It looks a massive job to me. We were woeful yesterday. Defence was a joke at times. They look so unfit. My choice would be Griffin but I think they are all a gamble.

Could be difficult to get anyone to agree to the job as it is, essentially Sinfield’s scapegoat!

Is it any different to being Hetherington's scapegoat?

Leeds is a big rugby league club and not many coaches would turn the job down if we are honest.

Also I would have thought the fact the Sinfield would do all the press and things like that could be appealing to a coach? Not many of them seem to like this aspect of the job

Sinfield is as near a household name as a RL player will get and the club know this .When the new coach is appointed Sinfield will resume his role of Director of Rugby with responsibility for recruitment and player retention and speaking to the Media . I personally think once the ship has been steadied I.E the development etc He will be the next CEO as GH retires as club president

If we take on a proper head coach then the head coach will talk to the media etc., surely?

Re: The next Rhinos coach should be : Sun Sep 02, 2018 1:59 pm  

Definitely.

The way things are going it will be a case of who wants the job, not who the club want

This is exactly what will happen. I don’t think for a minute that GH actually expected BMD not to see the season out. My understanding is that GH made the decision to bring Kev in to replace him as he retires over the next 12-18 months, and Brian didn’t want to work under Kev, so issued a back me or sack me. We know the rest.

Why? Lowes is head coach now isn’t he, as I say coaches tend not to be great in France nt of the camera so letting Sinfield do it may be a selling point.
