OPINION: With Nathan Brown gone, Stuff looks at 10 possible Warriors coach options for 2023.

When your coaching future is on the line as a young coach the Warriors is hardly the safe option. But Flanagan is a high-quality coach who has won a premiership with the Sharks, who were not in a dissimilar state to the Warriors when he took charge. Another young man with a big NRL coaching future but he was stitched up at Sharks and will be wary of his next appointment. But Woolf doesn’t really have any NRL head coaching experience, so he’s not the perfect option and does he want to risk his coaching future on a club with all kinds of issues over staying at St Helens, the Bulldogs, Tigers and anyone else who is down on their luck by the end of the season?

A Manly legend who expressed an interest when Brown scored the job. You need journalists close enough to smell the liniment. Held in extremely high regard as one of the most promising future NRL head coaches around. Has taken Tonga from heroes to zeros and since joining St Helens has won back-to-back Super League grand finals and the Challenge Cup. Not that it seems to matter any more, but he is off-contract at the end of the season.

Getting players to come to a club when you're down low – and the Warriors have been down low for about 10 or 11 years – so that's not easy," Brown told NRL 360. I want to help another coach keep their job so (the media) stay off their backs. While the Warriors have had some misses with the recruitment in the past couple of seasons – with Matt Lodge and Euan Aitken both also telling the club they would not move to New Zealand – the have inked several exciting talents under Brown's watch. That's the kind of coach I am. In two seasons at the helm, he coached the team to a 12-25 record; finishing 12th in 2021 and currently sitting 13th this season. "Basically, I said to them 'well, that's pretty much the end of my coaching career.'
