Sorry to see that Graham has left Quins "for personal reasons". Always a concern for me when they say that - hope everything is OK for him. I did a speech day with him at Guthlaxton many year ago and found him to be a very likable man willing to talk about a wide range of topics.

Re: Rowntree leaves Quins
Pure speculation on my part, does he not get on with Paul Gustard? Their time as Tiger's players overlapped.
Re: Rowntree leaves Quins
No, I don’t think so. He lives around the area, he must be away from his family a lot of the time. I think it’s something to do with that in my opinion.Cagey Tiger wrote: ↑Fri Jun 15, 2018 4:31 pm Pure speculation on my part, does he not get on with Paul Gustard?

I've heard that Dorian West is interested in coming back to us too!

West?! Oh God please no!
Re: Rowntree leaves Quins
I think Rowntree might do well doing an academy role again at the club.

That might be his son Jack....
I would like Rowntree in some sort of a role with the club, very experienced been part of a coaching setup that has beaten the AB twice and drawn another. That being said not sure where he would fit in, i'm happy with Bakewell and Stanko with the forwards.
Re: Rowntree leaves Quins
Could it just be Graham dropping his son off and having a catch-up with a player that he coached for a very long time?

Re: Rowntree leaves Quins
Why would a coach who has been involved with a Premiership first team, England team and multiple Lions tours want to be an academy coach?
