Not just Leeds fans with egg on their faces

I've read the whole thread and hindsight is a wonderful thing. Thought there'd be more embarrassing comments from me as I have been critical if coaches and players over the last 2 years, but I must have reserved them for more obscure threads



I did confess my love for TVOC though, even if he has become a lit more negative recently.

I have never argued against the rights of contributors to be critical athough I confess to have less patience with those that display a permanent negative attitude. You do not need a coaches badge to have good rugby acumen. But the comments that I am against are the ones that show little understanding of the coaches role and are made in real ignorance of his true contributions. To call for McDermott to be sacked when the players are clearly out of form shows ignorance and impatience. When this call is repeated after last years finish shows stubborness and a closed mind.

You have been consistent in your defence of the players against some of the "clueless" postings and I have also done that too.

Prefer glass coffee tables?

I'll give you credit, from very early in 2011 you were supportive of BMD, even away from the board. You were right.

Also, you looked even better out of the hotpants sweet cheeks.

How was hardaker handled well?

If webb had played a self disciplined game @ wakefield instead of displaying his worst traits seemed like he'd have been back in the side & zak doing f.a at left centre

Not sure I understand.

Wood ones have a nice feel but I suppose glass is easy to clean as long as shatterproof glass.

I find it hard to converse with you without picking my nose and pretending IO am Douggie.

When Webb was out of the team Mc could easily have gone for Bjb who has played most of his acadamy career there or even called up the "in form" Watson from the U20's but gave it to ZH.
Then when Webb returned and didn't regain form he was quick enough to trust ZH once again with the no1 shirt.
As for doing "f.a" at LC he was tearing teams up and making plenty of yards in a completely new position and still very raw at SL level what did you expect Meninga ,Senior or Gasnier??
Also before you mention what little quality ball Hall received check back and see when it was actually on or our backs got decent enough ball to feed our wingers.

Ah, my old mate Douglas.

Was only saying the in the pub other day that Dougie could always spot a future club legend. Good day that, having a couple of beers with Marcus Vass, Jim Leatham and Lorenzo Marquez-Laynez.

Thanks. A certain Southstander regular had a real pop (twice) at that post on page 7, apparantly it confirmed I was clueless. It made me laugh at the time and it still makes me laugh at the absolute conviction that person constantly has despite being proved wrong again and again and again. He's still unable to predict sex in a brothel.

This is a bit of a myth. Hardaker is a fantastic talent, but he had plenty of opportunities to feed Hall when he was at LC and passed on most of them. I'm sure much of that was down to his lack of experience in the role, and partly his natural instinct to take the defence on himself, but his distribution to his left side is poor, as evidenced by his pass into the stand at the DW 2 weeks back.
