After years of leadership, passion, and unforgettable moments in the red and white, we reflect on his legacy and what he’s meant to the club and its supporters.

We then look ahead to the next chapter as we welcome his successor, former Man of Steel winner and ex-Wakefield Trinity coach Luke Gale, who steps in to help guide the Robins into a new era.

There’s plenty happening on the recruitment front too, with the exciting arrival of promising second-rower Tom Whitehead from Warrington Wolves, plus the fantastic news that academy product Frankie Dearlove has committed his future to the club with a new two-year deal.
