All's OK tonight wasn't one of the games we had targeted for a win "direct quote from club official".

Pointless buying in more players. Money should be spent on an Assistant and a defensive Coach. As already said we are static in defence and he opposition just walk 10m every play, then we miss tackles and gift more possession. The occasional mistake we benefit from just results in a mistake of our own or a stupid offload that we bomb.

I wondered how long it would be before the assistant coach one cropped up.

Well where else do we go other than down? I would be happy to see small improvements each week, something that shows we are learning from mistakes. But no we just seem to get better at making the same mistakes and lazy sloppy play. We can't replace the Players but we could strengthen the Coaching Staff.

For me for any chance of us surviving the head coach needs replacing with some with more experience. It's not good when you can be heard arguing with a player during the game.

Tell us more. Arguing with who, and about what?

No idea who it was with you could only hear one side of the conversation.

The other thing about tonight is that it seemed like the flattest atmosphere I can remember for Bulls vs Rhinos Derby

Just 10,106 with what looked like around 3K from Leeds - our floating support really seems to have drained away. Hardly any noise coming from the crowd, at least it seemed like that.

What do you expect when we are served up the display we had tonight? I thought in the circumstances it was a good crowd that had very little to cheer about. Says a lot when the only things we had to cheer about were their missed kicks!

Really dull, depressing and dreary! We have been beaten by similar scores when we had a half decent side (2005), but not seen a game where Leeds could treat it as a training exercise like 60 mins of tonight was. Most telling moment for me was the high tackle Leeds were penalised for with about 10 mins to go, our guys stood and watched, the Leeds forwards piled in waiting for the fight, which ever came! For me Cummins has to go! Rookie coach who is out of his depth in this situation. If a team plays with pride I'll follow them (2012 Leeds home, Wigan away), this lot show little pride. If something doesn't change, can't see us winning more than 2 games! I'll still be there, but many won't .

One thing to add, I thought Kearney was great tonight, our MOM by miles, only one try (McGuire) where I thought he could have done better.
