Quote: DGM "I don't think giving him a position based on sentiment is a sensible way to go. He should be taken on because he has the right character & professionalism and is ultimately good at what he does & will improve the current setup. I've seen nothing in his coaching career to suggest he's any of those things.'"
Nothing to do with sentiment, my comments were about his motivation.
Leigh, in the championship and middle 8 of 2016 were sensational in attack. Given they were going to be one of the weaker teams in SL, its harsh to judge Cooke on 2017.
