In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through the NRL, Sydney Roosters head coach Trent Robinson has reportedly submitted his resignation just minutes after touching down in Sydney earlier today.
According to sources close to the club, Robinson formally notified Roosters management of his decision shortly after arrival, bringing an abrupt end to one of the most successful coaching tenures in the club’s modern history. The resignation letter was reportedly submitted citing a combination of personal reflection, mounting pressure, and a desire for change after an extended period at the helm.
While official details remain limited, insiders suggest the decision followed weeks of internal discussions surrounding team performance, player welfare concerns, and the long-term direction of the club. Robinson is believed to have expressed that stepping aside now would allow the Roosters to reset and move forward with clarity ahead of the upcoming fixtures.
“This was not an emotional decision,” a source familiar with the situation said. “It was measured, respectful, and done with the club’s best interests in mind.”
Robinson, who took charge of the Roosters in 2013, delivered multiple premierships and helped establish one of the most dominant eras in the club’s history. His tactical innovation and leadership earned him widespread respect across the league, making today’s development all the more unexpected.
Players were reportedly informed shortly after the resignation was submitted, with several senior figures said to be “stunned” by the announcement. Club officials are expected to release a formal statement within the next 24 hours, while an interim coaching arrangement is already being discussed behind closed doors.
As the NRL community reacts to the news, questions remain about Robinson’s next move and what this sudden leadership change means for the Roosters’ season.
