What did McRae have to do with Genitals appointment, it was announced within a day of him being appointed so there can't have been much consultation done.

| Who knows how Peter Gentle will turn out?
For every Michael Maguire, there is a Dean Lance or John Harvey.
All I can say is that Gentle has been the beneficiary of some very astute PR from his UK representative David Howes (who had never even heard of Gentle six months ago!). Howesy did a very good job of circulating his client's name in revered tones when, by all accounts, he is not held in particularly high regard in his homeland!
Howes did particularly well to squeeze plenty of mileage out of Gentle being 'Australia's assistant coach'. The reality is that Tim Sheens simply turned to his trusty lieutenant when Royce Simmons stood down at short notice prior to last year's Four Nations. Gentle was actually one THREE assistants.
Darryl Powell and James Lowes are assistants to Steve McNamara. Does it really mean that much?
At Wests (who have largely underachieved in recent seasons), Gentle is regarded as a defensive coach. Prior to that, he was assistant coach at Cronulla during a dreadful two-year period in their history.
We know that he was interviewed for the Salford job earlier in the year but wasn't first choice. Kurt Wrigley was, only to turn the position down. Next we hear Matt Parish gets the gig when everyone was expecting Gentle. Was it really because 'Gentle couldn't committ to this year', or was that more Howes' spin?
Castleford interviewed Gentle for the coaching position weeks ago (along with Justin Morgan), but never actually went as far as offering him the job before Hull FC took the bait and swooped without interviewing any other candidate, just days after another of Howes' old muckers Shaun McRae landed up as Football Manager!
Has Howes simply exploited Adam Pearson's RL naivety? Or will it prove an inspired appointment?
Only time will tell.

Oh dear I have no doubt that was spelt like that purposely!

You think McRae hasn't been with Pearson since the week he bought the club? Really?

| As the song goes... we are Hull KR.
Some interesting points about Gentle (he's not earned the Genital backhanded compliment yet, IMO!), but for the FC forum.

You're welcome. I'd hardly class brainwashed in the same vein as inbreds and window lickers, would you?

Lets really hope so but the process was to involve Hudge, Smith and Crossland only with them comparing notes after each interview.., the "recommendations" and such like have been done earlier...

I hope this is incorrect. Player revolt is not a great line on any coach's cv.

Never trust an RL fan who dresses in such a fashion so as to resemble a humbug!

| Andy Wilson thinks it is Moore.
rlhttps://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2011/sep/19/hull-kr-kevin-moorerl
former NRL coach of the year, good win ratio, but as SirStan points out, rumblings about lack of communication and ultimately sacked. Still, we weren't going to get an NRL head coach who was in post.
Be interesting to see what he's got to say - first impressions and all that.
