That's England fuc*ed.

I seriously couldn't give any answers who should have got that job though. But he has achieved nothing in coaching (lucky to have not been sacked perhaps?) and yet qualifies for the supposed top job in the country. A dark trip down under ahead I think.

At least somebody will be happy. Bradford fans

Like Bradford needed their underachieving coach to be distracted by something else.

He'll be going at the end of the season, but how will they manage until then?

any one know who replacing him at bradford. cant see nobby wanting to leave crusaders. hes doing some good work there. nobody expects them to achieve so its a win/win situation for him

At least he's English.

Although he's far from being the best Super League coach, he's probably the best English coach (Did I just say that?)

If his coaching skills aren't good enough to beat the opposition then tough, as that's the whole point of international competition hence why I've never supported the foreign coach approach.

Get Shaun Wane involved, he's exactly the character that the English side need within the setup.

Why not just give it Brian Smith? If he's going to be involved he may as well just take the helm.

Terrible news for England

Shambolic appointment by an utterly inept RFL.

Don't shoot him down before he has even started. Lets give the team the support they need, judge him after this Autumn.

I agree Wane should be involved. Is radderz still around the England set-up? Sculthorpe should be as well IMO.

Noble would do a decent job IMO, I will get shot down for that though.

Because he's doing such a grand job at Bradford

seriously, i reckon Wane would do a better job.

RFL your a joke

I cant see in anyway how this is a step up for the National side..Laughable
