Quote: Slugger McBatt "I think Hull KR will struggle. Their new coach doesn't come with a great coaching CV, with assistant coach jobs at four clubs in four years, with his second stint ending with a fight in a pub with another member of staff.
Good assistants are retained. Three clubs released him after just one year, one after the other, and the fourth club he was at, Newcastle, have been poor since he joined in 2020. That doesn't scream out "well-regarded assistant coach". It screams out "nah, not for us".
Their squad is okay, but not good enough to withstand a poor coach.'"
Yeah, we really struggled today…
