It was an interesting comment that Barrie Mac made on Sky, Lowes is a great coach but doesn't want to do all of the other 80% of the work that a coach does when off the field.
This sounds like a bit of a smoke screen to get Sinfield to do that 80% and allow Lowes just to have that 20% input with the players. Announced in such a fashion to make it appear that Sinfield will be doing all of the work and will definitely be the focus of the media.

Could be a good combination as Lowes has the coaching background and Sinfield has the ability to front up to the media.

Less than one season. Retired in 95 was coming to us in a player coach capacity but doug laughton got the boot so bell went fulltime coach. Then played in first summer season

looks like a 1.5 years gap. early 95, played late 96

Anyone who watched John Holmes come back in 86-87 wouldn't want to see Sinfield come back. It was hard watching a player who's legs had gone try to go around again. That was after just one year away and he was 34 - Sinfield has been away for 3 years and will soon turn 38.

I know what you mean but I seem to remember John Holmes ripping Saints apart at Knowsley Road one sunny Sunday afternoon.
