Rohan Smith took control of the first team training session as normal this morning, I've been told Paul Rowley however has been contacted regarding the head coaches position and that Rowley has been in contact with his former players Brodie Croft & Andy Ackers over the last week or so. Everyone knows Rohan is pretty much gone it's just a matter of time with the next game being dedicated to Rob Burrow and MND awareness it could maybe keep Rohan Smith in place until after this game and going into the international break the week after we could have a new coach at the helm whether it's Rowley or someone else only time will tell.

If RS is still in charge and Fridays performance is anything like that on Saturday then the atmosphere will turn. If RS is on borrowed time it makes little sense to keep him across next weekend. Of course, a repeat of Saturday will, or should, also turn the spotlight onto the players too.

Thanks for the update. Hope this happens ASAP.

I hope so too.
He is one coach I would not want at HQ and don`t think for one minute he will get too much out of our current squad.

With plenty of financial clout thrown at the squad.

I would find it very difficult to go and watch Leeds with McNamara in charge.

McNamara wouldn't be any kind of statement either. Rowley would, at least internally, because players would know he'd have the backing of Blease. But if we're going to make a change we need to try and get the absolute best we can. If that's Rowley then fine, but I'd at least talk to Arthur and test the waters around the NRL for other potential coaches as well, because we cannot afford to screw this up again. If we get it wrong we'll be having these same arguments in two years.

Must have been a historic occasion as it does not look like he has ever done this before.

If those fans can’t control themselves for one game dedicated to Rob then I despair.
