Not sure we can quite compete with that role, or to be honest the country at present...RagingBull wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 10:32 amall Blacks stillWayne Richardson Fan Club wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 10:31 amAnyone know where Jamie Hamilton formerly of this parish is these days?RagingBull wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 10:23 am Simon Barbour confirmed off
Joining Loughborough as Performance analysts lead.
My only worry with all these changes is we end up with all yes men in the coaching team, yes you want to be all singing off the same hymn sheet but you need the you need a selection of different voices to make a good choir.....
Suggest Deacon will cover Defence, for me Sinfield looks a bit of a punt.
Odds on George stopping longer term have to be considerably lower now.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

It states "ahead of the 2021/22 season"
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

So Yorkshire say at the end of the season and we say before next season, who's right?

Kevin Sinfield and Alex Walters do not strike me at all as yes men.

Very excited by Sinfield in a defence role. The guy is a proven winner and if nothing else should add to our teams mental toughness.
Will we see an attack coach appointment today?
On Simon Barbour it says he's taken a head analyst role at Loughborough - good for him. Think it's notable that Andrea Pinchen has tweeted her thanks to both him and Mike Ford trying to highlight these moves were amicable.

It's all happened so we need to suck it all in and allow them to get on with it.
Sinfield is a man to admire in many different ways and SB seems to have made a lot of good calls so far. Let's hope this is another one

From Mike Ford POV
He came here with his reputation a bit battered IMO.
And is leaving IMO with it restored in some way.
I still think Craig was the most at fault for Baths problems.

So Leeds say at the end of their season which ends on the 17th of September, we say "ahead of the 2021/22 season" which starts on.... the 17th of September. Not sure how that works
