We are in a big transitional period now.

Smith, Hardaker, & Partington in an ideal world without contracts can follow Lam out of the door.

Thornley will be an upgrade on Gildart who has been shocking this year.

We are desperately in need of another Prop, an additional centre to Thornley, 2 halves and a 9, that’s on top of our current signings.

This is a 2/3 year fix due in the main to the awful management of our leadership team.

This is fixed by everyone from owner to water-carriers leaving. If we are going to rebuild somehow, do it properly and gut the place.

Defiantly need a 9.

Joey Lussick would have been perfect, failing that Mitch Rein or Nathan Peats would be good.

It seems to me Rads wanting 'good eggs who work hard' has taken his eye off the ball and thats whether or not the player can play rugby league. That's why our squad is so inept.

In a thread full of moronic statements, this one wins the award.

The problem this season sits directly at the feet of Lam. How.do I know this? Simply put - the other guys around him have played their parts in successful sides. The defence has been solid and that's what Peet looks after. SOL is in his 1st season, he's basically an apprentice is his role.

That side tonight had two previous MoS and a Daley M 2nd row of the year. Singleton, Powell, Faz & Gildart have won all the major honours too and we failed to score even score a single point.

Every last bit of blame sits with that fraud of a coach. I truly believe that, if he'd have gone after the Catalan game and McDermott was brought in, we'd be playing in the GF this year.

Our mismanagement of the quota spots means we can’t sign any of them.

Just depressing how the leadership have let the club down in the last 3 years.

Can't believe how everyone is bagging Harry Smith,Hastings is the senior halfback and yet again he's been anonymous and created absolutely nothing he gets tackled in possession all too often which takes him out of the next play,he won't do anything in the NRL next season

Behave.

Nobody is saying Hastings was on fire tonight, but when he is your only attacking threat it’s not surprising he gets tackled in possession.

Smith is the worst half in SL on this years form.

To be honest I'm not really bothered about the defeat - I've never felt like that before and I don't see that changing for next season. There's nothing to get excited about - Lam, Radlinski and Lenagan have sucked the joy out of the club.

I’m excited it can’t be this bad again, certainly from an enjoyment point of view but I’m totally with you on tonight. I’ve never been relieved that a season is over before. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders at full time and I don’t ever recall feeling that before following a defeat.

Time to forget about rugby for a few months and that feels great at the minute.

You missed the conditioning staff off, you might be surprised at the level of incompetence in that area but cheers for the award.

He's not been great, but let's not go too far.

The worst half in the league?? What are we basing that one on?
