Very surprised at the timing. Thanks for everything Brian, good luck for the future.

Tony Smith in the interim?

His contract signed end of 2016, stipulated the club could sack immediately without compensation if he did not win 40% of any ten matches.

Far from a 'mutual' decision from the look of McD's comments in response. Suprised at the timing but, even allowing for the injuries, we've looked rudderless for a long time now.

It's been a magnificent reign with silverware all over the place & McD has always been a model of integrity but I agree with the idea of 'its time for a change'

Thank you Brian for ALL your work & the greatness you've driven the Rhinos to

All time great coach but his time had run it's course. Thanks for the trophies and memories Brian and all the best. The next appointment is huge

Has the stench of a “back me or sack me” episode. TBH I’m a bit shocked, it’s sad to see such a successful reign end in such circumstances, but Christ we have been poor this season.

Finally, some good news.

Brian McDermott commented, “I am extremely disappointed this has happened and obviously it is not a decision I agree with. I wish everyone at the club the best and my thoughts will be with the team on Sunday and through to the end of the season.”
