We just need to get some hard running and durable forwards in and sort out the scrumhalf position and we should look loads better going forward

Chev is unfortunately part of the problem

Nice guy, rubbish coach

Hopefully Blease has got someone lined up already.

So I’ve been clear I haven’t wanted him as coach for a long time, that’s not a personal attack, I just didn’t think he was experienced enough and I didn’t buy into his ideas about the way the game should be played. The club have made the right move.

I wish him well, people says he’s a nice bloke and his contribution to the club statement seems to underline this. I hope he has success in the future, and that his life is a bit more peaceful now.

In hindsight, I don't think it did Smith any favours that we made the GF in his first season. Expectations (including my own) were raised too high after that.

Conversely I wonder if we had managed to win the first game against Saints this season whether the team would have had the confidence to kick on. Probably not, but things really dropped off after that peak performance.

I agree his position had become untenable, and his win-loss record sums that up (second worse after Furner, who admittedly was a lot worse than Smith). In a longer perspective Smith merely carried on the mediocrity of the Agar days, and we were looking for a Murray-style appointment. First few months aside, I don't think Smith had much luck at Leeds - and I'm not talking about silly things like the training ground flooding (the classic Mac era excuse). I think his spine signings will all be okay but failing to buy good forwards was a major undoing.

He also cleared out a lot of the players that many on here wanted rid of.

I think Hetherington needs to shoulder a lot of the blame here, Rohan’s remit was clearly far too big for a coach of his experience

Nobody wants to be sacked but I know his wife wanted to go back to Oz , so his wider life will be simpler now and it’s for the best.
