He can run a clever line or two - we don't have too many who do that well.

If we go into next year with the squad as it is now and the same coaching setup I can't see anything other than mid-table mediocrity. Its all very well players and coaches talking about working hard and the like, but that's what they were saying after every dire performance this year.

It would be worse than mid table IMO. I just hope what I was hearing yesterday is totally wrong, as there was a thread on here quite a while ago about us repeating the bulls which got laughed at. Not sure if that bad, but there is some desperation at the moment up top at the club, if these comments are true.

Desperation in terms of what? If its at the very top of the club (i.e. GH) then its his job to make changes. Unless he's hamstrung due to the building works, which I could understand if they were open about it.

if it's a money issue someone wants sacking. given the attendances, prize money, sponsorship etc over the last few years. it's hardly been spent on the players.
last season should have given the top people a kick up the , as that's what happens when you let a squad get old and stale

The rhinos have become very admin/support heavy - the sheer number of people involved in running the club and the coaching/conditioning set up is huge - this is a £10m business after all not Unilever.

Huge difference between us & the Odsal pretenders we make a profit on a regular basis.
Make 2/3 signings & hopefully clear out this Coaching set up we are back as top 4 challengers imo.

The Bulls not owning their own ground is ultimately what brought them down. Similar to YCCC but the Bulls did not have a benefactor like Graves to save them.
(So far!!)

Oh look, he's off again

Going with what we have, minus Hardaker. No surprise there then.

A cheap HB will be signed. Lui, Wood or Soward or

GH can hardly trot out his pre-season spiel from the last decade "We have the best squad ever at Leeds, and we believe we are well placed to win more trophies because of it" or whatever if we don't shake the squad up more. Otherwise the truth would be "Last year was a disaster. Hopefully the senior players have finished their year-long holiday and are ready to aim for 8th".

Its October, calm down

Any signing wouldn't train until december or Jan if they were an international so there isn't a huge rush

I just hope what I heard the other day isn't true, otherwise it will change the very fabric of our existence and cause a complete breakdown of societal structure the like of which destroyed civilizations thousands of years ago.
