I do, it's very obvious so many don't watch but see what they want to see and always believe their lot is someone else's fault no matter what.
It's never ever the players fault for anything. It's an easy cop out.

So you do read replays to your posts ? , so which 2 nd tier Aussie club has 6,000+ season ticket holders who attend all their games ?

But surely the Coach watches the players too, you know, like we do!

The difference is, he can drop an under-performing player, it's his call, & therefore his head in the noose.

Either Timothy Sheens at Hull KR or Geoffrey Toovey at Bradford will be the first to be sacked, because both the owners want a rapid return to Super League in the face of the challenge from the powerful Toulouse club this year, and the hopeless prospects of beating Toronto in 2018.

Both Sheens and Toovey are untested at this level.

It is hard to see how well they will do given all the naysayers on this board.

Nobody even discusses the Championship on this board Jean


Bradford won't sack Toovey because a) they can't afford to and b) are not gunning for promotion this time. We are starting on -12 points with a threadbare squad and all set for a relegation dogfight. We won't be anywhere near the super 8s for years to come.
Rovers won't sack Sheens because they will coast through the season in one of the top two spots and his pedigree as a coach won't be properly tested until the playoffs begin in September.

ill have a guess that this could be the first season in a long time that no coach gets the bullet! only one seems at risk imo

last seasons top 4 coaches

wane-delivers trophies
smith-gets wire to finals, maybe one day they will win the big one, maybe one day there will be world peace lol
radford-seems pretty safe with pearson in charge
cunningham-a good finish always seems to get saints coach off the hook

stone at hudds seems to be given time to build
betts seems to get his widnes team to perform against all odds (see how they do without brown)
mcdermott seems untouchable at leeds so probably safe this year
powell- no pressure with the SL Champions 2017 elect this season by all accounts!
jukes-got leigh up, should be ok this season to see how his team goes
watson-marwan will want a stable season without any dramas (i hope)

two coaches who need to prove are chester at wakey, signed some good players, can he get them all to gel!

french guy-catalan dont make the 8 he could be a goner!

Juksey will be safe this season.

Newly promoted, some new players signed, players left. I think we need a few games yet to fully come out of the starting block to make any assessment.

Plus Juksey's coaching is far better than the gung-ho approach we had the season before, so yeah...he will be fine.

See you in the super 8's

The results will tell.Certainley more pressure on McDermott than Jukes.

The Red Devils Ian Watson would be the one that i would put money on getting the sack first

He who casts the first Stone.. Not proven yet.

Laurent Frayssinous. I see no reason why Catalans won't be as mentally lazy as ever. He'd be my tip.
McDermott will be ok, as will Leeds this time.
Cunningham - McManus won't sack a legend.
Clubs with less elevated expectations will stick with who they've got.
Wane, Radford and Smith have sufficient credit in the bank to sit this one out.
