| Quote: Seth "Oh I do Jim, for coming through and surviving years of personal hell, for an amazing young family, a brilliant job and supportive people in my life. My feelings about the rhino's though are nothing to do with positivity but assessing and commenting on what's there and has been in pain sight for years, not just some blind faith.
When i see something that merits positive optimism i comment accordingly, when i see something that merits the opposite i also comment accordingly, its just how i am. I get that continual negativity is a bit tiresome but its all theres been evidence for for so long. Blind optimism in the face of the opposite is just as tiresome too though, 'insisting the sky is blue when its clearly not'.'"
I don't have blind optimism Seth, I teach post graduate critical thinking for a living.

| Quote: batleyrhino "Coming back to the topic, what we need in the first round of recruitment are a pair of Kylie Leuluai’s and a young Adrian Morley. Once we sort the pack out, the halves and backs will look better without recruitment there. If we only add three or four players in the coming off season, they all need to be starting quality forwards.'"
Ah but no Fruit on the Kylie tree this year...

Its not hypocrisy though is it when the R.S out brigade could see what was happening and were proved correct , whilst your optimism was so far from the mark along with Chris we thought you were Smith in disguise

I get accused of repeating myself, and yet almost nobody listens to what I actually say... hiding to nothing this board!

Like many on here, maybe you should go for the possibly vacant Rhinos coaching job... to be fair you couldn't be too much worse!
All entitled to opinions mate. I'm not even sure myself, I swing between thinking just a few key signings will make a huge difference, to wondering whether half the squad is actually good enough. I've been shaking my head a lot at some of the garbage dished out by this team this season. This board though could do much better dealing with each other when we have different opinions. Some can and some can't seem to.
Eseh to Hull is slightly surprising, but I guess Wigan mind him signing for Hull, well outside the play-offs, than a potential competitor. I mean that is a slightly ironic statement.

| How did Eseh go with you guys? Looking forward to seeing him play for us as rated him at Wakefield. Couple big bodies added for us - badly needed

I`m in the minority here as I thought he did ok especially with his aggression in defence.
He could have made more yards for a prop but we are not entirely blessed with good yardage makers amongst our front row with the exception of Oledzki who has little aggression in defence!!

Not impressed, personally. Good athlete, likes to try to offload, but error prone, and has a pretty low work rate

Good move for both, hopefully Smith can have a good run and then try to challenge N. McCormack for 1st backup centre (or even wing) in the off season

| Smith and McCormack should be our Centre pairing in 2-3 years time, they both need games (when not injured) and they will both come good. Max Simpson is another who will make it too if he can stay fit. We have a lot of good young backs coming through, we need to develop the young forwards like Littlewood and Gannon (is he still a kid?) so we can top that up with the British and O/S signings.

Big lad loads of potential whats not to like about the kid? Him and Martin only forwards who haven't missed due to injury from our powder puff pack.
