Well, I finally found the time to watch the video clip.
All it tells me is that ..
a) McDermott prizes performance above all. (and that's fine by me)
b) McDermott isn't the world's most articulate in front of a camera. (and that's of no concern to me).
I still don't like what I believe to be his coaching ... but that video doesn't change my view one way or the other.

I also will be at Wigan tonight hoping Leeds win, but imo McDermott is not cut out for the job, It's time for him and is muppet of a sidekick Lowes go. I am not a Glory Supporter but someone who as followed Leeds since I was 8 years old (30 years ago) and will do till the day i die. |

| Quote: Remarkable_Rhinos "I'm actually, genuinely, hoping we get thumped on Friday.
If we manage to scrape a win, it would be solely down to the players playing their hearts out, and probably a few lucky calls, and nothing to do with McDermott's coaching ability. Were we to win, it would simply paper over any cracks and give McDermott a few more weeks/months grace. Losing is better in the long term.
As much as I'd love to beat Wigan, it would be short term satisfaction, and we'd wake up Saturday morning with McDermott still in charge. A heavy loss is the better result for the good of the team.
Deadly serious.'"
I think even after a heavy defeat we would still wake up sat with Mcdermott in charge. |

Ablett was a standout player against bulls for us, but prefer him in the pack. On the line up above seems bizarre havin sinfield at scrum half and mags standoff!!

Is it official that sports 'fans' are just that and just like to play fantasy rugby. People really have been clutching at straws with regards to what McDermott says or does.

[i'We are not going to Wigan looking for a win...'[/i
He's good aint he - this McMuppet chap?
He said we weren't looking to win and he was right.
I think all you doubters should take a long hard look in the mirror.

This comment was a little foolhardy, but clearly not what he meant. The point was that we are not looking at the scoreboard, we are looking at the performance, and if we perform to our potential, then we can't ask for any more regardless of the result.
Storm in a teapot, but typical of BMD in a media facing situation.
