Thank god he turned it down!.....He has no experience what so ever, and given his exploits personally I doubt he will rock the world in his coaching pursuits, what will he do as an award system take the lads on the lash.

Think a few people need to get over what Long did in the past and realise that people can mature and change over time.

Long has said himself that he sees a long learning curve in coaching - he was talking about several years as an assistant before even considering a head coaching role. He may be many things but he isn't stupid.

You think Agar could teach Shaun Edwards how to coach!!...PMSL

One of the best coaches in the world in another sport

Ellery Hanley was a great player. Didnt make him a great coach.

I think we need more than a motivitor of men. If we do get rid of Agar lets at least hope for someone with a proven track record in Rugby LEAGUE

Actually I do. I also read several other twitter streams from sportsmen in both RL and Cricket. Nothing extraordinary in Long's tweets. You've clearly got a problem with him - which is fine, but it's stopping you from having an objective viewpoint.

Daily Star reporting
Shaun Edwards being at the KC the last 2 mornings, and has already had talks with AP ?

If AP were to be interviewing for Agar's replacement, I highly doubt he would do it at the KC.......
