Yeah Mike Ford has been listed as a candidate for the England job. A former Wigan scrum half from the 80's so at least it can't be seen as League poaching Unions coaching talent since he was a RL player originally.white elephant wrote:Heard a rumor today, might be total rubbish but the RFL are in talks with rugby union coach Mike Ford.
Like i said might be BS ! :doz:
As has John Kear, who was listed as a candidate by the first poster!eccywarrior wrote:ellery hanley would be a excellent choice but he has done it beforewiggydoran wrote:Coach with a bit of experience that is currently out of the game......
I was think Ellery Hanley.
Edwards is considered full time by his main employers - London Wasps. He also is part time assistant coach with the WRU. I don't think Wasps would allow him to have two part time positions! I say this because the RU Autumn internationals start in November, not long after/during the Four Nations.DaveO wrote:The RFL say they want a full time coach so that rules out all existing SL coaches.
Would they consider Edwards "full time" because he has no other involvement with RL if he kept his RU jobs?
Doubt the RU mob would allow it anyway but it's an idea.
Can't see what Hanley brings to the table. Coaching a lower division side for a while doesn't exactly set him up for tactical jousts with the likes of the Aussie and NZ coaches.
