Hope Lowes takes his club's participation in the MPG in better spirit than he did in his last one.

Sinfield's interview says he has final say on team selection so to me that is head coach.
I think that is a mistake for someone with hardly any experience.

You watch em beat Cas on Sunday now...

I thought the same when the announcement was made. "Sinfield will be IN CHARGE" of his first game on Sunday.
I would imagine he will have the final say on selection and on final match day tactics and probably team talks before the game and at half time. You would think that Lowes must have been aware of this and agreed to it.
Very noticable that Jordan Lilley has been brought straight back in the squad as thats what a lot of Rhino's fans were calling for under McD.
Will be interesting to see who gives the after match interview after their first sky game under Sir Kev.

bringing Lilley back will either make or break him. I personally don't see any quality in him at the high level

this fixation of calling sinfield sir on the leeds board is an insult to them that have been given this honour, while I can respect his great playing career and he has been honoured a MBE not a knighthood, this could go all quite sour for his image if the team don't perform for him

I agree. A few bad decisions made but the worst one is by Sinfield. He needed a better job title or stay away until the ship is sailing again.

Eddy was already creaming over Sir Kev during the game last night

It will take time to see what true impact they have, but they might have a short term effect, which they need & probably against us. Looking forward it sounds like Sinfield has a lot of responsibility which may dilute his impact, he can’t do everything.

As long as the ref stays away from the dug outs shouldn’t be a problem but I pity the 4th official

I know mate we could think of thousands of other examples. E.G. Sir Rodney Walker and Sir Jimmy Saville.

The cynic in me says Shinfield will be calling the shots and Lowes will be fall guy if it all goes wrong.

Spot on ..... plus has Sinfield got the necessary coaching badge to be a head coach ?? Don’t think he has , Lowes is there for that and to take the chop if need be !!

No he hasn’t and yes he is.

Indeed and he lost his head when he was at Warrington and moved from the dug out's on the Western Terrace into the stand.
A fantastic player and full of passion but, a huge backward step for Leeds.
