Agree on defending, all the chopping and changing can't help with the structure, especially out wide. But the attitude an application can improve in the middle of the park.

It's my party and I'll panic if I want to.
A bit of raw panic every now and then can be useful.

| Quote: Worlds Apart "We've played four games.
The NRL premiers, a fully-fit Warrington with a point to prove and two aways where lots of top sides come acropper.
We're also missing 8 players, including our captain and lead playmaker.
And dealing with the retirement of two of our key leaders and handing over of the stand off's shirt to someone barely out of the academy, who is himself coming back from a long term injury.
While results are disappointing they should not be surprising. We have been in much worse situations - such as 2010, where we started with a better team than won the double the previous year and had an appalling start. That year we still made the CC final and the playoff semis.
And we have a coach who has 7 trophies in 5 seasons at the club, and has a track record of turning bad early seasons into trophies.
Finally, though we haven't won the last two games have seen vast improvements in performance.
So keep calm, we will turn the corner but it will take time to climb up the table to where we should be. In the meantime, we're developing a squad and allowing the likes of Sutcliffe, Lilley, Singleton and Walters time to get used to being the main men in the team - something they'll need for years to come.'"
If No one minds I'm borrowing this for the Wire forum for those Wire fans that think those of us expecting to be in the middle 8s this year and considering the Coaches positions are getting ahead of ourselves...

I'll say right here right now we'll be the team to beat when the 2017 season starts. For all the planning you can do for the loss of those 3 legends, it's near impossible to plan to respond to that PLUS winning a treble in such emotional circumstances......ALL other teams have much more motivation for upping their games in 2016 than we do. (We had that motivation in 2015 because of the poor way 2014 finished)'"
Sorry, but I did have a giggle at this. Still feel that way? |

Ah well everyone makes wrong predictions, most on here have made many more than me through 2011-2015. |

Too true. I wasn't trying to have a go, under the circumstances, I just found it morbidly amusing! 
Btw, you are right. Can't remember exactly, but I think I had Leeds finishing 4th or 5th in my pre-season prediction this year  |

Tbf given the date (Feb 2016) I was probably expecting a little bit more to be done in the transfer market for this season. Before this season started in the prediction thread I had us 3rd and no trophies so it showed a change.

| Quote: ThePrinter "So when I've mentioned injuries before it's "an excuse"......but I suppose when you mention them it's not?'"
If it had only been Leeds you would have a point but it wasn't - the team that won the competition had as bad if not worse injury situation than Leeds. As did Castleford, as did Warrington.
For you it was one of a number of excuses for 2016 - many of which were self inflicted by the club's inability to strategically plan and cope under pressure.
Self inflicted:
The game against the Kiwis
The shorter pre-season
The inability to protect their training facilities
The inability to replace Sinfield & Peacock
Inability to react
When the flood happened it took ages to get proper training facilities
Playing injured players to get wins early
Bizarre coaching decisions
Keeping over the hill players and coach too long |

Sal, why are you dragging up old posts from 2016?
Also you've missed his point completely.

The obsession people have with my previous posts is alarming.
