Wow, welcome back Gaz. Here’s a curve ball, I stated several times that Smith was headed for DOR then Grix taking over coaching. Maybe Grix suggested bringing Ellis back as defence coach while he gets on with the gig.

A great appointment , Ellis has been sorely missed.
Wonder if Jason Davidson our Head of Performance has gone??

Hull FC still holds a very special place in my heart. I still love the club. Even over the last couple of months, I’ve been watching games and shouting at the TV, which shows there’s still a great element of care there.

Gaz Ellis

Its a good job the club woke up in time and sacked Smith .
Dread to think with his poor signings as the coach where the club would be if he was the DOR.
Think we can all now see now how toxic he was within the club.
Bringing Gaz Ellis back into the club is definitely a positive move

Seems too much of a coincidence the way Ellis left under Smiths tenure and has come back not long after Smith had gone.

Maybe Smith felt threatened with Gaz at the club or he spoke up too much who knows but any club having Ellis involved can only be the better for it.

His leadership has been a huge miss in and around the club. Credit to Myler for looking deeply in to all aspects of the club and acting to get Ellis back.

Mcdermott would be a terrible appointment

That article is just a repeat of what brookes said.

Cant see Mcdermott when we have Grix and Ellis, think it will be a more attack minded coach.

Just wondering if FC have been nieve in announcing intrest in Rowley an the targe for Head Coach particularly in respect of the different outcomes ie Salford were the only quote saying thet he was staying putt. Also many quotes saying it was a done deal. I believe we will shortly see Rowley being announced as Leeds Coach ie Leeds have stepped in and outdone us. Just make sure that all the conjecture is left until someone has signed

We never announced interest in Rowley. We offered him the job, Salford made that public. Did anyone say it was a done deal?
