I doubt McDermott will be sacked if we lose on Friday.
In my opinion we need better, our attack and defence is woeful and we rely on individual talent.
You only have to look at Wigan's attack structure in which they can slot numerous players in and still attack well. They execute dummy runners well and make it very difficult for a defence to predict where the ball shall go.
In defence, it is so unreliable and leaky with holes opening very easily.
We need a coach with a bit of technical nous which would recover our defence and attack. I think the quality of players are there, it is just the quality of coaching.
you make some good points,and i certainly agree with the part that we need to get some structures in our game.
Look at the top sides.Wire and Wigan have very good structures and when they are in the opposition half always look dangerous with the runners all knowing what is happening.The 20 minutes Wire took us apart at Wembley is a perfect example of this.However,like you say we rely too much on individual brilliance to come up with points and in defence look all at sea all too often.
Mac has had 2 seasons to stamp his authority on this group but nothing has changed and whether he has the ability to or not i dont know, but i cant see it changing next season.
But,as has been said maybe its just best to let him see out our transitional period then line up a top quality coach to bring some fresh ideas to the team.
