I think we’re just vulnerable to other options in Aus - if there’s something good there he’ll go back, if we’re the best game in town he might stay.
People seem to assume Rowley can just be plucked from Salford but I’m not so convinced, and I’m not convinced he’s the right coach either. Watsons star was pretty high on here for a season or two for example.
For me Arthur’s philosophy is attractive and I do think he’s our man, but that squad is so disappointing still.'"
My concern is if Ba leaves it till the end of the season and then decides to go back to Australia, we are up the creek without a paddle. Without a coach and a playing squad that is largely sub standard. It’s possibly the worst situation to be in. I Still can’t believe that we are in this dreadful position, not much prospect of a quick Turnaround either.

It would be a nightmare if we were left high and dry but surely Blease et al have considered this scenario and have planned accordingly. It must have been part of the conversation with BA and therefore others on the back of those conversations. Surely?

You would have thought so, unfortunately the track record of management decisions emanating from the club in recent years has been woeful.

For all the talk of us being years behind I think three quality forwards stops the bleeding pretty quickly. At least we'd then be in a position to assess and develop our young backs accordingly. I've got nothing against Eseh, but I wouldn't target him as part of the solution unless Sangare or Goudemand leave. Please, no projects this time.

| Any significant improvement doesn't have to take years. Hull KR finished 8th 2 seasons ago and are now top.

This exactly we seem to keep putting the power in the wrong place.

It has, and recognised as a failing, hence Blease coming in? He comes with some credentials, it's inconceivable, isn't it, that it hasn't been worked through?

| Ollie Leyland from London would be a good signing.
Not seen him have a bad game the times I`ve seen him play.
Think he`s in his early 20`s and much better than Jack Sinfield from what I`ve seen.

He should be, he's 4 years older

| If we cant get / decide against Eseh, Fenton Rodgers from Hudds could be a shout.
Got genuine size, runs it in hard and has looked pretty decent in their last cpl of outings on Sky.

This shows just how bad our recruitment of the head coaching role has been since Brian Mac left the club, and also the players that they have then signed during their head coaching role.
Our transition started after the 2015 season IMO and although we won a GF in 2017, we also had to endure 2 seasons in the "middle 8's" either side of this triumph
So our transition period is now in it's 8th year,which is absolutely ridiculous for a club with our resources
Both Leigh and Salford have been far better sides recently than we have been and that is despite them not having an academy system to feed players into their first team squad
So in reality these 2 clubs have made good head coaching choices and that they have also recruited players from rival clubs and this has enabled them to finished above us
