Probably not, I don’t care about point scoring against people on the internet.
I’ll put my point across which is generally a positive spin, as that my general outlook on life. If you don’t think there was any positive potential at the start of the season that’s fine, would be boring if we all had the same opinions

| I think the bigger picture for Friday is we can’t have another pathetic half ar$ed showing from Leeds on such an occasion. Rohan needs to be gone, as we need a team playing with heart and passion on Friday in memory of Burrow.

| But just remember the players are human and things like what’s happened to Rob will affect people in different ways. That’s not me making excuses in advance or for yesterday, I’m just pointing out it’s easy to judge from the sidelines when the reality of these situations aren’t always clear cut.
I didn’t particularly think yesterday’s performance was half d it just wasn’t good. Mik for example was trying too hard, look at his stats!

| Another 2 weeks to prep, refresh and refocus and yet again we turn in a clueless disasterclass.
I don’t even know why I’m actually surprised, we’ve been dire pretty much all season, all the early season optimism has evaporated as the same lazy, shortcut vibes rugby yet again proves to be our undoing. Not one player in that team is looking or playing to their potential as it’s just an unstructured joke of a system.
This Friday is all about Rob and despite seething on that travesty yesterday we need to park this for one game, circle the wagons and come together for the great man.
There was a terrible atmosphere at that game yesterday, some very strange people who I’ve never seen at Rhinos games before at the centre of most the unpleasantness. I understand that we differ on opinions etc but turning on each other isn’t the way to go.
Friday is all about Rob & the Burrow family period.

| The last two games at Hull have turned really toxic. We won the first game and lost the other by one try.
A few round me (the more mature end of the market in age…) were getting annoyed again, saying it’s not helping.
Just left bemused about whether some of our play, or the fickle angry mob of a fan base were more embarrassing.

| There were some weird scenes on Saturday and it looked to me like quite a few were tanked up but people have a right to call for Smith to be sacked.
In terms of embarrassing behaviour I think at least one of our players deliberately dialled it in on Saturday . I reckon 2 did but 1 of them was less obvious.
I won’t name them but when Smith goes , they both need a Scarborough warning from the new coach.
On that front I’d have Wane as first choice as new coach , he may not want it but most of this team need a strong coach who tells them what he wants and takes no Sh1t

| I’m not a fan of unfettered “rights” but that’s a conversation we’ve seen before.
I wouldn’t mind Wane too much to be honest, but I’d prefer Arthur if RS goes. Arthur seemed very popular and we’re going to need some personal collateral to get some key NRL signings over the line IMO. We also have a young squad and I think an older mentor figure will work better than a younger coach.
RS looks to have taken on the Leeds job a little too soon in his development to me.

Id much prefer Brad Arthur over Wane. I think he'd be a better fit for us.
I reckon Smith will actually go on to do well somewhere in the future, which is why I don’t like the whole ‘fraud’ thing

Not sure I know what “unfettered” rights are but calling for a coach to be sacked is just freedom of speech to me, especially when IMO he should have been removed with GH last year.
Anyway, I agree we need an older experienced coach who is a good man manager. My lad wants it to be Brad Arthur as well.
Personally, I don’t, I think he is a good coach but I think we need a coach players fear and respect more than he brings. But that is just my view from a long distance

Arthur has to be in the Leeds thought process you would think yes.
I don’t take any pleasure out of saying that RS looks boxed into a corner. I expected us to win against Hull quite well with the side we had… too many now out of form or not up to standard.

Doesn’t RS have a right to do a tough job without mobs baying for his head? Or other fans have rights to attend games without a beered up gang acting and chanting aggressively? I take my 5 year old, what about his rights to feel safe?
One person’s rights often infringe on another’s (e.g. right to protest) - how about we consider the impact of our actions on other people? Maybe have manners?

I disagree completely with the beered up mob having a go at each other but it’s a game of rugby league . Paying fans have a right to call for a coach to go , I think if people want to shout we want Rohan out that’s fair enough.
I also completely disagree with personal abuse on social media.
On Smith I agree with what Arthur saidI’m sure he has done his best and done it his way but like a boxer on the ropes he needs saving from further punishment.

| I'd be amazed if Brad Arthur left Aus. He'll just bide his time for a top job in Aus. Think Leeds would/should be looking at top assistants, someone like Josh Hannay or Dean Young
