I am as gutted as anyone, I took my daughter’s boyfriend to his first RL game last night…what an advert. However I just don’t get your hatred for KF. Whoever was responsible for that shambles it was not KF.

Why isn’t KF responsible? He employed the coach who has produced the same bottle job shambolic performance in the play offs for the 3rd year running. He even gave the same coach a contract extension. Price is doing his best he’s just a crap coach. The whole of Super League know that apart from KF it seems.

Even Brian Carney waded in after Price's sign off interview. Gist of it was "thank god we won't ever have to interview that dull b*****ard again"

And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....

Not as far as the Mata’utia/Mamo swap is concerned.
Mata’utia is a decent centre, but he has some shocking games. He offers very little in attack - not much pace, can’t feed the winger and usually cuts inside even when there is space out wide.
Holmes is different - when he”s on the field he’s a very good player - hits hard in defence and runs good lines with good footwork in attack. If (and it’s a big IF) he stays fit, he’d get in any team in SL.


Christ, wait until you see one-trick Jake and his turnstile defence.... :lol:

Isn't the coach appointed by the Board, not the CEO?

Probably. I'd imagine it's advised by its CEO, who has gone through the CV's and done the interviewing, though?

No, I imagine that at least one or two of the Directors would sit on the appointment panel.

[quote="Lord Tony Smith"]I got slaughtered on here a year ago for saying that Karl doesn’t care and he’s only interested in the commercial/business side and not what happens on the pitch. A ruthless and strong CEO would have fired Price after we whimpered out of the play offs in 2019 having lost 7/9 games I think in the league. You only have to spend 5 minutes in the blokes company to recognise that. He was carrying water for us 5 years ago. Crowds poor, results abysmal, wasting money on crap players. How is this fraud still in our CEO?[/

Over the last three years one of them most honest and true statements of how the wire is run on this forum !!!

Karl went to Aus and interviewed Price then advised to the owners that he be appointed and was the best man for the job.

Wasn’t he the 3rd best man as the other 2 he went to talk with rejected us?
