McClennan commits future to Leeds Rhinos

COACH Brian McClennan has agreed a new one-year contract extension with Super League champions Leeds Rhinos.

There was speculation about his future with Leeds's poor start to the campaign and his deal expiring at the end of the season.

McClennan, who has led the club to successive titles since joining in November 2007, has seen his side return to form recently and will be in charge again for 2011.

Rhinos chief executive Gary Hetherington insisted: "The plan has always been for Brian to be here for a fourth season and perhaps beyond."
