Re: Leeds....Sinfield Director of Rugby, Lowes Head Coach : Sat Jul 07, 2018 7:25 am  

this fixation of calling sinfield sir on the leeds board is an insult to them that have been given this honour, while I can respect his great playing career and he has been honoured a MBE not a knighthood, this could go all quite sour for his image if the team don't perform for him

I agree. A few bad decisions made but the worst one is by Sinfield. He needed a better job title or stay away until the ship is sailing again.

Eddy was already creaming over Sir Kev during the game last night

It will take time to see what true impact they have, but they might have a short term effect, which they need & probably against us. Looking forward it sounds like Sinfield has a lot of responsibility which may dilute his impact, he can’t do everything.

As long as the ref stays away from the dug outs shouldn’t be a problem but I pity the 4th official

I know mate we could think of thousands of other examples. E.G. Sir Rodney Walker and Sir Jimmy Saville.

The cynic in me says Shinfield will be calling the shots and Lowes will be fall guy if it all goes wrong.

I wonder if we'll get the Lowes' tantrum again if we beat them and send them in to the middle 8s.
I'm not sure he's the guy to handle pressure games.

Indeed and he lost his head when he was at Warrington and moved from the dug out's on the Western Terrace into the stand.
A fantastic player and full of passion but, a huge backward step for Leeds.
