Aye, that's about right regarding discipline although Kav isn't too bad. Lannon though I thought was absolutely outstanding against Barrow and put in a performance of all round quality, a joy to watch from a forwards point of view. Anyroad, time for off. York here we come. Up The Fax!

Did someone change the title of this thread. Not much said about the upcoming game just lots about how bad some of our players and coach are.

The coaches watch the game and replays but also rely on stats which are not made public and should not be.
Who knows why Maizen has been dropped this week. Probably just Grix and Maizen but there will be a reason.

Oops I went off subject





So come on , less slanging and more support.



Fax to win by 12.

Don't get why some folk are getting their knickers in a twist about slagging off the players. All in all just "observations" as far as I can see as to why Maizen, for example, might have been shipped out. Quite a tame message board imo. You should read the likes of the whinos BB after they lost at Wakefield, now that was REALLY nasty!

Oh, and re today's match at York. We're playing some good attacking stuff at the mo and AOB has made a big difference. York have a couple of key players back in Antrobus and Glover who missed Haven, but feel very confident even tho' it will be tough. York 12 Fax 28.

Yeah makes me laugh on Facebook where they won't have anything bad said about anyone but its very rare you will see personal attacks and more just comments on performance which for athletes in the public eye is going to happen and whether they like it or not. We seem a very polarised fanbase, it seems when reading posts people either think Grix should be sacked immediatley as we are massively underperforming or you have the ones who think he is the greatest thing since sliced bread and think that he is over achieving because somebody told them we have the 13th best budget in the league.

in his interview simon grix said had injuries from the last game but was not going to say who / what in the interview.
the DR rocks up for a reason?

Time to go Grix. The guy clearly isn't a COACH.

Score nearly right, not to mention being the wrong way round!

Couldn't make the game today, but following the twitter feed it looked like the usual ill discipline and errors. All very frustrating, but a really tough league, as evidenced by Sheffield losing at Swinton and Batley grabbing it late at Barrow.

A real danger of not making the top 6. Very tough game at Batley next week and if we lose that, London could close to a point when they take on Toulouse (who don't travel well) at home.

For those who attended today, how did you rate the performance on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being brilliant and 1 garbage?

Serious questions need to be asked now. Listened to the commentary; Another healthy bombed lead and to be out-enthused by York, irrelevant of their league position having played mid- week is pretty abysmal. Why is Fanoua playing? He will be back to Cas next week. I hope Tibbs was injured otherwise why isn't McComb playing at centre? Really questioning Grix's wisdom and judgement and clearly a lack of an assistant coach. Please drop Tangata, he is in the team no matter how poor he is. Why does Fleming play one week and dropped the next? This has all the makings of Marshall's penultimate season when we dropped out of the playoffs. You cannot see any consistency in form whatsoever this year. Big game against Batley.

And let's be honest, if Sammut hadn't been sent off last week, we might have been on the losing end also. I don't see any resolve or steel in this team at all. They ed away 10+ leads today, Batley, Toulouse, couldn't see the game out against Bradford.

Leeds might be open to a new dual reg partner if the short term signings is the route you're going down now?

Maybe about a 3. It didn't start well in the warm up with Lannon getting injured but Grix logic dictated that we had a hooker as our 18th man and we had already gone in to the game with a winger on the bench who would be brought on as a second row so not the best of starts. We started okay and looked like we could score quite often but we did bomb a couple of chances before we got schooled by Liam Harris and totally out enthused by a team that played Wednesday night. It had me questioning my own logic in deciding to spend all that money to go and watch them today and I will give Batley a miss next week as I don't think it provides value for money with the talent we have in the squad serving up the same old stuff week in week out and a coach who is devoid of ideas on how to fix it.

I still see on Facebook people saying Grix is a good coach but what are they judging this on? His results? His signings? This season has been a shambles and in my opinion a good coach would have had us competing for 2nd spot with the talent we have in the squad yet we find ourselves with a realistic chance of not making the playoffs.

Opening 20 was good then after that it reverted to poor discipline and being out enthused by the opposition. Defending was poor for the most part and our confidence looks shot . Brainfarts from larroyer and tangata. Obrien played well the rest were average. I don’t think Grixs’ coaching is the problem however his man management of some players could be brought into question. Constant inconsistent changes to the squad might be what is damaging the confidence, if you’re gonna drop players to punish them for regular poor performances then at least drop the right ones starting with tangata .
