Like most on here I'm extremely dissapointed at the moment.

As for Sacking Mcrea though. Can the club really afford to sack him, how many of the previous coaches are we still paying off ? I've been a fan for 20 years, Kevin Tamati was in charge since then every manager has got sacked, and it's the same story, a new bloke comes in complains about inherting a squad, sacks a load of the players brings in new players, they dont perform so the manager gets sacked and we're back where we started.

Also why was Mcrea given a four & 1/2 year deal, he took us over as were were already doomed 1/2 a year. That gave him 4 years to build, so he banked on getting us back into superleague, which he did. so he's got 3 years left I think he knew when he signed we'd struggle back and to cover himself he wanted a long contract.

Based on this I've been prepared to stick by him and let him see the job out, for one thing the club need a bit of stability. But as the weeks go on i'm getting more and more frustrated.

Assuming we can't afford to sack him, & he leaves by mutual consent and because no one is available, what about letting Naylor and Hunte have a go at first team coaching, or as a last resort lets try and tempt Cullen away from Widnes.

Rant over.

Quote: Dawson "Can I ask what you expected to happen this season?

And even if you got rid of McRae who would you get in.'"


I expect Effort in games & to be competing not getting tonked every week, the style of rugby is boring and was last year under McRae, he has admitted he doesn't have a clue how to sort it out and on Sunday buggerd Paul whites season up by playing a half injured player. His signings in the off season have bin nothing short of shambolic and i can honestly say this is the worse than the team that consisted of the likes of mark corvo etc.

I watched our highlights on boots n all last night and White was practically hopping round the field, to send him out there like that was disgusting, calculated gamble my foot.

He didn't seem to be hobbling when he scored his try.

He wasn't sent out out there like that, he received a big hit which injured him.

It probably was too early to return to first team but he'd come through at least one reserve fixture OK and given the injury problems and lack of quality we've got in the three-quarters I can understand why they decided to rush him back. Especially as wingers don't tend to get smashed in tackles as much as centres and forwards. Clearly wasn't a gamble that paid off though!

Please forgive my ignorance, are Salford spending anywhere near the salary cap, if you were then I would expect to see some strong strides forward.

I saw Castelford play twice last year (as a Warrington fan) and I was impressed by the way they attacked and chucked the ball about but they would have still been relegated if the system hadn't changed.

Promoted teams seem to normally only win 2 or 3 games

I think you will find only Leigh had that record, last year Cas won 7, but I will let you off because you are new to Rugby League, ever heard of Wilderspool?
