Really? Are you watching any Rugby at present? You keep banging on about the coach being the most important role at the club as if it's some fundamental truth. I couldn't disagree more. The most important people are the ones who take the field and actually play the game, always. Coaches aren't wizards. Our current playing staff (certainly todays) just doesn't measure up. That's far and away the biggest problem we have, and hopefully we'll take some big strides in that direction in the coming weeks. If we get some real quality and Smith can't get results he'll be judged accordingly. Until then patience is required.

| When some Wigan fans I've known for a while come into my work and tell me it was a waste of money going to the game and watching that precession it speaks volumes. It feks me off (and I dare say a lot of others) when I think back to how many classics we've had with Wigan in a bygone era and it has now turned to this. I've no love loss for Rohan, I doubt things will improve next season either. Mid
-table obscurity beckons again. Sorry, can't see any positives even with our signings.

| It was very hot and tempers flare easily.
We have all also had a lot of frustration this year and frustrating performances. And that’s off the back of years of underperformance from Leeds.
But it’s not right to take it out on the players. They try their best. We have some cavalry on the horizon and more to come - hopefully RS has as much say in who as possible.
A 50-0 spanking at home by the auld enemy is terrible. But… we move on. I do think next year will be better.

Did he say that when we spanked them with 12 men earlier in the year?

Great idea. let's sign world class players and get wetherby bulldogs coach as the coach doesn't matter.
and let's judge smith on a full season. this season and his abject pre season.

| This is how far we are behind.
50-0
A bang average Goon side has just walloped us into next week.
Completely unacceptable but will be passed off as a fluke.
We have truly and completely phoned it in.a terrifyingly e capitulation.

| Agree don't take it out on the players you support through thick and thin. I don't think we lack effort as have been in games all season but lost most of them!
We have no leaders in the team and any recruitment needs to address this. We need a top class player who is also a leader in one of the spine positions. I don't care which but that should be what we are paying marquee for whether it is a half a prop or a hooker. Cam Smith long term has the potential but we need a Buderus / Peacock level signing that can walk in and claim immediate respect.

They’re not bang average at all.

| Back to my original question.
Does anyone have the 21 man squad for last years semifinal and GF and is able to compare it to our strongest 21 man squad this season?
I`m interested to see how it compares.
