Anyone feel like changing their vote?

Nope, far from it. But the guy can now leave with dignity as he should at the end of the season with an announcement sometime soon. GH should already be actively searching his replacement imo.

100% agree.

spot on. I wish he'd done that at the end of last year. whatever your opinion he deserves to leave in a dignified manner

Surely it depends on how the rest of the season pans out?
Our defence - Cas apart - looks better than last year & the attack is at last showing more variety.
McGuire I think will hang up his boots, probably JJB too.
What will be critical is what happens to Parcell, will his trip back home at the end of the season produce a Segayaro outcome?
Currently there are other SL coaches whose future is less secure than McDermott's.

Whatever your opinion (and i too thought it was time to go after the cas game), you cant deny that the players clearly wanted to play for the coach and eachother in the last couple of weeks.

True. Looks the complete opposite at Warrington.

Thing is, I like and respect Brian. But he just gives me to many head scratching moments. I'd like him to leave with dignity at the end of the season, maybe go on to become the England coach or something.

My money is for Cunningham to go first. Don't think anyone else will join him, smith will probably get some wins for Warrington sooner or later. He will go at the season end. If we get a top four finish the club will have a difficult decision regarding Brian Mac

Rick Stone must be on thin ice too.defeat this weekend and against us next week and he must on the brink.I agree re- Cunningham, looks in serious trouble and Catalans away today followed by an equally desperate Warrington next weekend are certainly not the 2 games you would hand pick to ease the pressure. Tony Smith is a strange one, i'm sure he will turn it around sooner or later but its already looking like SL chances are over for this year and like McDermott he has been in charge there for many years depends if those at the top feel now is the time to shake things up as to whether he goes or not.

As for McDermott, he will be thankful we got 2 home games after that humiliation at Cas against sides who were not really a threat, that said the attitude of the players in the games shows he has not lost the dressing room. He has at least bought himself another couple of months barring another Cas like showing in coming weeks.

It's funny how after the Castleford game quite a few were saying they couldn't see us winning any of the next 4 games, but now those first two were easy predictable wins.
