Marc Herbert shouldn't be a scapegoat but Potter had a knack of bringing in young players at Saints who turned up and PLAYED. Where are all our young players? We keep turning up hoping for a Foster or a Lomax to grab a chance every week but so far they're all falling short. Has Potter lost his mojo or is the spectre of Steve "failure" McNamara clouding our season? We are a spent force in Super League end of.

Quote: Bulls4Champs2010 "Sadler got it right a few seasons ago when he claimed the Bulls were soft. Hand on heart, Ive never seen a team so soft.'"

I'm afraid I have to agree.

The whole team lacks bottle (apart from Elima who has more than Oddbins).

Koppy is getting more aggressive, but still not enough for his size. I'd love to get Big Joe in some sort of coaching capacity to show them how its done.

Quote: Bullseye "It's the losing mentality, we've got too used to it these past 3 and a bit seasons. The players seem too ready to accept defeat when things start to go against them. We're lacking some strong characters that can impose themselves on the game.'"


Before the Wire game, Potter was reported in the T&A as aying thisyou want to see grit and determination. Adversity often brings out the best in people and that’s starting to come out now.

“Their will to do better and to improve with every match is second to none and I feel the crowd appreciate that. They want to see the players give their all.

“Everyone wants to win but the first key to winning things is to put in your best every week.”'"


It would be interesting to know if he thinks they all did.

Quote: Bullseye "When I look at Hyde doing well at Wakey I wonder what's so wrong at the club that seemingly average players can do so much better away from it.'"


That's an interesting point on a number of levels. Wakey are punching way above their weight, possibly down to Kear cultivating a seige mentality. I wouldn't have been surprised if Wakey had totally capitulated & been unable to complete their season, with the ground issue also seemingly going against them. Whether the players like Hyde (who I wouldn't know from Adam) are given far more responsibility, out of necessity, than they would be if they came in to the Bulls team I don't know. But they seem to be able to take a total hammering & bounce straight back. I would expect a good coach, & I have long thought Potter is one, to be able to get far more out of a team of reasonable players then he is getting with Bradford. After the Cas game the players were eupohric & didn't show any lack of spirit or unity. The was won, however, with repetitive runs from acting half, which Cas got sucked into & coudn't deal with. Perhaps other teams have quickly worked that one out, especially more so now a number of Bulls better players are out. I have never thought Lynch a captain, good player though he is. Diskin is the obvious choice IMO, the fact he does some of the half time talk supports this. Not that I have any problem with players doing this. When I was captain I struggled to talk for a minute never mind 15.

Perhaps Mick G's rumour of a dressing room bust up came after Potter gave his analysis!

I've just watched Boots n All, and you were that bad, I honestly don't think Jesus Christ himself could solve your problems.

Changed days indeed.
