So you've got no man management and no tactics..........

NOW do you believe he's rubbish !?!?!?!?!

Hope you can find something to enjoy in what will be a long painful season for you. Maybe he'll turn things round by getting them to hit boxing bags bare knuckled until they bleed..................oh hang on he did that at Quins and nothing changed.


p.s. Keef on TV referred to Mac being on a sabatical in London, maybe his time at Leeds will be pre-retirement leave !!

He's the coach the players wanted! maybe that's a bit of the problem. Like steve mac and England(football not mcbannana)

Maybe they have just all contracted foot and mouth disease after that pre-season on the farm. A quick culling should do the trick or failing that how about a quick Cullen for Leeds Coach?

I would think that GH has only so much patience, and the style of rugby on show at Headingley is to no ones taste.

Unless there are major changes in short order, a P45 for BMD and Jimmy Lowe wouldn't surprise me.We're about to spend £10 million on ground improvements, and you need a successful team to help generate the revenue to repay this fairly significant investment, not the crap we have seen so far.

However, it begs the question....which coach would actually be tempted to come to Headingley and pick up a rather dodgy chalice?

16,034 means that BMD is not under any pressure at all. Realistically he should be given at least this season to work with the squad, but we do need to keep an eye on next year too and unless performances improve dramatically, then we may need to look for another coach for then and GH will have to admit defeat if we do.

Completely agree re-give Bri Mc at least this season.
In terms of next season should he be allowed to "sign/release" and build HIS own squad and be given the chance to coach them?
I personally would unless we get everyone fit this year and are complete and utter shiiitee which i don't think will happen btw.

If he is given the chance to build his own team expect lots of 2nd rowers who can cover in the centres and a team that plays at one speed- Enjoy him as your coach- he is long forgotten in the smoke

That is the difficulty as in a ideal world he should be given a fair chance but we need to balance that with looking for replacement. If we give him a chance till end of season and then decide we need a good coach our options will be limited.

I don't actually think it's that dodgy a chalice. If we carry on like we have thus far any coach who can bring any sort of structure would be most welcome.

A bit of a worry is I have not spoke to one quinns fan who has anything good to say about mac which is a bit worry

And I will be surprised if you do find one ! Our regret is that he didn't go sooner.

Don't get me wrong, if he is to go at the end of this season then the decision needs to be taken long before October. I have a feeling that he will stay a couple of years (Lowes will go after this year) and any "failings" will be blamed on turnover of players.

If Smith is fit next week, I'd like to see Senior dropped and Watkins and Smith in the centres, just to make the point that no matter who you are you do not get a shirt without earning it.

I agree and I hope I am proven wrong, but unless senior is unfit he won't get dropped. He needs to be but I can't see it.

It's quite sad really to see him playing how he is, hope he doesn't taint his career with staying too long

thankfully for BM agar is still in a job so therefore he isn't the worst coach in SL

I posted exactly the same last year and it does appear that whilst he's fit he gets in although i hope that when have a fit squad and he's not performing he gets dropped.
We really need the TS aproach to Barrie Mc imo and say thanks you've been a legend but it's now time for some younger legs.

He must be really bad to coach Webb into chucking out forward passes like he did yesterday!

Time Senior moved to l/f or got moved on I think (please god not to us!)
