Re Seibold doesn't a Work Visa apply to a specific job and company? If so it wouldn't help him start straight away, but probably would help him to get another.

The first thing an overseas coach will need is a GBE (Governing Body Endorsement) given his past and what he’s doing now A Seibold would obviously qualify for this no problem. Then a visa has to be applied for which again it will be a given that it’s granted but this can take up to 8 weeks. It may be possible (although I’m not 100% sure but think it is) that Leeds can take over as his sponsor from the RFU and the visa be transferred in which case he’d be available straight away. After this Leeds can then extend the visa at its expiry.

Didn't Rohan Smith come and "observe" at the Bulls whilst waiting for his work permit?

Once were Loiners wrote:

The Mole (generally utterly wrong on anything to do with SL) has suggested that Hull KR may be after Seibold for the end of the season. Sounds iffy as he says they feel like they need a change of direction, when Tony Smith is clearly doing a bang up job for them. Just adds to the mix of names floating around. I assume we find out after the Board Meeting.

It may well be true. TS has just announced he'll be leaving Hull KR at the end of the season. He also confirmed he won't be coming to Leeds

Tony Smith has said he won't be coaching Hull KR next season...



He's also said he wot be coaching Leeds either.

Rohan Smith will be head coach at Leeds next year, TS maybe there also in some capacity.

Re: 2022 | Head Coach talk : Wed Apr 20, 2022 12:12 pm  

I heard yesterday off a pretty well placed source its Rohan Smith. Didnt wanna say owt but its on social media now so…….Im expecting Rohan Smith to be announced at some point.

Re: 2022 | Head Coach talk : Wed Apr 20, 2022 12:14 pm  

I wonder why he's leaving KR? He seems to be doing a great job there. I'd be gutted if I was a Robins fan.

If it is Rohan Smith, that's distinctly underwhelming.
