Look at the team we had available and we very nearly beat the top side in SL in a knock out game. It takes good coaching to get a team with no halfbacks that goes down to 12 men to compete in that game.

Masterclass might be a bit hyperbolic but my point stands.

Along with that Wigan semi it was one of the finest game specific plans i've seen from a Leeds coach. I don't think masterclass is overstating it. If we'd kept 13 men I reckon we'd have won.

Come on, let's calm down.
It was a very good performance by an under strength team against a side who under-estimated them.
Coaching masterclass?
Please.

How did you rate the coaching for the HKR game?

The only reason we were close to winning the Saints game was down to the decisions the coach made in terms of tactics and personnel. A 50 point spanking would have been the par score.

I wonder when we will hear an announcement about Kevin ?

So there it is " Onwards and upwards "

Sounds like he wanted to be a coach in everything but name for us. If your involved in the coaching side of things and performances aren’t going well, you’re going to be under scrutiny. Perhaps he didn’t think he should be.

Do you know having read both his and Hetheringtons statements I think this is for the best, it seems they both had different opinions on what the job entailed, seems all of us that thought he was working up to be chief exec when gary retires were wrong and he did want to be more involved in the on field stuff?

That’s my take on it too. From a cost perspective, he’d have demanded a big wage, but so would a head coach. Not sure 2 large salaries in the coaching department is either justifiable or practical at the current time.

Hmm strange one. I was told by someone who knows him well he really didn’t enjoy the coaching role.. must have had a change of heart. Well, I’m gutted he’s leaving our club he’ll have been offered big money no doubt too. Wonder if we’ll bring someone in the role?

Agar to move up to DoR and a new head coach?

I'm more sorry that this will be a coup for RU over our sport

Yep, strange but im not overly worried about him leaving the club its a bigger loss to RL in general IMO

Exactly RU will promote this as a step up for Sinfield. It will also be interesting to see which direction the club goes now as to wether they will retain the role of DOR ?
