NATHAN Brown has become the first coach to officially rule himself out of contention for the vacant New Zealand Warriors coaching position.
The Daily Telegraph can also reveal that Kangaroos coach Tim Sheens is unlikely to be appointed and the Warriors aren't overly keen on Wigan coach Shaun Wane.
Another option, Neil Henry, appears comfortable as Gold Coast assistant coach.

It seems the position is so toxic no one really wants the job.
Tony Iro and interim coach Andrew McFadden remain in the hunt. McFadden is firming to favouritism, provided he can secure some winning results this season.
Insiders suggest he must guide New Zealand to the finals to be named head coach in 2015.
If he can't, no-one quite knows what the Warriors will do.
The position became available after the club sacked Matt Elliott on Sunday night.
Brown has enjoyed significant success in his five years with Super League clubs Huddersfield and St Helens and was expected to nominate for the Warriors position.

But Brown told The Daily Telegraph from St Helens on Tuesday night he was happy to remain in Super League.
"I'm quite happy and content where I am,'' Brown said.
"I'm quite satisfied at the moment.
"The big thing is timing and the timing must be right.
"I've got a good job here. I would like to come home and coach one day but it's not really an option at the moment.
"We are very happy where we are."

St Helens has won all seven games to start the Super League season.
"We are undefeated so far," Brown said proudly.
"We brought through a lot of kids last year and they are performing strongly for us.
"As I said, I would like to come home to the NRL one day but timing is the key."
Wane was thought to be a favourite after his success with Wigan.

He is also close friends with Warriors football operations general manager Dean Bell.
But well-placed sources are adamant Wane won't be heavily considered.
Sheens, as World Cup winning coach, certainly has the credentials and is looking for another NRL job.
Warriors officials, at the moment, haven't spoken about Sheens with any depth.
Warriors CEO wayne Scurrah told the New Zealand media that McFadden deserved the job at least for this season.

"(It wasn't) a difficult decision to put Andrew in the job once Matt resigned," Scurrah said.
"We know his calibre and we know what the players think about him.
"He's made of the right stuff and with what he's told us about what he wants to do and how we wants to operate. I think he'll be a breath of fresh air for the club, not only in replacing Matt, but in general.
"Andrew absolutely understands what players have to do and what their obligations should be in terms of being professional and consistent, and I'm confident that he's got their support in wanting to do that as well."
