And his big brother played for us!

And his big brother played for us!

Really surprised by this

Surely something has gone on that we are not party to

Hope we don’t see another good English coach go over to the dark side .
Whatever you think about Wayne and McDermott ,they are on the top of their game.
I’m not a fan of his sometimes arrogant personality myself but he would be another big loss to Rl if he takes his ball n bat Home and goes to union .

Players like Sinfield, Maguire and Burrow don't come around very often, and the latter two were part of their own academy. I think they were fortunate that they were around at the same time.

None of their more recent pool of home grown players have lived up to their standard, so they need to look beyond their own academy.

Unfortunately for Leeds, this hasn't happened which surprised me.

Wonder if with all the recent developments of the stadium, as to whether they have had to kerb their spending on players.

With this and their injury plight, he's had a tough and thankless job really since winning the treble. That said about their injuries, he was quite harsh on us in 2015, when we were struggling.

Who'd be a coach

I know the betting odds are out but who would be shocked by Jamie Peacock?

A long, successful career and spent the last few years in the set up at the Rovers as the Head of Rugby.

No real coaching experience at a high level. Head of Rugby doesn't neccessarily mean he's a coach.

I agree completely, there are better candidates out there however spending the last few years under Sheens will have done a lot for JP.

David Furner is being mentioned over here - currently ass coach with the rabbits

JD has been mentioned to.

Powell has said in an interview Leeds haven't approached him and if they did he isn't interested as he has unfinished business at Cas

They'd be foolish to go for Peacock.
Same with Sinfield.
Bring them in as management if you like but not coach.
It's a top job. Needs experience.

Furner is my bet. I hope it isn't JD.

Knowing Hetherington he’ll already have someone lined up to step in at the club before he gave big Brian the chop.
Don’t think they’ll go too many games rudderless ,especially with the big split looming .
Likes been said earlier let’s hope they don’t get their act together before we play them .

He isn't working under Sheens
He is business management not assistant coach.

that's being a little selfish, JD deserves a chance of a good position as much as anyone else

Yes, it's a bit of a poisoned chalice at the moment. If McD can get fired following Leeds recent success what chance has the next incumbent.

I'm pretty sure my hoping won't actually impact his chances and I'm also pretty confident he'll have a great coaching career whether he applies or not.
