Getting a bit fed up now of watching mediocre rugby. Same old Same old! Nothing seems to change and we aint moved on in years. Im 50/50 on a renewed contract as other coaches with a lesser CV than Tim's have brought in better players. Sitting 5th now but bottom 3 within a couple of weeks.

If he could sort out defence then for me he can stay, but missing 53 tackles against Salford doesnt suggest he can. 159 missed tackles in 4 games is pathetic. Do we a defence coach?

Wow I really hope Grudgehull does give the wizard another three year contract. How many years would that make it since you’ve won a major trophy?

My thoughts is his shrewdness has gotten and is keeping Rovers in SL.



I can't see him hanging around without money.

Early days but not been convinced in any game so far. We just do not kill teams off which is a major weakness and has got to be addressed. Is it a mental thing? but we don,t see anyone cajoling the troops or shouting and driving them on, no one playing to the crowd, they all seem to relaxed. Wish we had a Clint Newton or Cockayne in the team. We need to get nasty and horrible to play against. Yes we are playing Super League teams, but we just seem too soft when it matters and are missing a killer instinct..not happy.

In terms of quality we’re [imaybe[/i a mid-table team. Which’d be an improvement on recent seasons.



I know I went off on one, in my own gentle way, at the weekend. And to lose after being 14 points up is painful. However, if we’d lost by 2 having been down by 14 at HT, i’d probably have been banging on about a slow start costing us. Losing needs rationalising in a way that winning doesn’t.



There may be a mental or cultural element to it, but in SL there are teams that are better than us, teams that are on a similar level, and then, trying not to be too disrespectful, London. I think that’s the bigger issue.



We showed decent mental fortitude in that last set in the derby, after all.

Prior to the start of this season Sheens gave an interview to the Yorkshire Post and it seemed like he wanted to stay on for 2020 but the club had yet to make up their minds;



[i“What will be will be. Again, it’s out of my hands. You never say never and you want to continue. But it really comes down to what the club wants, what they see the future of the club is and that’s out of my hands.

There are teams like Wakefield & Salford who are spending less than Rovers but outperforming us I think that is why the board are unwilling to commit at this stage.



However Tim doesn't want to go back to Australia so it's only fair the club makes a decision in good time. Halfway through the season would seem reasonable.

Bet you was fuming wasn’t you?





To be honest, Tim could be the most entertaining rovers coach since the rat catcher. I really hope he stays for a really long time. I’ve heard even the players mock him in the dressing room.

Sure you have

Are you sure you have the right team? Ask Abdul and Logan about Radfords changing room conduct, think you will find he is a flat track bully.

Most strong leaders are considered bullies by those that cannot meet the expectations of their leaders. Tim on the other hand is being laughed at. Don't believe me, that's your prerogative. Maybe you have another reason grudgehull has gone quiet on offering him a new contract/pension.

Strong leaders? Think Ellis deserves more credit than Lugs.

With apologies for biting...



In what way(s) do they find him laughable? He’s funny how?



Because to my mind, if it’s that he doesn’t have an Instagram account or doesn’t know who Drake is, that doesn’t really count.



Also, who was/is the rat catcher? It’s possible I missed this but equally, as you seem to have accidentally locked yourself in your bathroom for 7 months, I wonder if you have created a new lexicon in your desperate isolation and, still delirious from a diet of toilet paper and toothpaste, it hasn’t occurred to you that we weren’t there to share your hallucinatory insights?

A loss v Huddersfield and Addled will disappear again

Yes let’s hope so you can tell he is a glorified nutter who only comes out of hiding when hull Winn’s

the landlord has had us in stitches since the middle of last summer ,hope adamski extends his tenure by 10 years

The rat catcher was Gary Wilkinson I think our coach from about 25 yrs ago he has his finger on the pulse does this new idiot

Quote fun time frankie="fun time frankie"The rat catcher was Gary Wilkinson I think our coach from about 25 yrs ago he has his finger on the pulse does this new idiot'" Ahhh, many thanks ftf. 2001-2002, he was in charge. That was about two-thirds of the way through my 15-year paying very little attention period. My apologies to Adler - I feel duly schooled. I stand by the bathroom theory though. I’m also delighted to discover that the nickname arises, wonderfully prosaically, from Gary Wilkinson working in pest control.

I hear it's a delicacy down Boulevard way?

Careful Craigy, decent knowledgeable supporters also read these posts.

Quite

Jesus f#cking Christ. The Sharks win one game out of 14 they all come swimming out the cistern they've been hiding in.

You know f#ck all about f#co all. Radford can bring his coaching achievements and compare them with Sheens' anytime. Though that would be a no contest, towel thrown in, sorry to bother you Mr. Sheens....

So players that have laughed at Tim Sheens.......so let's have a little think who he has coached who 'laughed at him

Gary Belcher

Mal Meninga

Laurie Daley

Ricky Stuart

Glen Lazarus

Bradley Clyde

Brett Hodgson

Benji Marshall

Scott Prince

Jonathon Thurston. This is a very short list. It doesn't include those he coached solely for the Australian team not other greats as a club coach.

Many of these he gave their debuts and helped make their careers.

Radford?

Plus many of the players we’ve signed have cited Sheens the reason they have this new idiot we have to put up with is in the same mould as F.C. gimp houghtons heroes etc proper crap trolls

Glad to see some sense posted. I for one am happy that we have him as coach, looking at the list of players he has coached & influenced is a list of the modern games icons! What I hope he is bringing to our club is structures & habits that will move our club upwards & onwards. It not his fault that the talent we have is not to the high standard that he has worked with before but I am sure he will improve what our players have more than any other coach available here. And if any players are laughing at him then we should get rid at once, if they can’t see what he brings to our club then it’s them that should be ridiculed.
