Huddersfield Giants Consider Cartwright as Permanent Coach
The Huddersfield Giants are in the process of finding a long-term replacement for Luke Robinson, who was let go at the end of March following a string of five consecutive Super League losses. Interim coach Liam Finn has expressed interest in taking on the role permanently. According to Andy Kelly, the Giants' director of rugby, Cartwright is also being considered for the position, along with several other candidates. Kelly stated that the club is taking a meticulous approach to the hiring process, carefully evaluating each candidate's vision, technical expertise, and ability to manage the team. The Giants are currently third from bottom in the Super League standings, with only two wins in eight games this season. Kelly emphasized the importance of making the right appointment, citing the need for a coach who understands the club's history, community, and vision for the future. The recruitment process has been slowed down by the club's desire to align its player recruitment strategy with the potential coaching appointments. Kelly explained that the coach will have a significant say in recruitment decisions, and the announcement of the new head coach will be made once the right candidate is found.
