He should be angry. He's got to explain why his team is garbage. Meanwhile we'll hear all the usual "working hard in training/we're hurting" crud in player interviews this week.

I seriously think that as well as too many average players we have far too many who expect someone else to do something instead of taking responsibility for themselves. Some of the missed tackles are just awful efforts that full time pros should be embarrassed by.

Trent Merrin did use the word embarrassed in his interview.

I don't understand the flak Ferres is getting. He's been dependable this season, if unspectacular. He's never looked like the world-beater he was at Huddersfield, but he looks in the best shape of the 30 year old plus forwards in our squad.

I'd sooner get rid of Singleton - poor metres per carry week-in, week-out, and has never shown that he's been able to live up to the tag of pack leader since Peacock retired. Not sure if he's any better than Mullally - he's certainly not as good as Garbutt. Cuthbertson's also a forward who seems to have been kept on two years too long.

Comparing the go-forward from the pack, it's pretty clear where the weaknesses are:

Metres per carry (carries):

Oledski - 10.33 (9)
Peteru - 8.75 (16)
Donaldson - 7.89 (9)
Merrin - 7.75 (12)
Cuthbertson - 6.71 (7)
Sutcliffe - 6.20 (10)
Ferres - 6.00 (11)
Singleton - 4.67 (6)

Sounds like his mate Lam with the training went well etc etc nonsense we are currently getting at Wigan after every defeat!!

Disagree, he wasn’t happy at all and I think or hope the players are in for a tough week

This is an interesting article from the begining of Feb, Sinfield is very clear this is a long term rebuild we are going to have to temper our expectations I think for a couple of years, this is quite hard to do as we’ve obviously been quite blesses recently with the success of the team https://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/ ... -1-9577196

I reiterate, Furner is NOT the right man either now, or to bring in future generations of players, alas, I don't know who is, or who are the likeliest candidates to throw their name into the hat. I'd have Noble or Wane in a heartbeat.

Noble,ffs NEVER!
Wane,yes!

Can you give your reason for this, it seems your belief is even regardless of the last 6 games?

I’m not saying I’m convinced either way, current signs are that he’s not getting the most out of the team regardless of results, taking into account that personnel are not of the quality needed across the squad. That said, having not seen him coach I can’t have any strong opinions either way after 6 games.

Agree,six games give the guy a chance,we have too many average(at best) players.The fault lies with GH taking his eye off the ball and not replacing top class players like for like!

noble lol

Powell would be my first choice by a country mile, always has been for me. Wane would make a lot of sense for where we are right now, he's the best in the buissness at getting the young lads through, he demands and instills aggression and after learning from madge, he's the best in the british game at slowing the opposition PTB down, sumthing that has been killing us.

Not saying i want Furner out, just my opinion now the topics been brought up

I feel dirty just typing it but Wane could work wonders with this crop that's about to come through.

It's the only thing I admire about Wane. Works wonders with youth players. Any senior player injured or not pulling his weight? Fine. Time to play someone who's dying for a shot.
