Playing in "a poorly coached team"

Either way, to say Croft is a one season wonder is daft. Hed walk into most if not all SL cubs and a fair few in the NRL

Why are we so poor though? We definitely have some very average players but we also have some very good ones who are playing terribly. It feels like the coach has lost a chunk of the squad. If that's happened then his situation is untenable regardless of what anybody thinks.

If he stays then results against Hull and Cas in the next couple of weeks will paper over the cracks. We haven't beaten anyone aside from the terrible trio since March, and that was Leigh, who are now playing better than when we narrowly beat them. We are 'only' 6 points from the top of the league but the gap between us and the top on the field is as big as it was in the worst of the Agar years.

I 100% agree if he’s lost the players especially the senior members he’s done for, theres no coming back from that.

If we play as bad as we did tonight we will not beat either cas or hull

He probably wishes he was back at Salford,at least they played to their potential under a very good coach.

I hope Cas thrash us.

Burn it to the ground.

Sadly, there’ll be a few players looking to get out of their contracts.

Re: Smith out ASAP : Sat May 25, 2024 6:52 am  

Yeah yeah yeah they'll be banging on Hetheringtons office door this morning absolutely demanding to have their own contracts terminated so they can join another side. Yeah yeah. So bad. How could we. Yeah yeah yeah. It's so terrible. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, they'll all want out immediately. Yeah

Croft wouldn't get in 90% of the NRL sides - he looked a good player in a side that played to his strength. He should be having more impact in the games than he does

Isn’t he the leading try assist charts in the league?

Any running/creative half back is going to struggle when your team is coughing up possession and more importantly field position like we are doing.

Theres a bit of a shortage of half backs in the NRL (hence dodd getting a gig and even Sezer) he would get in most teams.
