Whoever comes in needs carte blanche in player hiring and firing. The best parts of the “golden generation” have now gone, all we’ve left with is a basket case of a team that needs breaking apart and starting again.

A frank new pair of eyes are needed not blinded by Leeds’s OBN. Break it up, salvage what we can and start again. If that means putting noses out of joint so be it. Side before self, every time.

Whatever coach comes in, if he persists with the madness of Sinfield and Hetherington that Sutcliffe can be an half, then he won’t last very long. How many years has it been now that this club have persisted with this nonsensical thought? Sick and tired of people going on about purely forwards, we are poop in the halfs, and that’s where it starts.

If I have to watch any more years with the likes of Sutcliffe, Handley, Ferris, JJB, I am going to cry. And you can add into that Briscoe, and more sooner Lolohea and Albert.

I think our biggest weakness is in the halves as well. We desperately need a half who organises the team, I was just thinking earlier how McGuire would have been shouting at everyone in that team today
and telling them what’s what.

You can tell hiw dire it is when we actually look better with Myler in the side as he is the only one with any amount of organisation however small

Unfair as Ive hardly seen him play but I’ve not seen anything from McLelland to back up his reputation, has Union ruined him already?

Ouch. Wonder if part of that was the pro-Furner players? I'd be stunned if some didn't like him.

Regardless, for me the only way to react moving forward is to make clear the club is backing Agar whilst he's in charge, and for Agar to drop as many poop performers as he can for next week. Player power is a bad thing generally - its an utter disgrace when the team is terrible.

Doesn't matter who it is. Even if they're only appointed for this year they have to be able to pick whatever side they see fit regardless of how many players get upset. There's literally nobody in the squad with any credit in the bank from past endeavours - they've spent it all.

Looking at how things have been managed since McDermott left it looks to me as if Sinfield is the head coach and has been for some time. Will he “butt out” if a new man is appointed? I have my doubts.

Gone a bit quiet on the coach front ot seems... anyone heard anything? I thought I'd read a possible press conference was going to be had shortly..

Re: New Head Coach - who's it going to be? : Mon May 13, 2019 12:36 pm  

Wane quoted as saying he'd speak to Leeds. Peter Smith yep. Not been approached yet though rather surprisingly
