Donaldson got a penalty for a high shot - seems to be his only attribute. How can a player with so little to offer get a contract extension at an elite club?

We have far bigger problems than giving Donaldson a contract extension

We have no money to rebuild to squad as we are mortgaged to the hilt for 40 years with 2 new stands, and season ticket sales will dwindle now too.

Watched the game at the pub and even with the beer and other distractions it was a terrible watch. Sometimes in sport, and in life, you have to take your medicine. We have had two doses against Wigan and Catalans and we'll be in for a 3rd next week. We're about to hit rock bottom. The remaining incomings for next year will have to absolutely top class to get us moving in the right direction again.

I hope You’re right about the rock bottom and the incomings. If you’re not on the latter, you’re probably not on the former either.

It would be just like the Dougie Laughton appointment and Wane's time as a player at Leeds , if their heart is not in it then it will never work

Anyone think Danny Ward might find his way back to Leeds in the end?

Cluesy we need you more positive mate. We may get beaten by Cas too because our team is routed. It’s a really tough call to put academy lads in when the physicality gap is so big to open age and the crowd are booing our own players. Not sure where RS can go with selection.

I was surprised it took ward so long to take another top job. He certainly did well in adversity in London and then has pulled a free falling cas team back together. Granted they only had to be better than Wakefield but at the time it looked like wakey were on the up and cas were done.

He just seems a smart bloke and a good communicator with a sense of humour but a bit of steel to him too.

Obvious ex Leeds links. I still against all the odds think RS might bring it back on track next year but… he won’t be given all the time in the world either.
