What does the article say? It's behind a pay wall.

I wonder if by the end of the RU season the magic of watching 3 minute scrums, line outs and rolling mauls will have worn off and Sir Kevin will be fancying a return ?

I keep hearing this demand for Sinfield to return to the club.
But what has he done to show his coaching credentials let alone his recruitment and retention prowess ?
Most of what we are in now is down to Sinfield.
Move on from any connection with the club and get us moved into the real world.

I’m not demanding it. I think a new, fresh approach is the better way to go. Murray, Smith, McLennan and Brian McD as asst had never been at Leeds before. I think only looking at “Leeds” men narrows your choice far too much.

Just wondering if it could happen. When he first came back he said he did not want to coach but maybe he would now he’s found out how dull admin /office work can be. I could have told him that

I was thinking about what GH said, and I think its OK actually. He has to give JJB public support even if he intends to get a coach from outside. Otherwise JJB couldn't function and the players would have carte blanche to take the mick until a permanent appointment is made.

Kev could be available but we cant keep going back to him everytime we are in schtuck. Its time for fresh ideas and faces.

Carr is inexperienced for the Leeds job but is better than most on the list of potential candidates which looks very low calibre really.

But i suspect the club are still weighing up options and availabilities.

Hopefully. The club clearly won't have foreseen what a s***show the season was going to morph into. Unless it's very lucky in so far as a top man's immediately available then I suspect GH's blank sheet of paper is probably exactly that right now.

Sinfield had zero impact the last time he took the reigns.. we were still awful.

I'd be happy with Carr, he'd be a very good choice imo. Knows the club, the game over here and the area already plus he's highly regarded by players and fellow coaches. Very smart appointment if it's true.

Leeds have a list of four, they’ve offered the role to their number one, who is Australian based (don’t know who it is), but if they don’t land him, they’ll go to Ryan Carr. Michael Monaghan is also on the list.
