Year on year few could argue the super league has got better and stronger. The days of predicting who will win matches have all but gone. The youth policy that exists is bringing more young players through in to first team football, which can only be good for our club game and long term, you would hope our national side.
However somethings are not all bright in the game. It seems the clubs desire for success hinges on the acquisition on a overseas coach. Moreover, an Australian coach.
Only this week Salford City Reds have announced the appointment of Matt Parish. 9 out of the 14 Super League clubs have an overseas coach.

We await the decision from the Wigan Warriors board as to who they will entrust to continue Michael Maguire's great work. The feeling is a home grown coach may get a shot. If they do will the board stand by the coach when like all teams they hit a tough run. Leeds seem to be doing just that with there roller coaster start to this season.
What do you think? Is our game allowing for coaching talent to develop?
