Humans, male/MALE16.JPG The past is full of regrets
The future of unknowns
We must live in the present.:Humans, male/MALE16.JPG |

| I promised myself in the interest of sanity that I wouldn't get involved with foolish short term thinkers who would't know reality if it bit them, however I am biting.
RS is not a god, he is unproven.like everyone else in life he is not perfect,
The fools and idiots who are unrealistically criticising want to recognise there mouth is bigger than there brain, reading this forum it is apparent some are so biased and delusional totally unaware of the lies and disinformation they post,
Without going into detail regarding those "Who Knew" Frawley was going to be a flop,that Holroyd,Fusitua,Newman, MoMo,Bently were going to be injured, How?? Crystal ball. seeing the future tell me how ??
RS cant coach a Miller.Oledski,Croft because we are below mid table + is that proof.
RS cant coach because Lumb, Roberts.Sinfield and Edgell all would have made decent starts for the senior team regardless of who has guided there career for the last Two years !!
Some people want it all one way and can't see anything beyond the last half of a game.
But the main reason some want calling out for wanting RS sacked/moved on is a total Sham------- We havent won anything recently, Someone else would surely do better
THE LAST TIME I LOOKED ONLY TWO COACHES IN SUPERLEAGUE HAD WON ANY THING
Peet who has done well but has had the good fortune to go to one of the leading side is British rugby, Lam who again did well guiding Leigh to a challenge cup success, how ever he was let go as Wigans coach prior.
RS has not set the scene alight, the odds of finding some one who will, are pretty damned slim.
To appease the naysayers, I have just popped down the local supermarket, first had a look for a big enforcer prop, non in stock, tried a strong running tackle busting 2nd rower, "may get some in in November" said the assistant.
Finally looked for a winning coach with all the credentials, tactician.man manager, skillfull cap manipulator and the ability to win the comp year in year out,
We haven't had that product here since 1895 said the manager,
Good luck and good day.

| You need to underpin that brand of "eyes up / play what you see / off the cuff" rugby league with some actual structure.
You cant just lob the ball around like a grenade with zero respect for your position on the field and before earning the right to play, its moronic.
Without structure when the chips are down you can fall back onto good line speed, hard tackling and even the 5 drives and a kick to clear your lines, we dont want to do any of that, we dont want to move up and tackle, we dont want to string together sets, we just want to chuck the ball around regardless of field position real dumb rugby.
When it inevitably fails like it has done multiple times over two seasons weve nothing solid to fall back on, players get frustrated, lose concentration and start making more and more basic mistakes or even wilder risker plays to make up the shortfall. I agree theres certainly a player issue that weve had to deal with constant squad injuries and disruption that also havent helped, but the coach sets the tone and the players take the lead.

| Surely the coach should be able to coach the players to do the basics under pressure and ensure the players are fit and have the right attitude. It seems on all these fronts Smith has failed.
I agree injuries are disruptive but why do we get so many are the players fit enough to withstand the rigours of elite football? Players should be able to tackle, pass and catch - Roberts drops the high ball more than he catches it - that is a core skill coaching issue. Short drop outs - again who suggested this?
Attacking structure and attacking plays - surely that is a coaching issues - allowing the attackers to come to you - again that is a coaching decision. Yes the players should do better but the coach needs to provide a platform for that to happen.

| Quote: Shabino "There are glimpses of how Rohan wants to play, and it’s exciting. However the current bunch are not good enough to implement it. Needs at least 3 quality signings imho…..'"
Wigan's team would struggle with this God awful system Rohan 'coaches' cos it's destined to fail.

| Wigan's team might feel under more pressure if their own fans started chanting "get out of our club" and booing the players on the field?
People here who seem to think bollocking people is the way forward and getting on their back, have you seen players like Roberts and Frawley respond to this from you all?
Bevan French would probably love RS - then again Wigan have a pack who can lay a platform unlike ours at the minute.

It shouldn't matter which back position u play in, catching a ball is a basic skill that it taught at U7 level.. these guys are prodessional sports people... if u can;t catch then u practice until u can.. simple.. a bit like kicking a ball, u practice until it;s second nature.
