What does that mean?

| Peter Gentle ticks a few boxes so good luck to Hull.
Whether he can be a success at Hull I wouldn't know and neither do any Hull fans. And to be fair the same will apply to whoever gets the Rovers job.
Peter Sharp ticked a few boxes but his after match analysis made Richard Agar seem like Shakespeare. 'Aw we was a bag' o rubbish mate'.
Very inspirational.
Who knows what flaws will be revealed as we get to know Gentle and Wrigley/ Moore/ Cameron a bit more intimately.
But you've got to appoint someone and personally I prefer the way Rovers have gone about it.
Rovers have sought out as much professional advice as possible and from very respected figures still involved very very closely with the NRL. The selection process is quite meticulous even involving the kind of management assessment techniques used in industry. At the end of this each candidate will have no less than a half day interview in which to discuss not just first team matters but youth development, public relations, player discipline, sports science, etc etc.
For Hull it was 'who do you fancy Shaun?' 'Hmmmm...that Gentle fella seems to be in demand'.
In the end it is the subjective judgement of the HKR management team and it is the subjective judgement of Shaun McRae and they could both get it right or wrong but I believe Rovers have left no stone unturned whereas (just my opinion) McRae is someone who should have joined the SKY TV team because that is the only area he has seemed comfortable in for a number of years.
But I must say his new job does seem a very cushy number. I predict that if/when Gentle doesn't cut the mustard McRae will be the hero who sacks him. Good on yer Shaun wish you'd been around to sack Agar. Bit like Simms at Salford.

 Who sent you the tape, Bob?
Every Rovers fan I spoke to before Gentle was confirmed at Hull was hoping for him. Ah well.
