So thats how you decide wether a coach is good or not?

If he gets a team to a grand final he's rubbish?

Dont think it'll catch on tbh

thats all he did though, lwell apart from playing people out of position and playing his "lovechild " every game, plus last season Agar was left to pick up Sharps pieces, thus resulting in us finishing 11th, this season will and is proving to be oh so different,

I wasn't aware I said that. My point was that just because a coach is successful for a few months doesn't mean he's a good coach, and I pointed the fact that Peter Sharp got Hull to a GF in his first half a season in charge - however he was found out in his second season in charge.

Agar is a good young British coach who deserves a chance to proves his worth.

Bradford have recruited really badly IMO

to be fair to Mcmanara a big squad overhall would have been needed even if Noble had stayed due to age, and the union defections of Hape and Vainikolo.

but just who's idea was it to bring in Ben Jeffries? he is bottom of SL/championship standard at best and struggles to make an impact in so many games.

and Steve Menzies has been a fine player, but did Bradford really need another forward so desperately? when the halves and the backs are so poor, and at age 35 he isn't one to build a team around.

in the glory days yes they would steamroller teams, but they had a good backline to finish of the chances. Now the ball gets to the backs and chances are just bombed.

the scoreline flattered them today, and Hull really do need to begin killing off games if we want to challenge for the title.

We havn't been blowing teams away, but with the exception of Wigan just after half time I think we have looked extremely comfortable in every game. The Bradford score did flatter them, but we didn't give them a sniff of victory all game imo.

McNamara and his coaching staff have to go for Bradford to improve. How he isn't getting good performances as strong as theirs I don't know because despite injuries, its still one of the best on paper. Also his signings and re-signings in the backs is just criminal compared to Pryce, Vainikolo, Hape, Viakona, Withers etc
