Some club in the UK is going to land Jason Demetriou as a coach soon and I reckon he will be a belter, although my guess is that he will take over at Wakey once Brian Smith goes.
A lot of Wakey fans have watched his progress with interest since leaving as a player. In his first coaching season, he got Keighley promoted to the Championship. He then went back to Australia and coached the Northern Pride club in the Australian Championship (for want of a better phrase). In two seasons there, he won back to back minor premierships and the Queensland Cup Grand Final. Last year, he joined the North Queensland Cowboys coaching staff as an assistant, last seen celebrating the Grand Final win in the coach's box. This year, he's an assistant at St George Illawarra and coach of their feeder team.
If anyone has earned his spurs at a lower level, it's him. He knows England and I understand still owns a house in Wakey. Someone needs to bag him, because his price will go up.
