Only won them the grand final on numerous occasions and challenges cup

In 8 seasons with Leeds, Brian McDermott has got them 4 Grand Finals, 2 Challenge Cups, a World Club Challenge and a League Leaders Shield. Wonder where he will go next?

He should go to Toronto, an ideal man to establish some form of professional culture for them.

Is Wigan a possibility for him or are they having a punt on Edwards ?

I'll bet that signature bottom lip is really stuck out this morning. I'm sure he'll not be short of offers.

Leeds's loss, not sure what your supposed to do when half your players are out injured at different times for most of the season.

Focus has shifted to Ford apparently

re McDermoott, don't teams usually wait till Wakey beat them before sacking the coach?

Brian’s done a world class job at Leeds

Apart from injuries let’s remember that he’s had a raft of significant retirements in Sinfield, Leuluai, Burrow, Peacock, McGuires moved on and Hardaker imploded. They’ve also allowed JJB and Ablett to grow old without adequately replacing any of these players like for like.

He’s overseen the successful introduction of Walker, Oledski, Smith, Golding, Singleton, Handley, Lilley, Walters, Newman, Ward & Sutcliffe to name Just a few juniors.

Hes been a great coach and despite current form I can’t see the justification for his sacking.

He's certainly the best coach that they've had in the SL era and by some distance, they may never repeat the level of success that he has brought to the club.

Worlds gone mad fickle fan pressure you should be ashamed of yourself Mr Hetherington

With the exception of Walker and [umaybe[/u Singleton and Ward these guys just haven't been up to the standard of the previous "Batch" of academy graduates. Would Handley, Lilley and Walters get in any other Super League team?

Doesn't matter what he's done in the past, he's got a very different side to when he had most of his success and failing to recruit properly has stung them, the young lads they've brought through from the academy don't seem to be ready yet.
