Rabbitohs terminate services of Arthur Kitinas

The South Sydney DRLFC has today terminated the services of assistant coach Arthur Kitinas for the 2006 season.

Arthur has done a good job in difficult circumstances over the past 18 months as assistant coach, as well as Premier League Coach in 2002 and 2004 and caretaker Head Coach in 2004, but as he was not part of the Club?s plans for 2007 and beyond the Club felt it was time to implement changes now.

Mark Ellison will step into a more senior role as Shaun McRae?s assistant and current Parramatta Head Coach Jason Taylor will be joining Souths in 2007. Scott Murray, who has been Mark Ellison?s assistant in Premier League, will assume the role of Premier League Coach.
