I'd be looking at elevating Wayne Lambkin to the NRL coaching staff ..experienced respected junior coach .. knows pathways ..had the Flegg side humming..already in our system..
I'd prefer not to cannibalise parts of the club that running well.
I agree, although I don't know much about him it seems he is good with the juniors and may even be an attraction for us signing younger players to develop under his tutelage.
And then there's Gardiner and KOE. I would imagine the personal aspirations and experience of both these guys need to be taken into account if being looked at as possible NRL assistants - and nurtured by the club.
Although Gardiner surely must be close to getting a call-up if NRL coaching is an aspiration for him? Gardiner would be the more qualified of the two?
Yeah mate, despite my post that you quoted I agree, you need to create an environment of advancement to create a successful environment.
I am not sure Gardiner wants an NRL gig, he is still a part time coach.
