Potential Appointment of Paul Rowley as Hull FC Head Coach: Sky Sports Report

Hull FC are in the midst of a coaching shakeup, with Brian Carney reporting that the club has set its sights on Paul Rowley to take over as head coach. The Black and Whites are looking for a permanent solution following the departure of Tony Smith last week, with Simon Grix currently serving as interim coach.

New Director of Rugby Richie Myler has confirmed that Grix will remain in charge until the end of the season, but Rowley is reportedly one of the top candidates for the job. With experience at Salford Red Devils, Leigh, and Toronto Wolfpack, Rowley is considered one of the brightest coaches in the game.

Speaking ahead of Hull’s recent defeat to St Helens, Carney speculated on the potential appointment of Rowley, noting his success with limited resources at Salford. Former player Jon Wilkin also praised Rowley, calling him a ‘genius’ and highlighting his ability to maximize squad potential.

Hull FC is keeping their search for a new head coach under wraps, with Myler and club owner Adam Pearson emphasizing a quick decision. The club is reportedly looking for a British coach with Super League experience to bring stability to the team.

As Hull FC navigates their coaching transition, fans are eager to see who will take the helm and lead the team to success in the future. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
