Richard Agar says he has no desire to return to rugby league as head coach any time soon – but admits that could change in the future. Agar stepped down as Leeds Rhinos boss in March following a disastrous start to the season, bringing to an end his near three-year reign.
It remains to be seen if the 50-year-old Yorkshireman will return to Headingley in a different capacity but he will form part of Samoa’s coaching staff at the World Cup this autumn. Beyond that, Agar says he is keeping his options open after recharging his batteries during a family holiday in America and a trip to Australia to watch a number of NRL games.
Agar, speaking to BBC Radio Leeds, said: “I went on holiday and had about a month away [after leaving Leeds]. I thought sat on my hands in my house, feeling the way I felt, was probably not the wisest thing to do.
