Former Leeds Rhinos player and Castleford Tigers coach Danny Ward has outlined his reasons for joining their betfred Super League rivals Hull KR.
Ward masterminded London Broncos’ promotion to the top-flight five years ago and helped keep Tigers in the competition during a six-game spell as coach at the end of the 2023 season, but turned down the chance to stay on next term. He will work under Hull KR team boss Willie Peters, along with fellow assistants Dave Hodgson and Brett Delane and development coach Shaun Kenny-Dowall.
He said: “Our chats seemed to flow as we spoke about rugby, life and everything straight away. I’m all about working with good people, getting on and building relationships with people. “If you’ve got that from the start, whether it’s players or staff, it’s key to success. I’ve always been about getting the right people involved and that came across straight away through chatting with Willie.
