We need GH to put his hand in his pocket and sign someone decent rather than Aussies that are past it!

Quote: William Eve "A lot of fans are of the opinion that the first crucial step towards Leeds turning the corner from this bewildering slump is to replace the current coach. I have some sympathy for that opinion.

However, replacing the current coach isn't the first crucial step. Getting rid of the Serial Miscreant is. The negatives he now brings to the club far outweigh any positives. It was only a matter of time and I'm surprised it's taken this long to finally register.'"


Sadly I too have to agree: he has been found wanting this season.

As for Sutcliffe to centre...he has been tried there and was far from impressive; ditto at FB. Watkins has also been tried at FB and although inconsistently good on attack he was pretty poor on defence. Golding is simply too lightweight.

I guess Watkins is worth another run at FB. To fill the centre spot (with the return of Briscoe and Hall) I would be more inclined to try Handley there rather than Sutcliffe.

Keinhorst IMO is a better second rower.

Don't worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older, it will avoid you! - Winston Churchill:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40515.jpg



Quote: Gotcha "Having racked my brains, I do recall you saying about 2nd row, but not centre. But whatever, if you say you did then so be it. But really Juan Cornetto has actually consistently said centre, which makes me chuckle at him now offering fullback, as Sutcliffe has also been tried there and absolute 5h1te is the result.'"


I still think centre would be his best position but offered fullback as an alternative. I actually would prefer to move Watkins to fullback where I think he would regain his attacking flair with the extra space and I have said this previously on several occassions

But it doesn't appear the coach sees it that way although I'm sure you're both still right.

Hardaker is still Leeds' best known option at full-back and as you never used to tire of telling the board the best way to regain form is to keep playing in 1st grade.

Our problems run much deeper than Hardaker/Watkins non exsistent form imo once again we are in the game then melt away on the back of conceding poor penalties & shocking defending
It may well be that certain players want out but the clear out should include all the Coaches/Staff imo because its obvious whatever they are instructing its getting ignored/nowhere near working.
