Also have we ever been coached by members of the same family? Brian and Tony Smith? Any more...

Well done to you by the way you flagged this departure up when a lot didn't believe you!

I was thinking about this earlier, can't be many who've coached both clubs?

Johnny Whiteley and Steve Crooks.

Thanks for your concern, but we are in a much better position with our squad and youth set up than when Smith joined Rovers.

Wonder how your NRL assistant will do, better hope he is no Sandercock.

His record must fill them with confidence

As assistant he barely stayed 2 years at one club and was sacked from Manly for allegedly getting into a fight with another member of the coaching staff

Could get interesting

Smith told Rugby League Live: “Would I be interested in talking to Hull FC? Absolutely. Whether or not they want me is a different story, but let’s see". https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/tony-smith-hull-fc-interest-7550059

Yes, I'm sure Adam Pearson will take note of your advice.

He needs to take advice from somebody. His decisions over the last few years have been way off and he is totally responsible for your present situation.

Probably not anonymous Rovers supporters on RLFans though.

Slighty longer version of the Tony Smith interview "It's a huge club and I'd certainly be willing to talk to them. I'm a rugby league coach who isn't coaching a rugby league team at the moment. The fact my brother coach there many years ago isn't lost on me either," said Tony Smith. "I went to the Boulevard and watched my brother coach and bring them back to some glory days back in those days". https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/exclusive-ex-hull-kr-boss-tony-smith-issues-come-and-get-me-plea-to-hull-fc-3832336

Bound to get one right eventually

I was gutted about Brett, after being one of his biggest supporters even I could see it wasn't working. The Wakey game at home drew parallels to the game when Radders lost his job.

Never nice to see anyone lose their job, especially with the way the world is atm

I can see your point. He’s had masses of advice from anonymous FC supporters. He’s probably having trouble sorting the wood from the trees.
