Quote: paddock "Shaun Wane anyone? Never been a fan of his coaching style but pretty sure he'd get rid of some of the soft defence and lack of heart. Also has great track record of bringing through youngsters. Needs must.'"


Very much so. But it needs to be an appointment that fans will get behind. I'd like Wane personally because hes British.

Quote: rollin thunder "Well i started the post, mainly as a bit of a knee jerk reaction to the abysmal performance against Hull Kr. But the main purpose was discussion, what i wanted was improvements and results particularly defense. We are still not improving and defense is still appalling, yes we beat a very poor Huddersfield but nearly blew that, and failed to beat a injury ravaged Wakefield side again mainly due to poor defense. we have failed to win back to back league games this year. Well Hull Kr at Home then Salford away are surly must wind for Furner any less and he is surely facing the axe. Its Ok saying the squad is poor, but he has been given some big signings, bigger than the last couple Leeds coaches got. Good coaches should be able to get the best out of a poor squad and at least get than playing for one and other and showing desire, we are simply not seeing this at all. Look at Salford Ian Watson keeping an average squad well in the mix.
We need improvements and we need results sooner not later.'"


You say look at Ian Watson at Salford but he was given time.

For me getting rid of Furner now will achieve nothing, just remember people wanted rid of McDermott in his first 6 months.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



My view would be to bring in James Ford as assistant with a view to him getting the gig at the end of Furner's contract if not before if things don't well

Him

Spot on.

And getting rid of McDermott didn’t improve the on-field performances last season either.

That's because we didnt bring in a proven quality coach to replace him.

The current top two sides in SL didn't bring proven quality coaches in either. What they did was give them some time to bed in.

Steve price was sacked by the dragons in 2014 and Justin Holbrook had never had a head coaches position.

Our last coach wasn't proven either and he did OK.

Now Furner may or not work out but he has as much credentials as a lot of coaches that coach SL teams and do well.

And just to add Hull KR have the coach with the most proven quality and they have been in the bottom half of the league since he took over.

You can't, on one hand, say what a mess the club is in etc.. and then call for the sacking of the new guys only 2 or 3 months into the season.

He got until July before the infamous thread started

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=500492

Its a fun thread that one, there’s some classic posts throughout

“I don't know what 'Rhinos' fans were really expecting,you were never going to be competing with the big clubs like Wire this season”

“Should have got rid of Senior, mcguire, burrows, buderus, jjb, webb, peacock etc and spent 2 years rebuilding, and you would have been competing with a young squad in 2013..... but you stuck with players over the hill based on past exploits... and now you're stuck with old players taking up the salary cap and a hopeless coach to boot.”

Both those posts were from 2011 icon_smile.gif

Please let's have knee jerk reactions like football. Let the new team bed in and heal what's obviously going to take time to mend. We are where we are, no point dredging over the reasons why. The club have the full picture and are obviously doing what they Beleive is the correct course of action. If it is to be believed trying to sign Jake Conner and that will not be the end of recruitment.

Oh sorry we are silly. Under the real threat of disastrous relegation...joint bottom of super league. A team with 2 major marquee signings and plenty of international players in it. (Myler Watkins Ferres Singleton Ward). Talented young players.. some solid overseas players..

Furner is doing a marvellous job.. do continue..

You’re missing the point, no rhinos fan will be happy with our league position or how the team is performing.

I said before the season started that we as fans will have to be patient this was never a quick turnaround job. The club have said so, sacking Furner 11 games in will achieve nothing, bar the top few sides the table is very close and it’s difficult predicting who will beat who we could end up mid table in a few games time, I still believe we can put a run of performances together.

Careful now, you are in danger of posting something sensible and upsetting all these true fans that want a head on a spike.

I agree, this season is about rebuilding, as will next more than likely.
