1 year at Leeds, 2 major finals. Meanwhile Tony Smith this year, 0 finals. I always said we should have given Agar more time.

Wasnt there more sack McDermott threads than sack Agar ones this year too

One word. Sinfield.

Doubt that karl

They all boo'd when his face came on the big screen at headingley when we were there

All?

He is Mr Leeds.

Eh? Surely he'd mr sinfield or has he changed his name by deed poll?

Difference being that we had given Agar plenty of time before the Agar out stuff started. Poor old Mcdermot is in his first season with an aging squad and they got on his back.

They will all be back if they lose in the final.

One of the nicest, most dedicated men I have met in the game.

Whilst at Quins he would spend time at junior games helping out, giving advice etc without even getting invited down.

He felt it was all part of his job to help develop the game down there.

Whilst at Leeds he has asked his players for one thing....to ignore what they are hearing from outside and believe that they can get things right.

It seems they have listened and have built up some form at just the right time of the season.

Sorry but another i told you so moment from me. I said i always rated him and he was best british coach in SL and id like him at Hull

I didn't really rate McDermott. I never expected Leeds to get to the GrandFinal with him in charge.
