That performance was a totally unaccepatable pathetic excuse for rugby league. Neil kelly has got to go after this, i too feel he has been out of the game far too long, and one positive is he has NEVER signed a contract and wont cost a penny to get rid. We are totally flat, play ONLY one man rugby, cannot tackle, cannot pass the ball along the line with pace, have no kicking game and have not got one set move or play. It is time for the board to accept they made a mistake with this appointment and right thier wrongs before we end up relegated ( a distinct possability with this kind of coaching ) show some ambition and get a name in that will bring some positive media to the club Mr Hanley ? ok will cost us but at least it will show ambition !!! I still feel with a couple of quality additions and the right coaching thier is promise in this squad, but when someone like Ian mort leigh born and bred who was again our best player imo stands and defends behind his own line without making an attempt to come towards the centre ( 2nd to last try ) who just dives over the line with Morty looking like he had totally given up it is DEFO time for a change. These of course are my own opinions and i am sure not all will agree with these points so discuss.......and lets see where we end up.

one really fed up of one man rugby leyther


wayne.

Get's to be a bit difficult when you're 1st line of defense consistently let's you down!

No coach could make a competitive team out of the current squad

Possibly, but they could make an entertaining one.

Skill and pace produce entertainment. Both sadly lacking

=============================================
YIP there are some bad un,s in that team but a lot of the blame is due to the coaching methods defo, the way they play is so amatuer its
a crime.
Time to bring in fresh blood both in coaching / fitness
and playing staff to be truthful to be up there we need at least two forwards a halfback and two centres which aint gonna happen with these directors i think

Shocking, disgusting, disgraceful - if that doesn't show that Neil Kelly is not up to the job then I don't know what does. He is responsible for the shambles we saw today, he's thieving a living!!

Swap with Cullen?

Your in dreamland mate. What do you want Neil too do? You cant make bad players play good rugby. We have no decent half backs except Durbin. I will no doubt get slated for this but Watson it dire, slow, Readable, crap kicking game. Marsh so slow its unbeliveable he is never a stand off. Ridyard sorry i think hes had his chance and just isn't good enough.
Forwards: totally outplayed for the whole of the game today. Which forwrds would you honestly keep from our current squad? Maybe Hill, armistead? who else honestly?
backs: tbh dont think our backs are that our backs are that bad. we jus need a scrum half and stand off. No coach in this league could make that team enjoyable to watch.
