Hmm strange one. I was told by someone who knows him well he really didn’t enjoy the coaching role.. must have had a change of heart. Well, I’m gutted he’s leaving our club he’ll have been offered big money no doubt too. Wonder if we’ll bring someone in the role?

I'm more sorry that this will be a coup for RU over our sport

Exactly RU will promote this as a step up for Sinfield. It will also be interesting to see which direction the club goes now as to wether they will retain the role of DOR ?

Certainly looks like a bit of tension between KS and GH from the statement.

Not surprising really, the club has been under pressure on all fronts.

Definitely a loss but Kevin’s profile is high now and good luck to him in whatever he does. I just hope his son stays with the club and we don’t see yet another Owen Farrell/George Ford scenario.

I dont want to use the term " lame Du k " ,but decisions need to be made in planning for next season and Sinfield surely cant identify new signings when he wo t be here and the new man may have other ideas.That is if the club are retaing the DOR role

Yes could see that happening. Agar has very good contacts in Aus too for recruitment.

Agreed. It’s a huge blow to RL. His profile has never been as high. Big big blow to the game. I really fear for the future of RL in this country

A not particularly successful administrator is leaving his role. Let's not get unnecessarily - if not ridiculously - hyperbolic about things.
