He's got to be the short priced favourite.Definitely Hook.

Nope, still no idea..... who the f**k is that again
No respect for those involved in 4 grand finalsWouldn't recognise him if I saw him in the pisser at the races.
And he wants the naming rights to the StadiumProbably going a bit far to make Andre coach.
He will however chair the selection committee and get a paragraph dedicated to him in the press release on eventual hire.
And he wants the naming rights to the Stadium
"Andre Ponga Stadium" Home of Kaylan and the rest of the Newcastle Knights
Milkshake Stadium... damn right!!More likely "Home of Kaylan and his supporting cast" you mean
Wayne Bennett... while technically dying is not being sacked, I can see him being the first head coach replaced in 2023.
Hook, Adam O'Brien and Justin Holbrook are the big 3
Hook has the club in a disgraceful position, particularly off the field. No real movement in the roster. So he would have to be the favourite.
The smokey is Kevin Walters.
Newcastle have the easiest start to the season out of all 17 clubs
Warriors, Tigers, Dolphins, Raiders, Sea Eagles, Warriors
Could easily be 6-0 and all pressure will be off O'Brien, but if they don't start well rightfully so he will cop it.
Um.... those teams are all on the up, Warriors can beat the knights and have temare martin and are on the way up, Tigers have Apisai, Clems, Papali'i, a much improved squad, Dolphins we'll see, Raiders were in finals footy last season, sea eagles just won the preseason challenge, after they smashed the kinights and roosters. O'Brien or whoever that f**ker is should be packing up by thenNewcastle have the easiest start to the season out of all 17 clubs

Holbrook i agree is not someone who is failing the club, not as a coach, he doesn't seem like he is under pressure, the titans were never very lucky with games last year, their recruiting has been ok, their retention has been pittiful, letting go of fogarty has been a glaring mistake, fancy letting go of a halfback these days, there aren't many aroundHas to be Griffin, they were very lucky to go 10th last year and now they've lost Sims, McGuire, Burgess and McCullough. Don't really rate many of those fellas apart from Sims but that's a good 700 or so games of experience out the door.
All they signed was a couple players from the Tigers who of course got the spoon (And weren't even big dogs at the Tigers) and Murdoch-Masila whose a 32 year old average at best back rower. Really he should be sacked on recruitment alone.
O'Brien would be next for mine, same reasons as above, Knights were very shit last year and haven't recruited that well, early performances will be very poor and he'll get punted.
With Holbrook at least you can give him and his team points for recruiting well. Foran, Verills and Stimson have big game experience which is kind of what the Titans were lacking, they should do well enough for Holbrook to hold on for another season.
