Super League fans have had their say on whether Luke Robinson\u2019s sacking<\/a> by Huddersfield Giants was \u2018unfair\u2019 or not.<\/p>\n

Robinson took interim charge of the Giants in late 2024, seeing out the final 11 games of that season, but he\u2019s now been sacked just five rounds into the 2026 Super League campaign.<\/p>\n

Plenty has been made of the Giants\u2019 cold statement in which they simply confirmed that his contract had been terminated<\/a> and then immediately sought applications for a replacement, with questions ultimately asked about the culture at the club including by Serious About Rugby League\u2019s sister site The Yorkshire Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Robinson\u2019s win rate of just under 30% certainly wasn\u2019t good enough but the club\u2019s constant injury crisis and recent recruitment meant Robinson was massively hamstrung.<\/p>\n

Serious About Rugby League asked Super League fans if they felt Robinson was \u2018sacked unfairly\u2019 by Huddersfield Giants, with the overwhelming majority of fans believing that to be the case.<\/p>\n

Super League fans question Luke Robinson sacking<\/p>\n

Even those who did think that Robinson was sacked \u2018unfairly\u2019 made note of the club\u2019s other issues when responding to Serious About Rugby League\u2019s Facebook post.<\/p>\n

Lee Morris: He was sacked fairly but if Huddersfield think he was the problem, they\u2019re going to find out ever so quickly that he wasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Joshua Parker: I\u2019d say not as that\u2019s just how the game works but it\u2019s hard to say when there\u2019s other issues and injuries all the time which isn\u2019t his fault.<\/p>\n

Others were far more sympathetic with Robinson.<\/p>\n

Andrew Pleasants: I think given the injuries it\u2019s a miracle they\u2019re even as competitive as they are in some games.<\/p>\n

Pauline Parr: He can\u2019t produce miracles.<\/p>\n

Brenda McAllister: Yes he was. I feel sorry for him with all those injuries. What was he supposed to do and who really is going to take they position and what can they do?<\/p>\n

Darren Brown: Luke is not the problem, even world class coaches would struggle with that injury list. The guy is Huddersfield through & through nobody will want what he wants.<\/p>\n

Jason Gibson: Definitely. Any coach would struggle under those circumstances. Unfortunately for him it\u2019s a results business.<\/p>\n

Andrew Jarrett: Be interesting to see what Magician or Faith Healer they bring in to prove they were right.<\/p>\n

Dave Phillips: With the injuries they have there\u2019s probably no other coach who could get them playing to full unless they had unlimited cap and money.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
