Re: Powell OUT : Sat Mar 25, 2023 9:50 am  
I think the performance is the most important thing in the Catalans, St H and Wigan games. And if we play badly in one of them, how that affects the following month in terms of confidence. Of course, all that really matters is a couple of games in the autumn, but performance, approach and resilience are what I'm looking for over the next month.

Yes, there would be some disappointment if that happened, but, for me, in those games it will be now more be about how we look against those 3 sides, rather than the results, because the good thing about winning these first 6 matches is that we have given ourselves a good cushion, where 3 losses wouldn't be a huge catastrophe with regards to league position - if we were to compete well in all 3 games, but lose them all by 2-6 pts, similar to how Huddersfield have done against us, Wigan and Saints, then I'd be ok with that - a couple of good confidence-damaging hidings and I'd be more concerned.


Spot on this. We've still only played 6 games and there's plenty of time for our team to develop much further. I have a funny feeling we'll do 2 out of 3.

I think we’ve had a great run of fixtures to blow the cobwebs off - I’m not always in the optimistic camp, but also the “why the hell not enjoy us playing well in Feb/March” camp. You can only play what’s in front of you but to win 6/6 with the rotation we’ve had through injury/suspension is the most pleasing for me. Looking forward to the big games in April but I hope the team are purely focused on beating Hull next Saturday.

Re: Powell OUT : Sat Mar 25, 2023 1:56 pm  
Plenty of people were willing to give Powell the first 6-8 games of the 2023 season to see some positive change. If we were still dog dirt like 2022 he would have to go. I am delighted this isnt the case. It appears the club had descended into a bad place under the last few years of Price and Powell needed a massive clearout and the ability to spend a lot of money in rebuilding. We will know if we are the real deal after the next 4 games. Having said that it's become a real pleasure to see the players so enthusiastic and to see flowing RL again.

Just been awarded Manager of the Month for March. That's 2 out of 2 Manager of the Month awards for this season.

Obviously, the most important one is Manager of the Month award for October, but extremely encouraging.

DP has proved that his overhaul has worked as he now has impressed his vision on his payers. Last year was the team were rightly derided for poor performance and as fans some of us were upset at the way things were. We now have positivity, which is a great relief.
