Have to do this game and the rest of the season without Jonno..... Injured so I'm told

Says 2 months on social media ans says Johnno wanted to play despite being injured and paid the price.Asks more questions of the coach against player power.Maybe if we'd signed a proper half back in off season or the one before-when a Keighley reject was deemed the answer-we wouldn't have to rush players back so soon.....

Desperate coach I'd say.... He did the same with Tangata, rushed him back and then he was never right again. Tangata and RM not best buddies because if it. Let's face it, we have an inept coach who can't see what's in front of his eyes...

Aye, it's getting to the stage where our coach's negatives out weigh his positives. The fact is though he is here to the end of the season, like it or not, so we should get behind him and hope that he has turned things around enough to get this team of players to where they should be. We'll see. Up The Fax!

Honourable words but the guy is a clown and I wanted rid a long time ago....Personally I'd get rid or put him on gardening leave, he knows hes gone so why keep him in place now. Season could be over in 3-4 weeks if something doesn't change quickly... As it stands now, financially the club is on the brink.... So try do something positive to stop the rot and the crowds vanishing

As we apparently have no spare cash as we’ve spent it on coaches and players, the one advantage of loosing to South Leeds would be we could put the non paid winning bonuses towards RM’s payoff, although I’m told we have hardly any cash in bank to pay him off, so he would be on salary until end of his contract.

If he goes I suspect the BOD would appoint a couple of players as an interim measure whilst they find a cheap unemployed coach for the future.

Unless they get some money from somewhere I suspect RM is here until season ends.

A cup run would help, when did we last have one?

Possible cup upset on the cards if Hunslet are up for it

It would make sense to push QLT to 6 and White at 7 and drop Murrell (never going to happen). At least at first receiver there will be a little more zip. Chapman- Smith to fullback. As for woodburn- hall, I really don't know what his best position is. Not big enough for centre but has decent hands. I think he has the makings of a good 6 put I don't think RM's he's ever played there. I don't want to objectify Murrell for our failings this year but I am getting increasingly frustrated that he gets away with being out of shape when he would be a yard quicker if she dropped a stone. Grix could play 6 also but I think he's so banged up.

I think White has to be given a chance.
