Maybe like me, most people don't know much about Woolf? I just read his Wikipedia page and am very impressed.
en.wikipedia.org
He has been coaching for 20 years in a variety of settings and levels. He's had success at junior and lower grade level, and has recent success with St. Helens, winning the last 2 Super League grand finals and a challenge cup! He sounds like a great candidate and better than Flanagan, because there's no baggage or history.
Get him up here, I wanna boof him! Seriously, I don't know why there isn't more talk about him, but like I said, it's probably because people aren't aware of his credentials. The fact he has been in Grey Britain for years means he's not in the spotlight too.
If I read the wiki correctly, he has an option with St. Helens for next season, so if he hasn't taken that yet, he's available.
