[quote="BrentWebb85"]McDermott has to go. I’ve had enough of his endless poor decision making. We have got steadily worse under his command. Yes, we are Champions, but our rugby is awful, which also includes last year’s Grand Final. Here’s what he has/does wrong...
- Started with Sinfield and McGuire. When he moved Sinfield to stand off we lost a playmaker with Burrow moved to the bench. McGuire one man in at scrum-half made it harder for him to support the offload, which was one of his strongest assets.
- Our rugby is terrible. There is no structure in our attack and, a lot of time, in our defence. One out rugby for 60 mins against Cas is not going to work.
- Joel Moon is not a stand-off but a great centre. Myler has structure but if Moon takes the ball from one side of the pitch to the other it ruins any set plays Myler may have planned. We, again have lost a playmaker by moving Moon away from the centres and no room for Lilley.
- Our kicking game is awful. Moon just kicks it as high as possible on the last or drills it in to touch...even if we are losing!
- Our wingers don’t score tries anymore. Neither have ever practiced the art of the spectacular dive which is a highly effective asset in the modern game.
- Cuthbertson and Parcell are getting gradually worse under McDermott. Where is the previously great offload game?
- Our forwards are flogged. JJB plays 80mins every week despite being physically tired. No wonder he is out injured now. Similar to Ablett; he could still be effective in short stints.
- Keinhorst’s Leeds career will be over at the end of the season despite his potential in the 2nd row.
- I don’t even need to mention his substitutions. Well, maybe one bit. Poor Brad Dwyer. He got more game time at Warrington.

Burrow was never a good play maker.

Lilley not an impact type player, he needs 6-8 game run to see what he brings to the team.
- Our wingers don’t score tries anymore. Neither have ever practiced the art of the spectacular dive which is a highly effective asset in the modern game. Who cares about spectacle right dives
Hall does not need this anyway he just bulldozes through tacklers, and he is scoring more this year than last, handley gives him better service than moon ever did.
- Cuthbertson and Parcell are getting gradually worse under McDermott. Where is the previously great offload game?
Great offload last night led to a try, not having garbutt and si go means cuthbo not playing his usual game.
- Our forwards are flogged. JJB plays 80mins every week despite being physically tired. No wonder he is out injured now. Similar to Ablett; he could still be effective in short stints.
Agree
- Keinhorst’s Leeds career will be over at the end of the season despite his potential in the 2nd row.
Agree but can't blame the lad for wanting regular game time.

Agree
