Ive heard a rumour both clubs will be moving from Headingley whilst it is redeveloped

Best one yet that one and I daren't post it elsewhere just yet,but if that is the case why are the coaches from both clubs attending the pressed?

Andrew Dunnemann
Trent Barrett

No idea about the coaches, just a rumour Ive heard. Would a Coaching appointment really be the biggest announcement in the clubs history? I have no idea really but I hope it is to do with redevelopment

Dunneman is an agent now I think, I don't think he coaches anymore.

Russell Crowe has purchased the club I've not heard

The only question to ask when Leeds make these dual code announcements is, and always has been: what's in it for Leeds Rhinos? What will it help the club achieve that they wouldn't be able to given their own financial resources and their own power within Rugby League.

At almost every single turn in the history of the joint code arrangement at Headingley, you could find plenty of reasons why things were good for Leeds Tykes, not so many that they provided any benefit to Leeds Rhinos.

But perhaps I'll be pleasantly surprised...

[size=150"Both clubs will be making the announcement, which is one of the most significant in the history of both teams, "[/size With the best will in the world, I can not see how changes to the coaching staff of either or both clubs, lives up to that billing.

For mine it has to be about infrastructure or sponsorship. But what are the odds we're all thinking "Meh" by 12:30pm

Why would Leeds make a joint announcement about infrastructure? It's not like the RU club can afford to contribute anything or needs a bigger or improved stadium. Whatever money the new owners have has to go into plugging the gaping holes in their day to day finances.

I don't like close ties with RU and I can't help my attitude at my age.Keep your friends close but your enemies closer Don Corlieone . RU have been trying to close down RL for 120 years .Lets see what they are bringing to the table .At this moment in time Headingley is too large for YC RU

Anything to do with the stadium would have had to go through so many pairs of hands even at the first stage (planners, banks, YCCC, architects, builders, council) that it would have leaked out from somewhere well before any press conference.

But I don't see how a new coaching set-up could be "the most significant announcements in both clubs' history"

Anyway... a bit of showbusiness from GH. We'll see tomorrow.
