Former Leeds Rhinos stars Chev Walker and Richie Mathers are among those who have endorsed the coaching credentials of former Bradford Bulls coach Rohan Smith as a potential successor to Richard Agar at Headingley.
Smith was the final coach of the Bulls before they ultimately went into liquidation in early-2017, but he earned plenty of admirers during his time in England with the former Super League side.
They include Walker - who is now the coach of Leeds' reserves side - and Mathers, both of whom were involved at the Bulls when Smith was present as head coach.
