And the fact that they almost constantly exceed expectation and we are way below expectation points to good signs.

Ultimately, this seems a long term appointment, you don't sack a DOR unless they have put years worth of bad coaches in place, not just one or two appointments.

I think it's much healthier that he's no loyalty to Smith. He loosely said he would support the coaching staff in the presser, but from the tone and body language, and the fact RS wasn't there speaks volumes.

Not expecting a change before the end of the season, but I'm almost certain we'll have a new coach next year.

One interesting part that he mentioned was repairing Salford's public image to the overseas market. Wonder if we need a similar thing.

I like the pod. Win, lose or draw, it's always a good listen. I didn't mind the 'forthright' nature of the last podcast. Part of the attraction of fan media is that it's often unfiltered, but I appreciate that if you want to attract sponsorships, then you have to keep it PG.

Although, I would suggest maybe changing the name so it references Leeds rhinos or rugby league. That may help with the algorithm

I know you get it Chris you're a good chap.

Hello!

We've asked for more access to the players and staff for our content. Which we hope comes to fruition soon enough. Like Chris said - the club have had a lot on this year - and a podcast asking for some access to players is absolutely one of the items at the very bottom of their list!

As for the recent podcast - absolutely 100% on me as much as Mark - I should have stepped in and asked for the personal abuse to stop. Some enjoyed the unfiltered podcast, some didn't, we removed it anyway and we will learn from it, grow, and promise it won't happen again.

We've all had a pretty emotional time of it recently. And recording on the day of the game, only hours afterwards, was not a good idea.

What I will say is, we love doing what we do, we love having different opinions on our platform. And we are constantly thinking of new ways to improve and make our platform look and sound better.

We've listened to all feedback, good and bad, and have taken it on board.

This recent podcast was an abnormality. Anyone that has listened to us before would recognise that.

Keep up the good work Eddy, the Lot pod is a good listen, especially when cutting the grass or washing the car…

Well done Eddy. Very well said and no doubt the podcast will go from strength to strength
