John Morris: Morris was named interim coach when the club returned from their Christmas break.
Steve Price: One of the few options the Sharks have with NRL experience. The former Dragons coach was sacked from his role in 2014 after two and a half years in the job, although he had a tough job to follow Wayne Bennett at the club. Previously, he had spent more than a decade working with the under-20s and as an NRL assistant.
Trent Barrett: The former Sharks star and Manly coach seems a logical long-term replacement for Flanagan — although it’s worth noting that Barrett resigned from the Sea Eagles citing a lack of resources and Cronulla are in a similarly desperate situation. Sensationally sacked by Penrith a month before the finals in 2018, the former Broncos and Panthers mentor is without a gig after being accused of being “old school”.
Jim Dymock: Following Des Hasler’s dramatic exit from the Bulldogs in 2017, long-time assistant Dymock was considered among the candidates to replace him. He was said to be ‘shattered’ when he was overlooked for the job, and left the club after more than a decade to join Cronulla in 2018.
Adam O’Brien: The Roosters assistant coach spent 11 seasons with Melbourne before moving to Sydney in 2018. Highly respected and well-liked, O’Brien is an NRL coach in waiting — in the same mould as Anthony Seibold before finally getting his chance at the Rabbitohs.
Cameron Ciraldo: The Panthers assistant took over as head coach in enormously difficult circumstances this season after Anthony Griffin was sacked a month from the finals. He took it all in his stride.
