Quote: captaincaveman "in fairness, quins looked like a very weak squad before the start of the season and were always going to struggle'"


Yup, he had the equivalent of shopping in Harrods with Aldi money...

Quote: captaincaveman "i dont necessarily think changing the coach will make too much difference. '"


He's got no plan B and to be honest plan A is looking shakey too.

Quote: captaincaveman "if this squad is what they can afford then they were never going to be at the top end of the table. maybe the expectations are too high'"


From some aye, I've thought that our objective this season was to avoid last place, we just don't have the money to do much else. The squad there needs a couple of old heads to help out the young talent that is there, mind having so many decent players out injured doesn't help.

Quote: captaincaveman "So he hasn't resigned then?'"


Not yet anyway.

Quote: Leaguefan "So they have no pride in their performance and what they can do and have to rely on being told what to do all the time?

.
Based on this and other threads I can only come to one conclusion.

If you team loses it is down to the coach and/or the match officials but never ever the players.

I must have been wrong in thinking that the players were the ones who counted. scored all the points did/did not make the tackle, knocked on/didn't knock on, caaught the ball/missed the ball and all along it was the coach and/or match officials who didi it

Don't you learn something every day
Ok, its your lucky day, you are going to learn a second thing today.

TACTICS

A coach has the responsibility to establish a game plan at the outset of a game and modify it according to the way the game is going. In the case of McDermott that is an alien concept. There are numberous examples in yesterdays game but I will just get depressed if I relive them icon_biggrin.gifEPRESSED:

PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

A coach should be responsible for ensuring that players continue to develop - yes ? I ask you this, why has the development of LMS, Melling, Clubb (all rep players), Randall gone into reverse gear. They are a shadow of the players at the start of 2009. We seem content to trot out the same line about all the London youngsters coming through, and dont get me wrong that a great thing, but we are neglecting our senior players. Their confidence looks shot and this is totally down to the coach. I suggest he has lost the dressing room.

Don't be so stupid. Players are already built with these in them when they get to SL level, and are also well aware of the tactics the team are going to use using their psychic ability.
The coach just picks who the 17 are apparently.

Coaches make no difference at all. None. Tony Smith did nothing more than Daryl Powell would have at Leeds if he'd stayed. Or Cullen at Wire. Noble is having no impact at Crusaders.

I'd suspect very strongly that a coach like Graham Murray - seemingly happiest when getting 'average' players to perform to their best regularly - could make an enormous difference to Quins, even with exactly the squad they have now.

Agreed Nathan Brown and Jon Sharp are peas in a pod.
