Sean Long still helping out at Saints. He was helping the Saints u15 Scholars train tonight.

Maybe he as a coaching job lined up once he retires ?

Thought he already had retired

Really? That is nice to see.

Scully and Long as a coaching combo would certainly inject the passion back onto the terraces and into the players that we need to get out of this 'transition' hole we've dug for ourselves recently.

Would be great to have Longy back in a coaching capacity at some point.

not from what I (or anyone else) could see, of the game in the fog

That depends on if he turns out to be a good coach or not.

Kez said in the Hull Daily Mail that he is looking to be on the coaching team next season but also stated that he would love to coach alongside Justin Morgan one day. Maybe those two will be the next Welsh dream coaching team!!

As for Longy its good to see him still putting something back into the game. Its given him so much through his life its only fair he helps to nurture the new Sean Long and boy does the English game need another half back like him or better!

Or maybe Saints have Justin Morgan lined up to replace Potter ?

That would just be a sideways move though.

Look how Mcguire has rejuevanted WIgan and he was only an assistant.

We need an NRL coach

Potter came from the NRL and he's nothing to write home about. If someone 'great' came up then fine, but we shouldn't go down thre route of appointing someone just because they are Antipodean with experience in the NRL.

Saints need a coach who has the ability to motivate players, inspire them even. We need someone who can get the best from limited resources compared to the other strong teams.

He came from coaching a youth side down under and went to Catalans for his initial first grade coaching post. So far as I remember from the info given to us before his arrival here he's never had first grade NRL coaching experience.


In other words, we need a good coach? (You've just described what a good coach does, anyway)
