I know feck all about coaching a Rugby League team. I'll leave it to the team at Headingley to decide if we need additions to the squad. I'm pretty confident they'll do what's right. Coaches and CEO's rarely make knee jerk reactions or listen to fans. 3 titles in 5 years wasn't a result of taking polls in the South Stand.

As the greatest RL coach once said..

“If you start listening to the fans you’ll end up sitting with them!"

I was. And as far as I am concerned that was the laziest, poorest execution, that I have seen in his time. I would like to know which one he thought we did a worse performance.

Ouch...but the point is we managed (just) with a patched up set of threequarters and nearly a year later it's still not sorted

Point remains we have lost two internationals and not replaced either

I think we miss ellis more than we think

When that's the best thing you can think of to say, you've hit a new low IMO.

surely the low of poorer performace was lower

thought it was a ridiculous thing to say personally and not good enough

if he was asked the question..

"was that the worst performance you have seen since taking over as head coach?"

Then it is a suitable answer, however i don't imagine it was..

I think you could do with a utility back. With Smith off to Wasps, I don't think Gibson is good enough or Watkins is ready to play super league week-in week-out.

You're spot on with that post.

Gibson has had chance after chance and failed to really show anything spectacular, he's a steady player but he's just not good enough to play week in week out in a supposed champion side.

Watkins is a very big talent, and he is going to be something special, but at the present moment he isn't ready for Super League week in week out, and is prone to making a lot of errors.

i agree we seem to be lacking something in defence since he has gone and he filled in at centre last year at times and he did a good job
