Correct.
I'll give you one guess at how the majority on here think the 2024 season will go, with Powell(y) in charge

He's killing us

Surely even you (as one of his defenders.....I wish we had some on the pitch in the second half) can see this.

Won't sack Powell yet.
Moaners who love a sacking, over the years, will have to wait a bit.
Shows how thin we are but we need Williams & a bit more.

But people dont want a sacking for no reason. They want their club to be better and competitive when its obvious the incumbent cant deliver. They want the dismal results to end.

Something should really change in the ruck. I'm tired of hearing the referee blaming the player with ball in hand for not being able to play the damn thing. "You're moving forward!" Yeah, because they're trying to get the sod clinging to them off long enough to play the game! If a player is writhing on the floor so much they move 5 metres forward, it's because the defender on top of them has been there beyond warranted time. It's ridiculous.

Right now we are as far away from winning a GF as we have ever been.

Whatever our conditions coach is doing it’s clearly not working as the second half they all looked legless.

Well who the hell does he think he is? If he was still at Wigan he wouldn't be getting a gig and I'm still waiting for an injury free run to show what the fuss is about.

Maybe that kind of nonsense is part of the problem.

I think you’re wrong, he was only kept out due to Bateman. We just replaced Nicholson with Nsemba. If true, It just shows what commitments in your team.It will be interesting what player King comes back as

I'd sooner see how this season pans out before even thinking about 2024.

As for being a defender of Powell, I actually see myself more as a level headed realist in comparison to the knee-jerking, whinging majority, who seem to spend half their time wetting their pants over any little thing they can find to moan about...

And you equally spend as much time moaning at the moaners.

We are simply not playing good enough. We don't have the perfect squad but we are playing nowhere near our potential. The buck stops with Powell. If he doesn't arrest this fall in the next few games then we should cut our losses.

Disagree mate it stops with our money men Lomax Moran etc who know knob all about rugby..i.e if I was a multi millionaire I'd want to know what I was buying..the buck starts with them..do you honestly think old moaner at saints would buy the likes of kasiano dishwater dudson matautia etc...would he balls...all very well going the rams head for a mickey up after another loss to create a team bonding exercise..shove it actions speak louder than words...Dita hit the nail on head a while ago get an academy here the best that money can buy and attract all the top young kids..instead of throwing money at players are only here to top up there pension fund...rant over
