So you and me are in agreement then?   |

Those players likely to be selected for internationals are your very best players - because of their quality the hardest players to replace? Yorkshire lost 7 players to international calls in 2015
Cricket is immune from injuries - 2015 saw a number of injuries to key players - add to that Gale's suspension
Great coaches deal with adversity they don't throw the towel in the minute they hit a bit of hardship - they get on with it and maintain standards given the options they have. |

A typical reply from you I will ignore half the points raised because they make me look bad - you are a joke. |

His players generally are perceived to perform to their maximum, he appears able to give them a structure to utilise their abilities and to get the best out of them. Why can't Brian?'"
Bang on ....Powell is a brilliant coach best signing Cas have made in recent years |

Please tell me that's sarcasm. A great year for Cas would be top 4 - they'll never win anything, they'll struggle even to fluke a Challenge Cup win. We're having a shocker this year but we'll be back near/at the top in a couple of seasons, so if Powell wants silverware there aren't many better places to go.
On this subject (and seeing as we've been stopped from talking about one rumour tonight...  ) has anyone else heard talk of Dave Furner coming to us as head coach? |

Is your arrogance not tempered just a little by the sorry scary plummeting state of our predicament?

Confidence, not arrogance. We'll be Middle 8's this season but we can stay up, and then we'll build over the next couple of seasons. I reserve my right to be a 'glass half full' type of chap... |

Good luck with that two year forecast.
Nothing worthwhile coming through the academy, at least a dozen players that will need replacing along with a tiny salary cap still set at 1999 levels.
It'll be a cakewalk for the best run club in SL  |
