mcdermott? I'd rather give macnamara a 5 year contract than have mcdermott anywhere near the coaching position at my club. He's being well and truly found out now sinfield is gone

Are you saying Sinfield coached leeds for the decade then

I'm saying mcdermott is a poor coach who had an exceptional group of players led by the stand out player of recent years. He'd found his level at larndan

And coincidentally you chose now to break your silence on the subject? Can't say I'm shocked.

I doubt it Brian Mac or McBanana. Likely to be an Aussie. Wouldn't suprise me if Webbo go the job full time if he miraculously turns things around, but that's doubtful.

I've said it many times in the past but I don't really have much interest in leeds so it's hardly been a hot topic for me.

No interest in Leeds, Hull KR on the other hand...

Peacock categorically stated that Webster will be the coach for this season only. I can't see beyond McNamara and I think he will be a good appointment.

Sinfield himself said he has no interest in coaching but without knowing it has become the worlds most successful coach

Yes, its a pity you couldn't get him instead of Peacock.

Why? What would Sinfield bring to a management team that Peacock hasn't?

There seem to be an obsession among some of the darkside that Peacock coming in has destabilised the team, or has put noses out of joint. If it has then good, thats what was needed, this season has been coming for a while and getting the foundations right is paramount over instant results. There is a big rebuilding job to be done and it wont be done overnight. Peacock is not to 'blame' for our current position and what he is doing (or not) wont be seen for a year or 2. I've yet to see any management change that gives instant success, so I'll judge him a year or so time not now.

Regardless of how well Wakey are doing (short term) removing Chester was the right move, long term he wasn't the right man. I'll add to that that medium term neither is Webster, he'll do for this year but needs someone to lay down foundations then an inexperienced assistant coach (Webster) can take over

If you go over to the dark side forum they seem to know everything about rovers and JP even down to him upsetting the RFL, I'm the same as you if we are going to get beat 40-0 at home why shouldn't J,P put a few noses out of joint?
The guy is 4 months into a new role and i have no doubt at all he will turn us around with in 3 years

This was not a slur on Peacock's management team and more an opinion on the coaching ability of Sinfield.

Who said Sinfield has any coaching ability I was just stating about what jake said that McDermott is rubbish now that Sinfield has gone implying it was all down to him leeds success

Nothing demonstrates lack of interest like making repeated posts on the subject.

Has rovers said they have the coach signed up or have they got a agreement but can not say anything till the end of the season

Wrong board

Hence my reason for posting my opinion of mcdermott. Keep up dum dum

Who said sinfield was coaching the team? he was the leader of the group and obviously one of the key differences for anyone with any knowledge whatsoever of the game. No coincidence that sinfield was club captain through the most successful period in leeds' history and one which saw 3 different coaches in charge when they won grand finals. I guess all 3 could be brilliant coaches or maybe sinfield was a major part of it. Either way, they were pretty useless pre sinfield and aren't looking too clever post sinfield. if you want to believe that mcdermott is a coaching guru then bully for you

Not all but the major part IMO

You've missed a couple, get it sorted or I'll be looking for another gimp
