Looking to Leave

Fair play


It must be hard to drop down a position once you have been a head coach somewhere

So let's look at a possible outcome of this. Jimmy leaves at the end of 2013 to take over the reigns at either Cas, London or Salford. Brian Mac takes up the England reigns after winning his third successive Grand Final and Steve McBanana gets the flick after a dismal World Cup campaign. Leeds head coachhing role is taken up by present Worlds best player incumbent with recently retired Jamie Peacock as his number two. Leeds begin yet another golden era of Super League dominance. So good that even Red Hall couldv'e engineered it. Watch this space!

What a load of crap you spoute


Idiot

Sounds good to me.

Mcdermotts contract ends at end of 2013 season...

Who has the worst record of a coach in Super League, I think it could be James Lowes his record at Warrington was terrible. The last thing this Leeds side needs is Mr Lowes, I would be very happy if he went back to the council tip at Bradford. Wire fans I know say he was the worst coach they ever had

They did have an absolutely appalling coach before Lowes who presided over the biggest dtinking club and had the audacity to say leeds can't work hard.well Sir kev put him in his place in 2011 at OT

Wouldn't be heart broken if Lowes left. I know many inside the game rate him but, for several reasons, I just don't like the bloke.

As has been mentioned JP will have probably ended his playing career by the end of this year - I'd be more than happy to see him slip into a coaching role at Leeds.

Think lee st hilaire.

What makes anyone think that either Sinfield or Peacock want to move into coaching?

Sinfield himself has expressed a desire to move into administration when he finishes playing, and Peacock already has his own motivational speaking business going in anticipation of his retirement.

Of the current playing group, it's the likes of Burrow and JJB who are showing more inclination at this stage towards a future in coaching.

Also, why would the current coach want to leave when there's an outstanding crop of youngsters waiting to burst onto the superleague scene presaging a further decade of success?

I reckon Brian Mac will be around for a little while yet. When he does go, as all coaches do in the end, I think it might come a bit soon for the current players.

In the end, the most likely candidate from the current players to become head coach of Leeds looks like being JJB.

I thought we were talking about Jimmy Lowes i.e. assistant coach?

Lowes seems a great assistant, not sure about as a head coach - maybe the wrong person, maybe last time was too soon.

JJB+Burrow+McGuire

Dream team.

I wonder what influence James Lowes in his role has on the team. That I may never know. But I hope its not much to be honest.

I reckon Lowes is a good coach on the training pitch. Man management etc. is a totally different world.

I'd like to see Lowes stay as McDermott's 'man in the tracksuit'. The combo seems to work reasonably well.

Could see JJB moving into coaching or even media work.

To do that he needs to work on his diction.

I believe he has quite interesting man management skills, it alleged he got into fight with Ben Cross, and Mr Cross knocked him out. It is alleged.

He's moved on from offering fans outside then?

how many times has this happened ?

tbh i thought the title was going to be wants another crack at fans

From reported tales of his Xmas drinking sessions in Leeds - no.

If there was ever a player who has 'great coach' tag waiting for him it's Sinfield. If there were ever 3 players who ever had 'never a coach in a million years' tag it would be Dave Plange, the other Tony Smith & Lowes.
