He's just come back from injury and played 2 games I don't think I'd be picking him out to blame just yet. Let's get a proper coach in and see what he can do.

we got a marquee size one

I haven't seen any of the game, but I cringed when I heard Handley was at FB and Myler was in the halves. We already know these positions don't bring out the best in these players. If this was done to accommodate both Briscoes in the team it was a gamble that backfired spectacularly.

Agar brings back the experience into the team, drops the kids and we ended up being a shambles, that says it all , just about sums this game up, we were terrible in defence , and attack. Plays people out of position Leeming and Mellor a waste of a shirt

I think we are missing him, less so than Gale but still missing him

It seems Tom Briscoe is un droppable pretty much how it was when McDermott was there as stated by Handley in the Dogcast.
Agar said in his interview earlier this week that he won`t be putting square pegs in to round holes.
You would have thought that he had realised Myler was a better FB than HB and that Handley is better on the wing than FB as like Fran Cummins said Handley could never pass properly .
The dilemma would be who to put in the halves when Smith got injured which might just give Agar his reasoning for putting square pegs in round holes.
I also don`t see how Leeming gets in the England train on squad as even Dwyer is better than him.

Put the kids back in and call it a transition year. Just makes sure we beat Leigh twice.

Very dissapointed tonight, but I'll resist jumping on the Agar out bandwagon. I know there are a lot of Dywer fans on this forum and he is certainly a player with an eye for the gap, but to me that is all he is. His passing, and to a lesser extent Leemings, is schoolboy level. When people complain that the halves aren't taking control it's worth remembering that to do their job properly they have to get the ball when they want it and with some expectation that it won't be flying round their head or skidding of the deck. It's boring, basic stuff, but it wins games.

Obviously a poor performance. I think we will be OK this year but we also can’t afford complacency and a return to the post-Furner season.

Said it before but the most important aspect of this season will be our retention and recruitment for next year.

Some very miserable people on here tonight! Didn't watch it but it must hve been awful to get such hatred towards Agar considering there has generally been goodwill towards him and team in our worst injury crisis of the decade!

I'll be forgiving for one awful performance given the injury crisis, the great energy/efforts in the last few weeks, and some time to get returnees back up to speed/in the right position. But it sounds like we definitely need to work on our last tackle plays!

It’s the same after every loss on here.

Ive not seen the game and it sounds like we were awful, it will be interesting to see how the team react next week

Didn’t watch, sounds like I am lucky. Is it possible that those who have played the last two weeks were just knackered after the exertions, and those brought in were not at the races as they’ve not featured this year so far?

I thought Mellor was much improved. . On playing players out of position which ones other than Handley did also?

thats a bit logical though kr haven't been doing nothing for 2 weeks
