iffleyox Posted June 8 Report Share Posted June 8 1 hour ago, M j M said: This would make more sense if he was moving in an admin role rather than the suggested coaching position he's been linked to. disagree actually - he's being linked with a coaching role, so he can do some coaching. Which, again, will give him experience of another pro club's methods. Let's be honest, he didn't get that at Leeds RU, and potentially an insight into their off-pitch stuff while he's there. So when he comes back to Leeds he's got more experience of the on and off-pitch stuff somewhere else. So, on and off the pitch he'll have more experience of what he's looking at, or at least different perspectives on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, anyone who has worked with him has said how his understanding of the sport is immense. Indeed there was a certain attitude that assistant coach was his ideal role. He probably is very impressive in an interview. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fieldofclothofgold Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 The club will be hit financially by the pandemic they have the stadium to pay for and were investing heavily on the corporate side which has hardly been used .

A somewhat weird view of the world; union has more money than League, that was always going to be the case once union went pro. Drawing up a sort of straw man argument that because union has more money than League then League is somehow a failure is baffling to me. Moreover it's pretty likely to me that Sinfield isn't leaving for the money, if he's leaving. Possibly for the opportunity for more money down the line if he makes a success of it - but then money has never been a big motivator for him anyway. Most likely is that after three years in the role he just wants to do something new. He is a loss as a name I suppose but as a Director of Rugby his performance has been mixed at best.

Johnoco Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 If this turns out to be true, I’m sure it’s absolutely nothing to worry about. The very few high profile RL people, leaving the game for union is just something to be shunted to the cross code section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe GH will do the job till end of season. Although a new man will want to implement his own signings. That's if the club can afford a new DOR in the present climate 1 Soon we will be dancing the fandangoFROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB HAS DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESSTHEN i DONT KNOW WHAT IS.JAMIE PEACOCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
