Franny cummins to Quins maybe?

I'm happy with this.



Good bloke is Mac and did a good job as number 2 to Tony Smith and apparently well liked and respected by players/staff at Leeds during his time here.



At least with a year as number 2 it will offer a good transition to him becoming head coach for 2012 and beyond.



As a lot of the squad only got contract extensions for 2011 it also gives Mac the chance to have some say in the make up of the squad for 2012 and beyond.

I liked him when he was at Leeds, and he's done OK at Quins with limited resources.



It certainly is a bold move for a club like Leeds going with an English coach when the currently favoured path to success in SL is to bring in a coach with NRL experience. Then again McClennan seems to have coped OK. If he is to become head coach (which seems likely) it won't happen for over a year, and I suppose we can only judge him if and when he takes over.



McCarthy-Scarsbrook to Leeds anyone?

Good point mate ,it'll give him an insight as to who he retains/signs for his 1st full season as head coach and a clever move by GH.

That would also be very nice

I'd rather Quins were able to retain the best local talent they produce to provide role models and show a pathway for young players from the South East into SL and international honours.

Was told of this a few days ago.....just waiting for official confirmation



My source is not just reliable for his steady jokes sent by text

I think LMS is off to Bradford....god only knows why



Maybe the fact that Mac will now be at Leeds could allow us to scupper any move to the Bulls..a bit like when they were on the verge of signing Ellis.



Thats assuming of course GH/Bluey have LMS on their radar?



I suspect much will depend on who comes in for Eastwood as I can only see an NRL player exchange unless we end up simply tearing up his contract and allowing him to go as most pundits don't see any NRL club stumping up £100k for his services

As mentioned previously on here. How would people feel if Bluey won the CC and GF in his last year and wanted to stay on.

Would GH be promoting Brian Mac regardless?

I think if we win at Wembley & get a decent run in the play-offs Eastwood might just change his mind & come of the list. A summer back home though might make things better... or maybe worse!

I suspect that conversation has been had with Bluey and he has probably decide to go, probably looking to the NRL, no matter what!

Yes you are probably right on that one.

Let`s hope so otherwise it could be interesting.
