Rohan Smith does not view the shake-up of Leeds Rhinos' performance department as a threat to his position after welcoming the decision to appoint a new sporting director.
The club revealed their intention to restructure the rugby operation earlier this week in a significant development at Headingley. The sporting director will 'provide strategic direction, leadership and oversight' of the performance department, including autonomy over player and staff retention and recruitment.
It won't be a rookie so it'll be someone I can get support off and learn from, and support them and work on the operation together.' Smith has borne the brunt of the fans' frustrations in recent months with the Rhinos seemingly a long way behind their traditional rivals. Asked if he was fighting for his job, the 43-year-old replied: 'I feel pressure and understand pressure. 'I've only been around coaching my whole life. I don't feel any more or less than normal.
