Grix once again picking Balmforth out and focusing on the negatives, blaming him for the play of the ball, is he going to mention any other players mistakes or just him again this week.

Really poor man management skills from Grix.

I think it's because everyone is banging on about him atm, I'm guessing it's his way of trying to keep everyone grounded.
Maybe it is poor management but none of us know Denive (afaik) perhaps it's the sort of thing he needs to keep focused.

Totally agree. He says he doesn't want to dig him out but does exactly that.

I get it that you don't won't to go over the top with praise on a youngster but to highlight a specific error is very poor. Far more experienced hookers have make that mistake including Houghton.

He seems to get far more cop than others maybe there's something going on behind the scenes that we are not privy to.

Easy, either keep quite, say nothing or just say Balmforth is going a good job for such an inexperienced player.

Worse case mention he has work to do with his game, dont pick individual errors or name areas of weakness like he has done the last two weeks.

Really poor from Grix.

Read it completely different, he was asked a question and said about him getting a lot of exposure but still having problems in his game, trying to keep him grounded to me

seems illogical that a club would keep such a promising player dangling on a string regading his contract and let the interim coach keep criticising him in the HDM
Those are things between the clubs coaches and Balmforth not aired via a local newspaper.
You play to players strengths
Steve Evans was a fast elusive half back but couldnt tackle a mouse yet played for Great Britain
Im with you.Something has gone on behind the scenes and more likely whilst Tinkering Tony was here.

The poor man's bonaire

Re: Shopping list for 2025 : Mon Jun 24, 2024 3:39 pm  
Whether he's signed or not will all be done and dusted by now. I know some of the younger players had signed contracts months ago but they've only just been announced

Just posted the same on the Warrington game thread…il end up sounding like Bonaire but Grix is out of his depth here and should have gone with Smith and Gene…he is championship level at best and I hope he goes at end of season
