hardaker got up to so much trouble, lots not reported they had to get rid.
he even said himself he only had himself to blame.
cracking player I hope he regains his form, and its looking like he has.

as for McDermott, the signings have been,frankly, mediocre. mullally, ormandroyd etc. lots of the players such as walters are championship level.
others are over the hill. mcguires been a better player than most think, much more than a support player. sadly those days are long gone.

recruitment needs to be a million times better quality wise and we need a coach who can improve players and actually coach a structure and shape.

Yes - I'll give you that one.

No - Not Betts decision to let Brownie go. Board decision.

Maybe - Has anyone spoke out against Marwan and kept their job ?





No - Another board decision - blame Hetherington for that one although SL is now a lot better place now we have a tuned-in Hardaker on form.

Would that be the same Todd Carney whose arrival at Catalans led you to tip him to be the best half back in Super League?

The same Todd Carney whose mere mention in a thread prompted you to turn it into an invitational circle jerk?

Not sure you can do a solo circle jerk, bearing in mind generally the faux Frenchman's opinions are not universally shared

I'm wondering if Maguire's still a SL standard player, he doesn't seem to have delivered for a while now. As far as the first coach to be queuing outside the local job centre's concerned, I'm increasingly in the Tony Smith camp - Wire are the only SL side without a point this season so far.

That is the same man, whom it transpired, could not stop drinking alcohol to excess and damaging French bar and restaurant premises.

McGuire was excellent in our treble winning season of 2015.last year was pretty much wiped out for him through injury. Old father time is catching up with him now though he is mid 30's, and he does appear on the early evidence of this season to be coming to the end and he is not the only one in the Leeds squad right now looking that way.

You beat me to it

plus I would fire the mods for allowing him to post tripe for as long as he has.

Cunningham. I can't see how you can sack a manager who has his own statue in the town
McDermot. Leeds are always loyal to their managers.
Smith. Been too successful in recent years.

I do not foresee any change before end of season, but then my pick would be McDermot

If Cunningham doesn't get sacked it's obvious he has some dirt on McManus. I can't remember such an inept coach since McDermott in 2016-2017

The problem with both Cunningham and McDermott is that their respective clubs show them massive amounts of loyalty.

That's deserved up to a point, but in the case of McDermott I'd say he burned through all of that last year, and really needed to show much more this year. I have sympathy for him re lack of recruitment, but I wouldn't be surprised if the whole club bought into the excuse-athon of last year, and so expected McGuire to come back and run the show, Burrow to be a genuine halfback for the first time in a decade, and numerous others to 'get back to their best' when in fact they are simply either past it or never had the ability in the first place.

I could see both McDermott and/or Cunningham stepping down if results don't pick up. Less sure that it'll happen before the season's end though. In any case, the season's only 3-4 games old so both could yet pick up.
