Who'd be a full back?

Full back will be easiest position of all today.

A high kick will either blow backwards or blow into the car parks. Be a bloody good kick to get within 20m of any full back.

If game goes ahead it will be hilarous.

More worried about the rest of the backs, who simply have no heart at all, and poop themselves with kicks on a none wind day.

They will be OK im sure. They arent allowed to be criticised anyway. Blame it on the 19 year old full back.

here’s hoping for a Rhino win if the match goes ahead, the question I want to ask is have we really improved as a team over the last two seasons. Some on here myself included have criticised the team after the game against Hull, others rightly so have pointed out that we have only played one game. Looking at the bigger picture this is the start of the third season where candidly we have been poor in terms of team performance. What it says is as a team there is little improvement even though we all say that in terms of players the squad is better. For the first game against Hull we should have been out of the blocks much better than we was, Agar has had a full pre-season getting them ready, yet it showed we was not ready.
My opinion for what it is worth Agar was never the right man for the job and neither was Furner. Make your own mind up who’s fault it is, but the sooner we get a top quality coach into Headingley then the better for everyone concerned. If we are all talking about the squad being better on paper then the finger needs to be pointed at Agar

I have every confidence that had Handley not bombed that clear try at start of game, then the rest would have turned out differently. Thus the views of some might also have been different.

However, that for me doesn’t change the position, that we are in a hole and trying to use our hands to cling to things to get out, rather than just simply putting a pair of ladders or a rope down it. We are not using the right tools and getting where we should be.

In agreement with you, but where do you point the blame

Games off anyway - glad I don’t have to leave the house now

Without a shadow of doubt, this could have been so much easier without the arrogance of one man, who took his eyes completely off the ball, Hetherington. Having done so much, so right to get us where we were, he has done so much wrong since, and simply doesn’t react quick enough.

Sinfield will get it right, but he should be doing it off his own decisions, not pampering to Hetherington, or feeling he has to control the other aspects. Have a vision, and pit it in place, no matter who it upsets. Shake it up a bit.

Could be a lottery and knock on a thon today.

Low kicks near the line should be very difficult for both full backs, particularly if we get standing water holding the ball up
