Shocked and disappointed, difficult times ahead.

Honestly, I don't blame him.

He can't sit around and waste time hoping the season might start again in the new year.  I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get Championship rugby for a long time yet.  It's not as big an issue in Australia as it is over here, so (with respect) at his age I'd be heading back home too.  I'm sure he can get some kind of role back in Oz even if it's within coach mentorship, fair play to him.

Need to know the reason before reacting - it might be a personal/family problem for instance.

As I understood it he was keen to get his British citizenship as he quite liked it over here. Guessing the pandemic has changed his plans massively. Can't begrudge that, it's unusual times.

It seems (to me anyway) an odd time to go, with nowt happening on the park, nor likely to be till well into 2o21.

Has he been offered summat back home?

I can't see you rushing to appoint his successor with the resumption months away, so...……………..

Who'd you like to take over?

I don't think there'll be a shortage of applicants.

Spelly.

Why is it an odd time to go Spelly?  You've answered why it's a good time to go in the rest of the sentence?!  Could be well over a year until we get part time rugby back.

Disappointing but as previously said these are strange times with Covid 19 & there being no idea when rugby at our level will return.  I would hope he will make a statement on reasons as the club has stated it will make no further comment.

Anything but 'odd' in my view. Squad largely signed up with major forward signings, what's to do between now and after Christmas?

We have time, he's saved us cash and left a ready made squad to start whenever. Not a bad shot for anyone wanting to coach one of the stalwart clubs of the game. Just hope that the lads signed will stay on. The players haven't even been able to train this year but the 'old heads' are looking towards retirement anyway, so no great urgency to get up the ladder, they've already been there!

Chance for anyone ready for a coaching career to get a flyer.

Maybe a chance for Matty Smith to have a go in the Coaching roll if that is his aim in the sport.

I just find it odd that he's gone with nowt going on football wise.

Perhaps it's me being odd? Not for the first time I hear you mumble!

Spelly,

So what's the point in him hanging around then with nothing to do?

Huddersfield need a coach, maybe he'll go there until the end of the season then go home.
