41. Brian McDermott: Stories from English rugby league, Super League success and coaching philosophy

Having joined the nib Newcastle Knights coaching staff in the off-season, Senior Assistant Coach Brian McDermott talks about his journey within the game and how the squad is preparing for the 2023 season.

A highly regarded coach and former English Super league player, McDermott has won several major trophies and titles, including four premierships at the helm of the Leeds Rhinos, making him the most successful coach in Super League history.

On the KNIGHTS // HQ Podcast, the boys test Brian's knowledge on his playing and coaching career, plus a game against our very own Knights back in '02 as part of the World Club Challenge.

The new Assistant Coach also spoke about his transition into coaching after over 250 games for the Bradford Bulls. He also shares stories from his title-winning Leeds sides including a famous treble-winning season in 2015.

McDermott also discusses his excitement to work in a new country, in the NRL.
