After all we complained last year about how boring Wigan were compared to us, would you want us to play the same way?
Buderus is the best shout so far though, though he lacks experience, you might be better asking Kev'"
What about the Walker brothers then? They get their team playing like the Jordan-era Chicago Bulls.

This Its what Powell did & never got the full credit imo.

Powell is the only coach who would interest me from these shores.If not him then we need to look overseas.

| The thing is, what coach (or player for that matter) would look at Leeds and think "yeah, I fancy that"?
Your career would have to be at a pretty low ebb to want to touch a decaying playing squad and an interfering CEO with a barge pole.

Alternatively it could be viewed as the Team that took over the Golden Gen & made the transition a success.
Even now it's a prestigous Club to play for & Coach mate.

| I think you are right in some respects, i certainly think Powell would be interested but not in these circumstances.
I do think we would be a good proposition to say, an aspiring assistant in the NRL or someone who is waiting for an opportunity, if they came in now they would know it was building for 2017.

This is true. You watch Darryl Clark, a player we should have signed years ago, waltzing through our defence and think wjy the hell would he want to come to us?'
Money, maybe, but that's the opposite of the way we built the Sinfield team, according to Kev himself.

| McDermott isn't at fault for Watkins and Hardaker suddenly going from world class to duds. Nor is he at fault for the sheer laziness of Galloway either. I'm sure he has his shortcomings as a coach but he doesn't control work ethic, that has to come from the players themselves.
I wonder who did you give the credit to when you managed to take two points of a Hull team ripping it up at the moment? You can get wins if you put everything into it but your players are giving up if they fall more than a try away and that's not a good attitude to have.

Actually I forgot about them, cant believe an NRL team didnt pick them up, I might actually prefer them to even Powell, lets start a campaign!

Not if we end up in the championship
If I was a Clark or Gale with aspirations of winning honours or silverware then the last close season would have convinced me to sign on the dotted line....looking at the rapid demise of the club now to rock bottom wooden spoonists with a real theat of relegation ....I'm no longer so sure.
We will either be the Bradford MK2 who nobody of note is now interested in joining; or Salford MK2 - or indeed Leeds of old - who can only attract players by chucking money at them (with all the "success" that brings)

Well to be honest I dont want any players who say they want to win trophies, but in actual fact want to play in a team where someone else wins it for them- look how well Sterlings done at man city, or indeed a few aussie imports did with us in the past
If a player like Gale or Clarke came I would expect them to want to make a difference, we have had plenty of player come who have been happy to ride along as someone else wins stuff for them and none were still with us last year hence the treble

At the end of the day your team have gone to the dogs. That team tonight was full of quality and should not be going down 52-18 regardless of the squad they came up against. You have enough senior players in the squad like JJB, Burrow and McGuire to have the mental toughness to hang in a game but you're playing so weak. Your team are speaking about training and morale actually being good during the week so Brian hasn't lost the dressing room. I honestly don't think it's his doing this fall from grace. You're just not working for each other like you were last year.

Getting a collection of individuals to work as a team is THE MAIN PART OF A COACH'S JOB.
