Especially if they're expecting to play as well.

If Rohan's gone then that's surely any chance of Chisholm staying gone. I'd think whoever they get in, losing Rohan will feel like another kick in the balls for the remaining playing staff

Thing I don't like is we are into yet another rebuilding period,
Squad and coaching staff let just hope these guys make the right decisions.

But has we have learned very recently Bradford playing legends don't make Bradford coaching legends.

Quote: Bullseye "
Quote: Bullseye "Also do you think Rohan actually achieved last year or not??'"


Really hard to judge given he took over a side that was playing the worst rugby I'd seen in 30 years, had money worries and players wanting away.

In that sort of situation it'd be difficult for any coach. In the minus column are the losses to Fev and Workington. In the plus column is that we looked better organised once we got some halfbacks and he was able to attract much better players to the club (Chisholm, Moss etc).

We'll never know now but I have a feeling he'll crop up again somewhere and we'll miss him.'"


Well summarised as usual Bullseye. I think Rohan had great potential and losing him is yet another blow.
The prospect of Leon taking on Head Coach responsibility causes me concern after the Lowes experience - and Jimmy at least had been in coaching for some time before he came to the Bulls. It would be a massive ask.

Personally think he had us playing some good stuff at times, and was excited to see us after a full pre season of his. About Henry how long has he been away from rugby league? Could he be a bit out of touch and risky. Look what happened last great player who coached us...........

AS far as coaching went I felt the jury was still out for Rohan. He has been brilliant during this Administration and he also brought in some good players. My problem was his inability to get a performance out of the team against Fev

Yes, I'm in the 'Jury was still out' group when it came to Rohan. His record last season wasn't actually at that great when you examine it, and as for the Featherstone game... well... icon_eek.gif

That said, he's been an absolute diamond during this last few months, and deserves everyones thanks and total respect

Still don't really fancy Leon 'I coached at Queensbury Under 8s' Pryce as our next Head Coach

They probably feel getting a Bulls icon may help to keep the fans. Longterm I do not see that unless they fall very very lucky.

I agree that might be a temptation like it was with green and Lowes, but Unless the Bulls icon has an established and respected coaching career im not interested. We've learnt thus lesson already. If we're not going with Rohan we need experience for what will be a really tough season, keeping the fans won't happen if a rookie coach keeps getting taught a lesson each week by Dewsbury and Oldham.

Was really looking forward to seeing how Rohan did wirh a full season regardless who we had lost.

Feel.its such a shame, almost criminal

They won't get anybody with the experience of high class modern systems and the contacts that Rohan Smith has.

However, they might just be better off with somebody that can get in and just motivate them to play hard.

It would be interesting to know what points they disagreed on.

Given the close proximity to the start of the season, and the fact that this season is probably a write-off anyway, what did they have to lose by taking him on and giving him a chance? he already knew the players (those that remain) so is one step ahead compared to any new coach coming in.
