so having heard all this and looking at the squad how do you expect to go this season.
looking from the outside the last couple of seasons you failed, in my opinion, because you had very few quality players and far to many average ones.
i have to say, menzies and scruton apart, whats changed?
just interested in what you think thats all

I have a view on this.

What, every player? All the time? What a simplistic question. A short answer would be that we haven't been great, but the league table says we have been considerably better than average.


You very probably would, I bet you're a typical Rhinos bandwagoner and will surely jump as soon as they stop winning. Me on the other hand, I watch Bradford whether poor, great or average and pretty much enjoy my days out overall whatever, but that's just me.

As opposed to a "everythings great in the garden of odsal and i'll believe any bollox that hood and mcbanna say" bulls fan!!
He's right and you know it FA.
Oh and do you think scruton and menzies won their respective grand finals on their own??
Another year of average performances and excuses from"the greatest young english coach around"for you!!

Great argument. You really quashed his opinion.

What, apart from signing two 2008 GF winners? Oh, not all that much.

Theres no doubt they will improve you.

But you already had a decent pack. Are you going to keep harping on about these poxy signings whenever someone dares question a failing team?

Leeds signed a 2008 world cup winner and danny buderus, someone who has achieved everything in the game. Tha doesn't necessarily mean leeds will be loads and loads better, but one of them plays in a pivotal position and so has more influence over games.

So you think nick scruton, burgess and menzies, all forwards will be the difference between a first round playoff exit and challenging for silverware?

Look at your performances last season. You were average. Outside 2 teams the league is a very poor standard.

That's rich considering the way your fan base has dwindled since you stopped winning.

far from being a bandwaggoner i have watched through some dire times. i asked a genuine question, wasn't a wind up. however your response suggests your not as confident as you make out
