It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Hudds are spanking Catalans in France tonight. We will really need to improve for next Friday night.

The next 6 games are vital to our season. We have Huddersfield who just walloped Catalans away in the cup. Hull FC who are in complete disarray, London at home, Catalans away, St Helens away and Cas at home. I expect us to win 3 (Hull FC, London and Cas) and lose 3 (Hudds, Catalans and Saints) leaving us with a P13, W7, L6 record and probably just hanging onto the pack chasing 5/6th place. Anything worse than this as Smith should be removed, same if we don’t achieve 4th or better by the end of the season. We have a squad that should be no worse than 4th, and were currently sat 8th, with no sensible or recognisable way of defending or attacking.

Pretty much agree Bats.
Although I really don't think Smith will be sacked mid-season, regardless of where we are.
The club may be planning for a change at the end of the season, but not a lot of point removing him halfway through as we won't be relegated.
Pretty depressing that we fully expect to get beaten at home by Hudds.
Hope we're wrong of course!
And there's something very wrong if we don't win all 3 of the games you highlighted.

Assuming they had a tough game physically against Catalans and a few battered bodies and we will have had 2 weeks to recover from niggles no excuse this time for anything other than a win at home

Shoulda coulda woulda.

Short of us finishing in next to last place he will stay I think.

If we reach above 8th it will be the usual backslapping congrats/ paper over the cracks regarding performances.

The start of the season has been pretty woeful, with lots of call back behaviour/antics that were so dysfunctional last year.

Fingers crossed we start to string some wins together,will only get harder
