Not worse, just not significantly better.

If we’re bringing in a new coach let’s bring in completely new perspectives. Not the same voices that haven’t been working. Usually when things aren’t working and the current coaches can’t work out why you need fresh minds in.
four premierships at the helm of the Leeds Rhinos, is one of the most successful coaches in Super League history. World Club championship, Challenge Cups, Special Forces career .In my opinion there's not anyone available better qualified than this man.

We've all read the pre-season stories about the army camps the players do for a few days? Those camps are nothing, and only an entre into what real training is. This guy was hardcore for a living. I'd back him to be one of the best coaches in the competition any day.

Rochow was alright for a few years. Paul Marquet’s 2nd stint was good too.
Didn’t Rochow start with us then go to Melbourne? Or I could be remembering it wrong. What happened to him anyway? I seem to remember he played some bloody good games at times. Maybe wasn’t super consistent but that could be said about most of our players from that era.

Does anyone remember Dustin Cooper? We got him from the Storm didn’t we? I remember him being pretty good but getting injured a lot (like basically every player who’s played for us in the last 20 years)

Yeah he was from Maitland and played SG Ball with us then went down to Melbourne for a few years. Played NYC and got a few FG games.

2013 was his best year. One of our most consistent players. 2014 was solid and then got a serious back injury in 2015 and was never the same player. Went to Souths and the Tigers and struggled at both.

He’s a good interim while we work through candidates. The idea that we require an immediate “better alternative” to warrant a change is crazy.
