Former Leeds stars endorse credentials of ex-Bradford coach as Rhinos continue hunt for new coach

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.
