HALLELUJAH!! A fan who sees sense!! This is what im saying, isn't it a bit odd that the players who have had poor attitude seemingly on and off the pitch are getting sacked, let go etc by the club? This club is rotten and has deep rooted attitude problems that stem back to the end of the Radford era, Reynolds, Gale, Wynne, Evans, Griffin etc etc and now Hoy, i strongly believe they are getting told things they don't like hearing and wont buy into the way the club are trying to change things, and if that's the case this is the time we should all be getting behind the coaching staff and backing them getting rid of players who are stealing wages playing for our great club


Anyone can get rid of players especially the out of contract players we had end of last season.
A coach who can produce an ultra fit,well disciplined and dificult to beat team with both a defensive and attacking structure is what we need not this rambling fool.
People seem to forget this is his second season here and the club has gone backwards.
That is not the sign of a good coach.
Still say these players are not as bad as the results show.
Rightly or wrongly they are showing on the field they dont want to play for Smith

Does anyone think we look like a well coached or motivated team?


Yes
I love this coach,calm under pressure,and his recruitment of coaching staff and players is top class.
You can see the player motivation week after week with the effort they show in the number of penalties,and six agains given away and you have to admire the players desire to get a yellow or red card.
The coach has done a brilliant job with such a tight defensive structure and our low number of tries scored doesnt do justice to such a brilliantly coached attacking structure.

Welcome back Jake

No chance, would have mentioned Fash, Lane and Cator not been big enough.

Good to have Jake back.

I think I am prepared to let Tony have a crack for the rest of the season, if we come out of this with a group of youngsters who have the right attitude and a lot of game time under their belt then it might be good for the long term.

Lets face it, if he is still here, under these circumstances, and still fighting the rot - he must think he can do something about it
