I think JK has played a big part in Trinity's success on the field last year. It's a real shame that he isn't staying to finish the job off with CC and have a real crack at winning something in 2018.

Quality coach who IF given the backing would turn the Bulls slide around, at his age thought the director of rugby at a top 5 super league club would be ideal for him but obviously not.

Good luck to him..

Totally agree.
JK was held back once by us (Catalans) but rather than hold a grudge he came back in his present role and has been great for us again .
If he's going I wish him all the best he's been a top man for us.

Not sure anyone has said he owes us, or shouldn't be jumping ship.

I think the sentiment is, if you want to get back into frontline coaching, WHY, OH WHY, would it be with Basketcase Bulls?

Would love him even to stay but is the challenge of bringing them back from rock bottom to super league to big to miss for him, also heard from the 2019 season franchise I saw coming back and 14 teams

See if anything gets said at your Forum tonight?

Bulls website says they will be announcing there new head coach and assistant coach tomorrow at 3

May I suggest if you prefer surprises, keep off here for a while!

I wouldn't hold it against him but I hope he stays.

I think he will go he was offered an extension to his contract at 4pm today, but if it's true the Bulls are going to announce a coach tomorrow I think it'll be JK.

He was contracted for next year, so an extension on that I would presume from 2019 onwards. Personally, I really hope he stays and will be gutted if he goes. I think he was a big part of our success last season and I'd have thought he might want to continue the journey.

I hope you're right Shifty I agree with you , but we'll see tomorrow.

Confirmed 3 year deal, said lure of coaching such an iconic club was too much

also The potential at this place is absolutely immense. It's down to me to stabilise the club and improve and evolve in an upward direction."

I know the body is still warm but being mercenary for a moment - does that perhaps THIS leaves a bit of spare cash for say a certain young H/B

Well that's that. He's obviously got his reasons, highlighted in part by the post above but even with that I personally find it a bit strange. I said when it was first rumored I wondered whether his recent WC trip with Wales had got his Coaching juices flowing again and it seems to have.

Personally speaking, I think he'll be missed. Not quite sure exactly how hands-on he was with our first team (BLM may have a better idea from his son) so not sure how it will affect us playing wise, although CC will have no doubt learned a great deal from him during his time here and has developed into a good Coach himself. I wonder if we'll bother to replace him or just stay as we are.

According to the club website we are...



I'm sure there a few people on here who might fancy a go...
