Soon to be announced as new head coach of Hull FC

[Hughsehhh]

Wow

[Wellsy4HullFC]

Would love this, but sounds too good to be true.

[LeeF]

Wasn’t he in line to take over from Ganson as Head of Referees?

[Hela Wigmen]

Could see this. Would be a good appointment but a big loss to Cas.

His time at CAS has run its course 

[EastLondonMike]

Would be great for Hull if it happens. Maybe not so great for Cas.

[Gates1]

Guttered if true.  Seems an odd time for Orr to have left to further his coaching career elsewhere.  

Would like to see Cas make a play for Danny Ward if so.

Still a big loss. 

[Gooleboy]

Good luck to him if correct, working for Adam Pearson.

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

So that's him and Watson then?  Dream Team.

Yeah, I mean giving someone only 6.5 years to prove themselves. What gives? Slave driver.

[JohnM]

News just in:  his appointment as Head of Happiness at the RFL has been confirmed.

Agreed, probably best for him and Cas, there are a number of great young coaches who could do well there, though not so good news for (the obvious one) York.

Why? They’re an established SL club with everything (other than the ground) going for them compared to YCK?

Rumours of him becoming assistant at Cronulla.

I think the Powell era at Cas has come to a natural end. They either rebuild and keep challenging for playoffs or go back to join Wakefield at the foot of the table

If????? 

[Davo5]

Don’t understand why the club are looking past Andy Last,seems to have turned the team around,playing some exciting rugby,Powell overated and his constant need to attach blame to someone else to disguise his shortcomings is tiresome,

I'd say he's very good at getting the best out of resources available to him. The big question mark over him is when it comes to the 'big' one off games where he seems to get it wrong far more often than not (1 win in 6 finals I think).

Would be a good move for Powell and Hull I think. Danny Ward to Cas looks like a perfect fit too. He is going places.
