington has admitted as much. It was at this point that the development of the youth kicked in - it took a further 5 years for that to reach fruition. Not sure you can blame Murray for a club without a short/medium term plan?

I didn't say he was the highest-achieving Leeds coach. But taking a team and a club that had underperformed for 20 years, with what was by no means its best squad in those years, and turning them into a formidable force was in ways more impressive than coaching the most impressive group of club-trained players (few of whom were signed or debuted under Smith's watch) to GF victory. Do you think Murray would have won Grand Finals if he'd been in charge of Leeds from 2004?

And I'm not sure he left the team in no state to improve: Dean Lance and GH screwed up. Bell & Barnhill for Godden & Glanville. Lawford for Newton. And then there was Lance's man-management. There are parallels today.

Add to that Murray's coaching at Illawarra, Roosters and N Qld, and Smith's record with GB then I'd say yes, in my opinion Murray is the better coach.

I think it's looking too far in the past for my liking, dont get me wrong he's a fantastic coach (or was) we shouldnt go even more backwards so to speak


Who would I suggest?! Anyone who can give a gameplan to the team....

I think he saw this coming and got out, not sure he would want to come back
