Is Simmons the right man? : Fri Feb 24, 2012 10:08 pm  
Good squad strength at start of season

Conceded over 100 points in first 4 games.

Consistently under using the match 17

Why exactly did we sign Hohia?

Note not Simmons out, but ....he's under pressure surely?

The points conceded are a concern, but it's too early to say the coach is under pressure.

I'm just starting the debate.

I can see a developing squad at Saints that looks up there with the 2006 last GF winning team. But have we got the coach?

Nice one Andy. You articulated a differing opinion given reasons and substance.

This is the sort of thread I'd expect from clueless Leeds fans. The guy has taken you to a Grand Final already, which many would say you were unlucky to lose (Shenton and Wellens injuries), has integrated a whole host of young players into your squad, many in key positions and has seemingly coped well with the losses of the likes of KC and Graham.

You won't be the only good side to be beaten by a very good Catalans side this year either

Re: Is Simmons the right man? : Fri Feb 24, 2012 10:34 pm  
I think the worry is where we that good in the first half or where catalans that poor?

It seams we can play great but not play for the full 80.


Best team? It was hardly a shoddy line up, we can argue a couple of players but the majority of that team where our best.
