Is Max Simpson fit yet?

Its a fans forum Jim and we're a huge club who are not performing and haven't for years. It's bound to have a lot of negativity on it. There's not a fans forum on this planet that's any different. it's human nature. There's always glass half full people and glass half empty... we've just got to not get wound up with either side of that outlook..

Don't agree with the heckling of the coach or players at the games as it makes the problem worse however on a fans forum as long as its rugby based and not personal I think its completely understandable that fans want to express their opinions on our performance and the way we play. Thats part of the game and we probably all believe their is a coach in each of us! If the performance is poor and there is complete silence thats probably just as effective in terms of sending a message upstairs! People only have so much money to spend on watching sport and the number attending will go up or down based on the quality of the product on show. Personally I have seen enough over the last 2 years to tell me that Smith will not take the club back to challenging consistently at the top end of the competition. The players have changed but we keep playing the same way and repeating the same mistakes interspersed with the odd good run. Under Smith I think we are always going to be a mid table team.
Notwithstanding that there is even less point dismissing him now as the next manager should come with a full team of their own backroom staff and a clear identity of how we want to play. They are not going to be available next week.

We won't lose but the manner of the performance and winning margin are key, as they were at Hull. As I said, these are the worst two games for RS at this time. We'll come out of this period with 4 points but RS could be under so much more pressure than before we entered it.

The negativity really is a mystery given the dynamic performances, impressive results and general signs of the team marching towards a top 4 spot. Not to mention the signings who are all vying for man of steel nomination. I'm glad our first choice 1, 6,7,9 and 13 have been fit and available every week otherwise we might have an excuse for lesser performances akin to last season, we're really reaping the benefits of this consistency in key positions...

If it's not too much bother could I have the Euro millions numbers please? Tia.

Truth is, substantially changing a team with new signings (like completely changing the spine in a season) rarely leads to instant success in British RL.

If it did, Dougie Laughton would have more trophies to show... And back then Leeds were one of the only full time professional clubs and there was no salary cap.

There are many different layers between 'absolutely crap' and 'instant success '. There's no sign of us even being near the middle of that scale.

London are possibly the worst side to grace super league. Hopefully a relatively easy run out ,might give the side chance to put in place some structure and moves together. Expect a big game from Miller . The only hope I have for the rest of the season is for Smith not to sign any new players or be involved in contracts discussions with existing players.

Standard out of context. The way I see it is the majority of Rhinos fans desperately want the team to do well however at present performance on field is quite frankly baffling the forwards get bullied and the backs look like they just met before the game, Brodie Croft is quality and man of Steel to prove it but at the minute he looks lost,then we have players getting injured left right and centre something isn't right and someone is responsible for all of the above,as one poster said there is Morons spreading Cancer at the club on the terraces I think maybe they got into the changing rooms aswell!

It’s funny, nearly all the discourse around struggling coaches will be that they need results.

But Smith needs performances, there needs to be something in the performances that shows progress.

At the moment Leeds fans are being zombified by the performances.

Tbf I don’t think the two are mutually exclusive, especially this week. Squeaking past London for a result shouldn’t be enough. There needs to be a massive uptick in performance to go with it.
