When did we get so sh-t?

when we employed a coach that thinks we should be playing basketball...

I know Leeds aren't performing well so far this season, but surely it's not this bad......

Hmmm. Size 38/40. Rules out Gledhill and Adey then....

rules out most on here. except me of course

You do know it's chest size not waist size don't you Tad...

Jimmy Lowes shirt i reckon, He just getting confused in what team he was playing for at that time bless him,

He has to share is brain cell with Brian u know!!

have to say i'm a bit embarrassed with the comments from that wire poster.

Maybe the poor showing is a blessing in disguise. McDermott was always going to become coach when Mclennan left. At least with Mclennan leaving early, the subject of McDermott being a poor coach has been identified earlier before we make any major changes to the playing staff. If a new coach comes in either this year or next, at least it will be his team that will be playing week in week out and not just a case of re-signing dad's army for 2012.

What we have to be careful of is other clubs coming in and making offers for the likes of BJB, Watkins, Hardaker, Ambler, Amor, McShane, Hood et al. We should be moulding the future squad around players like Burrow, McGuire, Sinfield, Peacock etc now giving them experience so when the changes come we don't have a full squad of rookies on the field.

Last year.

If we are going to get into daft name calling,every time I do a delivery in Leeds and see the "Welcome to Leeds " sign,I always think, "You certainly are."

Hit a nerve have I? Lighten up.

Whilst born and bred in Leeds I haven't lived there for over 4 years and I am proud to be a Loiner.

Not at all bud,I don`t live in,or come from Hull.
(One bit of banter deserves another eh?)

No. The decline started last year, but it was always going to happen at some point. The fact is at the start of last season we were absolutely ravaged by injuries. At times there were 11 missing. I remember that game at wigan away when Tom Bush, Amor etc, all had to play. That put us behind the 8 ball a bit but we still recovered to finish 4th in the league. And that woeful CC cup final aside, generally they gave the big teams a really good game - see CC run and beating all the top teams in the league at least once.

I could have seen last years team, despite there being some v poor displays, going to Saints and making it a real game. Do you really see us going to the league winners in the playoffs and winning? Or beating the teams who finished 5th 1st and 2nd and get to the CC final.

Leeds record against the top 4 this season is an absolute disgrace, shipping 30 plus and often many more nealy every game. Cant see this changing. I think 7th place this year. Catalans are much better than us for a start.

Last year I thought our best performance was against Melbourne Storm in the WCC,and I came away thinking we have a good chance of winning SL again this year,and I think we would not have been far away,but for the injuries.This season is different,but we should be at least competing.
