| Impressed with him if im honest but i knew i would be. His dad was something else and we all know his uncle isnt too bad either.
He will need time and he will need luck. Like i said yesterday it may or not work out but at least theres a decent chance it will.

Good luck to the guy, I just hope the club back him to bring in and let go who he wants in the next few years.'"
Thought he handled the question of criticism from fans for being too inexperienced well too

It's obvious that he's really hungry for this. It's not just another
job for him, it's a golden opportunity. Remember when Tony took charge he used to be out on the pitch watching the warm up. He really wanted it. Get the same vibe from Rohan.

Rohan has every chance of succeeding. We are rock bottom and we will automatically see some improvement as our best players return from injury. Our expectations are also at rock bottom and think most of us will be patient and just look for small improvements each season. Could be 4-5 years before we’re challenging again, but I think if we get some stability with Rohan we’ll get there in the end…..

| Certainly a more interesting appointment than a McNamara, a Radford or a Wane. I get the impression he has more ambition than merely steadying the ship, making us competitive or winning the arm wrestle.

| Quote ="exiledrhino"I was impressed in some ways, and surprised in others. Enjoyed hearing some of his coaching philosophies, thinking about the future, player development etc.
Slightly concerned he's only seen a few of our games this year. If I was either in the recruitment process (GH) or the prospective coach, I'd have wanted to watch every minute of every game, have a full breakdown of every player on the roster etc. He was very much like, let's see what it's like when I get there.
He's got an enforced period where he can't get hands on with the coaching. He should be spending every waking minute preparing, which it didn't seem he had been.
Maybe I'm being a bit too negative, but it definitely stood out to me.'"
If he had seen all the games he might not have taken the job!
He has plenty of time to watch all games from this year and indeed last year before he actually arrives in the flesh.His Uncle will also be able to give him plenty of feedback. As long as he doesnt take everything JJB says as gosprl!

JJB and gospel. That has a certain ring to it. He might send JJB on a pilgrimage to Outer Mongolia after a few months…!

Why does it need to be 4 or 5 years? We can challenge next season if current players are made better, young players developed and the right recruitment made. People seem obsessed with making it into a massive big project thing. We'd have been challenging a few years back if we just made smart decisions.
10-year project.
15 years before we can challenge, but as long as there are small improvements I'm happy.

| A club with the resources of Leeds should able to be turned around in 2 years max. Cleaning up the contracts and salary cap will take longest, and that’s entirely self inflicted.

2 years at most. No reason why we can’t challenge next season for top 4 with the right recruitment and coaching

We’ll maybe your right. I just look at our squad and it’s like an amateur team compared to Saints Roster. That big a gap!

| Don`t forget next year will be our 7th year of rebuilding and like others have said that should not be acceptable to a club like Leeds.
Some serious mis management has gone on here with coaching and player recruitment.
But we will go again to year 7 and see what happens.

This is the biggest frustration for me. Every year has felt like the same.
Knowing what needs to happen ,but not doing it. Signing players that aren't good enough,losing players that were.

Agree Chapylad. The recruitment has been beyond woeful. But in mitigation let's not forget we have rebuilt the stadium which is easily the best in RL. Plus there has been a pandemic.
Here's thought...perhaps the crucial mistake was putting Sinfield - a bloke with zero admin or organisational development experience - in such and crucial role so early in his post playing career.

I don't think we're that far off squad wise. With the number of out of contract players atvthe end of season, it gives us some room to add some more quality. The biggest thing for me has been how poorly coached we look. No structure in attack, shocking discipline. These are things that can be improved over the course of this year and next season. We haven't had much luck with injuries, but you tend not to when you're playing poorly and getting battered in attack and defence

Hmmm, you rate the playing squad much higher than I do. I said this before the season even started. But let’s see. If Rohan gets them winning regularly I’ll stand corrected …..

| This team can definitely play better than it has.
A new coach and getting players back from injury and suspension will help but we have to stop picking up stupid bans.
We also need to start playing with some structure, heart and skill.
Can't just panic pass or hope Dwyer does something from running at the ruck

We have a very low chance of success with Dwyer playing 80 mins as the halves cannot play without decent ball…..

Toulouse are there for the taking,like Cas were. Can we actually capitalise off their mistakes / poor play

Start of the year, the majority on here were talking up our chances of top 4 and putting in some good performances. After the Warrington game, that was still the feeling but it all came crashing down. Saints saw it when Holbrook took over and took the players to another level. A few high quality signings to replace our plodders, more structure and better coaching, and it would be a big transformation

Holbrook brought Barber on and that’s when the changes a accelerated. We’ll Zak be our catalyst?

Yeah, they were lucky to be able to get a player like him at the time. But it shows the difference a quality signing can make under the right coach. Hopefully Rohan can use the rest of this season to ID who he needs. Quality over quantity

You won’t find players like Barber I’m afraid. That was freak signing and they struck gold really……
