Quote: christopher "He was utterly dire today, thought fus wasn’t too bad he needs a run of games'"

Thought Fusitua did OK today. You can see it's all there athletically. Just needs to knock the rustiness off. Really poor stuff overall though. Regardless of coaching some of the lads who routinely get picked are not, and never will be, top end of SL standard. Desperately need some ruthless and clear sighted decision making re recruitment and retention.

When your bench includes Donaldson and Thompson you know you have some issues. Neither of these players is going to positively impact any game of RL. Tryers is not what is required at Elite level

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg



Agreed, we’ve signed journeymen and squad fillers for far too long, and then the ones we’ve signed to be starters have either been rash decisions or just not researched enough. We have a really poor quality squad, that needs to be ripped up and started over, and within this close season too otherwise we risk the environment that the kids will come through in.

There isn’t a single senior player over 25 years of age that I’d keep for certain. Rhyse Martin who is a decent player and very good goal kicker, should be retained if on a reasonable salary, and frankly any of the others over 25 can leave. We have more dead wood than Haworth Timber…

Quote: batleyrhino "Tetevano needs to leave, it’s just not worked, he’s on a massive wedge, and if he goes at the end of this year he will still get a contract in the NRL (Dolphins perhaps?)..

He’s symptomatic of everything wrong with the playing squad.'"

Tets a quality player. Been a disaster so far but could still come good under Smith. We have much worse players!

He’s been here a year and a half, and during that time he hasn’t had one game that justifies the salary we are paying him. He needs to leave.

If he was a quality player he's had enough time to prove it and really hasn't.

"Look, I'd never use injuries as an excuse..." Daryl Powell:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23603.jpg



In terms of recruitment I'm not convinced there's anyone in the Leeds set up who knows what a good player actually looks like.

Im not sure we do shabs, Tetevano stank the place out. Donaldson has out played him every game.

Oledski and Handley, bentley and Smith were the only players who can hold there heads high.

Handley made an absolutely fabulous break, not one person went with him, if there had been a support player we score.

OI thought Hardaker went ok

Croft, for them, was everything we have been missing halfback. Technically very smooth with the confidence and pace to go through gaps. Salfords NRL recruitment is top notch.

One of the problems on recruitment it seems Leeds are always late to the party - maybe they are good at keeping things quiet. They need to be recruiting now for next season - surely Smith knows who he wants and who he doesn't

The end of season review that Gary loves always means we are either picking over the leftovers or hoping someone falls out with their club. We need to be front foot with recruitment, but the golden era justified a lazy recruitment policy that falls down now we have such poor regular starting players.

Im not sure he will after 2 weeks and one game, this can be the issue replacing a coach mid season.

He's seen the videos too. It shouldn't take a genius. Especially where front rows concerned

What a let down, could see it coming though listening to the players interviews this week, the mentality of this squad full of jokers is pi*s poor.

Well he’s contracted for another 18/12 so we either drop him or find a way to use him better……
