Don`t forget next year will be our 7th year of rebuilding and like others have said that should not be acceptable to a club like Leeds.
Some serious mis management has gone on here with coaching and player recruitment.
But we will go again to year 7 and see what happens.

This is the biggest frustration for me. Every year has felt like the same.
Knowing what needs to happen ,but not doing it. Signing players that aren't good enough,losing players that were.

Agree Chapylad. The recruitment has been beyond woeful. But in mitigation let's not forget we have rebuilt the stadium which is easily the best in RL. Plus there has been a pandemic.

Here's thought...perhaps the crucial mistake was putting Sinfield - a bloke with zero admin or organisational development experience - in such and crucial role so early in his post playing career.

I don't think we're that far off squad wise. With the number of out of contract players atvthe end of season, it gives us some room to add some more quality. The biggest thing for me has been how poorly coached we look. No structure in attack, shocking discipline. These are things that can be improved over the course of this year and next season. We haven't had much luck with injuries, but you tend not to when you're playing poorly and getting battered in attack and defence

Hmmm, you rate the playing squad much higher than I do. I said this before the season even started. But let’s see. If Rohan gets them winning regularly I’ll stand corrected …..

This team can definitely play better than it has.
A new coach and getting players back from injury and suspension will help but we have to stop picking up stupid bans.

We also need to start playing with some structure, heart and skill.
Can't just panic pass or hope Dwyer does something from running at the ruck

We have a very low chance of success with Dwyer playing 80 mins as the halves cannot play without decent ball…..

Toulouse are there for the taking,like Cas were. Can we actually capitalise off their mistakes / poor play
