An impressive CV. If he is prepared to work himself up, no disrespect, it is a good sign for me.

Was he (Adamson) the big rumour before Rohan or Toovey?

I'd disagree. Its very professional looking but does not have the kind of depth and experience you would expect (even as an assistant) for a Head Coach position.

However, one name did catch my eye and is really one from left field. I remember Wayne Collins coaching me when I was playing in the Bradford youth set up (think he'd only just retired from playing with the Rhinos) and can't help think how smart he was about the technicalities of the game then.

He's now had genuine NRL assistant experience and last season was head coach of the St George Illawarra Dragons NYC side.

Neil Kelly and Jon Sharp are too old school and not overly convinced by the job Baloo did at Giants.

Doesn't leave us with much does it?

He coached them to the League Leaders Shield, their first piece of silverware in 80 years.

I think I'd take that right now

I Agree, of that list I'd go for Anderson easily, and I'd be happy with that appointment. He's one of the only ex bulls players type of coaches I'd be happy with because he has demonstrably had success as a coach. I'm still kinda expecting Jon Sharp though...

Chris Thorman has also applied

In that case I'd disagree with your disagreement. Adamson has had a broad range of experiences, rather than going straight into coaching. He also has had genuine NRL assistant experience and was head coach of the Storm NYC side, which you suggest makes Collins suitable.

I agree about Kelly & SHarp.

Some interesting stuff in that CV...
- he organised a fund raising event getting in over $350k, could come in handy after the court case
- Gary Hetherington's mobile number

I remember when someone first found that CV a couple of years ago it was put on forums and every single person commented about GH phone number being there wonder if he got any funny calls/texts

Hasn't everyone done that, though?

Not with Gary specifically, obviously, but had a call from someone (about whatever) and thought, well I've got 799 spare spaces in my phonebook and I just might need to ring him back, so I might as well add this number, seeing as it's virtually as easy to add it as it is to just delete it?
