You`ve changed your tune Brodie.
You haven't been bought off have you?
An extra bottle of jubbly during the half time festivities maybe

I’d be looking for an old fullback. I’m a massive fan of walker but I’d say his organisation of the team in defence is poor. Not that it’s all his fault, but I think he contributes to it. Give him someone to work under for a couple of seasons and he’ll be awesome.

I think if you brought in another FB Walker would walk. He has quite a high opinion of his ability and he's not going to wait around being blocked, especially not with the agent in his ears.

I don't have a problem with the younger lads learning on the job a bit, we should give them time. Walker has been rocks and diamonds a bit this year (his performance at Wigan was a shocker), but when he's on his game he's still MoM standard even with his shortcomings. Problem with him I think is that as soon as he's matured he'll be off to the NRL and leave us.

You're right that Walker has a lot of improvement left in his game - the exciting thing is how good he could be in another few years.

Again, amid all the other issues our squad has, for me Walker is way down the list.

Agree about Walker,he thinks he is better than he actually is.He his a good player who could be great but has not got Leeds at heart and would be off in a heartbeat to the NRL.

Completely disagree about Ablett & Jjb also what exactly does "doing all in their power to fix it" mean? We still need 2 props & an explosive BR. Lowes is still here & that hasnt changed either si id take the corporate soundbites with a pinch if salt until things actually do change.

Success in my opinion is built on the foundation of a pack of forwards that has aggression and actually goes forward and especially a solid defensive unit. All things we are lacking at the minute.

Yes we have some issues in the halves and the backs but until we fix the above we will be amongst the also rans.

I think we have enough go forward. Not enough to win the league but enough for now. The defence is an issue but then that’s more than just the forwards responsibility.

But I think the halves are killing us at the moment. The forwards are getting us into decent positions but the halves aren’t taking advantage of them and are killing any momentum we might generate or pressure we might place on the opposition.

Sick of the excuses, when an English player comes over to the NRL and they don’t perform, they’re out. It’s ruthless and that’s how it should be, especially if you’re getting paid the big bucks.

Actually they play reserve grade, if only.......

I’m not sure whether it’s necessary or progressive to run around in circles trying to find ever more players / club officials to blame. I have my own opinion about the mistakes that have been made, and the really poor transition from the Golden generation. But - this is sport, there are a million variables that can affect performance on the field and results.

Kev Sinfield is a smart bloke and was a very good captain. He gets it. I’m not convinced about the signings so far but the rebuild is at least another year away from being close to completion.

Talking about accountability, for me the common denominator would be GH and his famously “value orientated” ways - but then he’s also completely turned the club around from a financial farce, and delivered probably the best facilities in English RL. We have enjoyed our greatest period of success ever, in the club’s history, under his tenure.

Sinfield coming in as director of rugby is a nod to the fact that GH might have lost his touch on the playing side, but it needs time.

Players and coaches etc shouldn’t be above criticism, but I can’t stand fans booing the side, it’s an embarrassment. Support is more important when times are tough than when the side is winning silverware every year. The club will come back and thrive again but not if people withdraw that support in a sulk.

I was told when KS came in that he had had conversations and projected 2-3 years to turn around the problems that we have. So far I can see that being true. We all got excited with marque signings and ovebuilt our potential in our own beliefs and hopes of what was to come.
I have to agree that booing from the crowd is ridiculous, yes we are entitled to our opinions but booing has to be stopped. How do you think that will affect morale of those leaving the pitch, will booing make them play better next week. I dont think so

The only thing that easy to criticise Subfield for so far are some of the players re-signed. I'd say Furner has to show a bit more that he's the man capable of moving us forward.

We are in a hole but the youth system is the light at the end of the tunnel. We have a group of 16-19 year olds with the future of Leeds in their hands.

I’ve never seen a stronger pack graduating through at the same time - not sure we have a real standout like Adrian Morley but I am pretty confident that a good number of the current crop will make it to first grade.

With Oledzski and Smith already pretty much through, we have a genuinely exciting set of middles developing over the next few years. Trout, Walters, Smith is an absolutely cracking back row in prospect and with Edwards, Delaney, McConnell, Mustapha in reserve too that is extremely handy.

I see no reason why Oledzski and Holroyd won’t make the full England team in a couple or three years, and Johnson is the best hooker I’ve seen since Matt Diskin.

McLelland has a bright future and there is some skill in the back line too.

The main task the club has now is investing in this talent, providing the right culture around them and giving them opportunities. But fans need to be patient because we are still years away from this development bearing fruit in the first team.

Personally I can’t wait to see what this crop of players can do once they’ve matured.
