Best news we've had in a while.



As somebody predicted, I'm pleasantly surprised.

I think that's a fair point.

He does have the standing in the game and the authority to tell them to let him get on with it. Hopefully it will shut Hudgel's mouth regarding team matters, or at least smoke him out.

I guess he'll walk away if they do. I doubt peacock will have any involvement with coaching when sheens takes over

He's not supposed to now

You must be over 80 then.

No but he said on the SL show a while back he'd had to start getting involved in the training sessions

I'd have thought most of the players are involved in the training sessions.

A good appointment in my opinion. It will be interesting to see who he rates and therefore retains and who he considers to be dead wood and shipped out. And then who he brings in of course.

Was talking to a former scrum half of kr yesterday teatime, he reckons koolcash is interested in the club.

New fullback.2 x big 2nd row.1x old fashioned nasty prop.new 7 if Kelly definitely gone..backup hooker maybe another winger if sio going as rumoured. .think its easier to say who he would keep as so much mediocrity particularly in pack.

What are these nasty props people go on about? I wouldn't have said any of the current top 4 have props who would be classed as "nasty". Plenty of hard hitting, hard grafting ones but there is no nastiness/foul play any more like there used to be

Simms and Flower are pretty nasty pieces of work.

Ryan Bailey

im amazed at the timing of this announcement when its quite feasable kr could play salford in the MPG where does his loyalties lie then

I think I read that if that it the case, he will stand down from his Salford position at that point

Very professional of him, should stay with the job he's getting paid to do, your ex scrum half said this appointment should have been kept behind locked doors till season was over, it's crept out from the Salford camp.

Koukash decided to announce it on Twitter so we had to confirm it I can't see him having anything else to do with Salford now to be honest his position must be untenable

simms is a fanny who has been owned by every one of our props this season. flower I'll give you but it was only once and he'll never do anything again

Pantomime villain

Probably where they lay the other week when rovers got that surprise win at their place

I meant aggressiveness and giving every tackle and hit up everything they have.we have been too 'nice' a team for few season.soft in defence up middle and on edges.make no mistake Leigh bullied us last week.hansen Patterson did exactly what ellis n chello have done to our pack last 5 derbies.walker allgood tilse green are all capable props but only green and allgood show real fire once or twice a season which normally sees a card produced.need smart niggly hard men who teams know they won't turn over and have belly tickled.mcdermott or mills (senior) types.

The timing of the announcment is not our doing. Koukash forced the issue.



Regardless of his loyalties, our players now know. They also know they need to up their game otherwise Sheens will get rid. THAT is the boost that might us get over the line. Ignore Salford and the MPG, get the three wins and we're back in SL.

You can't just get rid of contracted players without paying them off though

We have with Kelly

You can if both party's agree
