Really?
That many?
I would have thought it was far less than that. |

I heard little story from someone who was in the same box has GH at Wakefield .... He said nothing during the first half farce at Belle Vue, being increasingly redder.
Five minutes before half time, there was a cry to the effect of "Right, that's it ..." and off stormed the Sleeve.
He came back five minutes after the break looking somewhat puce ....
Allegedly.

| Quote: RoyFrancis "McDermott's credentials were never good enough to get the Leeds job however when we were at our peak with Tony Smith as the coach our defence was rock solid and I presumed McDermott was our defensive coach. The reason for this was that when McDermott left to go to London our defence was never as solid. Last years performances were about brilliant individual long distance tries but our defence was dreadful. Bringing McD in one would have thought that the first thing he would do was to sort the defence out. He appears to have totally neglected this in favour of throwing the ball about with gay abandon. When we were 10 nil up yesterday I said that I'd settle for that if we could nil them! We seemed to have several new set moves but all we did was go through them and fail to draw a man resulting in us not gaining any ground - might of well have stuck to one man rugby a la Northern.'"
As a supposed 'ex Royal Marine', I thought the first thing BMD would have given us is a bone-hard nasty defence, but given what was going on yesterday ... It was pathetic |

I'm starting to feel a bit sorry for Brian Mac
He's arrived at a club who the previous year didn't deliver a trophy, so he has the expecations carried on over to him and at the minute he has a club who arent quite clicking

Not sure it's quite taxi time just yet, but yesterdays performance was dire.
I know we only get a glimpse in to the changing room at half time so Mac could have been very unlucky two weeks running (perhaps its a Sky conspiracy against him!). Last week he was playing with a rubber glove (to be fair he probably didn't need to say too much last week) and this week it appeared to be left to Lowes to dispense the half time wisdom, which judging on the team performance was completely ineffective. The last game I saw Lowes coached team play was Quins thrashing of Wire, complete with the Matt King 'wave' to the fans and wire fans so incensed one was trying to set fire to his shirt!
Smith seemed to be a passenger for 40 minutes in the game - why did it take the coaching staff so long to realise he wasn't fit enough to be on the pitch.
At Quins Mac always had the excuse of rarely having a fully fit squad (one I was prepared to give him too) and at the moment at Leeds he's suffering a similar situation, but the personnel we had in the 17 yesterday should have been able to put in a much better performance against a team that was very low on confidence.

That is including his time with Quins.
I know when we played Wire it was 33% so I guess somehow somewhere he has improved as a coach by 3% |
