LOL no way. Would be surprising to find a club that will let him coach U10's
Bluey McLennan's mud here in NZ right now so they figure they can't do any worse....they're going to have the 3 worst performing coaches at the same game - Kearney, McLennan and Cleary!

Rumour Mill: The new NRL chief executive will be named this week. The hot rumour doing the rounds last week was that NZRL chief Jim Doyle - who quit his post last week - was to be named. That is unlikely to happen now with Shane Mattiske the man to be crowned as boss. Gillon McLachlan is the NRL's first choice, but apparently his asking price was too high.The New Zealand Warriors are believed to be chasing Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy, with St George Illawarra and the Sydney Roosters also in the mix. Bellamy would be a great fit at the Warriors and may be swayed by the club's amazing array of young talent. Mick Potter, Stephen Kearney and David Kidwell are also said to be in the mix. Manly prop Brent Kite is expected to be released by the Eagles due to salary cap pressure. Kite will be at the Tigers.

Jim Doyle already ruled himself out of taking the role over a week ago.

Brett Stewart signs on for another 4 years with Manly.

http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/...eal-ensures-eagles-future-20120829-25151.html

Also in the article, not sure if its mentioned here already or not but just repeating.

Five-eighth Kieran Foran re-signed despite the lure of Hasler, halfback Daly Cherry-Evans extended his contract while hooker Matt Ballin and centre Steve Matai committed to the club. While their young forwards Darcy Lussick and Daniel Harrison will switch to Parramatta, but the core of the squad will remain.

lol.....no.

Not with the way our team is structured. We have plenty of offense. Adding a defensive liability for more offense is retarded.
zomglmfaohthrofllol...no.

We have plenty of defence too buddy, way more D than O we have zero players that are liabilities on D (next year three players who aren't tremendous defenders; Inu, Barba,TRex), whereas we have no first-choice kicker, we don't score any points from kicks and we don't score inside the opp. 20m. Luke Walsh would solve all of these problems.

Not saying we should offer the kid the bank, or even chase after him, but objectively the guy is alot better than Hodko and would fit in better.

Not sure who you're talking about signing, but in regards to we have no first choice kicker. Wrong. In regards to we dont score ANY points off kicks, wrong.

Have a look at the highlights reel. Reynolds kicks for Barba, Inu, Morris, Wright etc. Has happened quite a bit.

Edit - In my opinion.
