Quote ="TheButcher"I think you miss the point most are making. That point being that we just don't know how we'll get on, so a sweeping prediction either way, based on nothing, is a bit worthless. Once the season's underway and we're getting bummed every week, your point will be based on the evidence and so have validity. All you can do is wait and see, and while you may be somewhat correct in that the bigger established sides dominate over a season, any SL team can beat any other on the day. Look at what Cas has achieved to see that mediocre teams if coached right with the right players can raise their profile in the sport.
You're also not being that constructive with your criticism. You're just ranting at this point, and when that happens any valid points you may have are swallowed-up by the emotional outbursts.'"
Fair comment. I'm just so underwhelmed with the recruitment drive to be honest. I'm sick of hearing Tim's creating this Team spirit yet he's only chosen BMM, Lui, Vidot and Carney himself, the rest of the signings have IW's judgement all over them which worries the living daylights out of me. I remember Moz telling me team spirit was awesome under Noble so its in every coaches best interests to install it. I was also bemused with Watson's appointment of head coach, fair enough give him a role with him being a local lad but giving him the reigns of head coach was shortsighted for me. A few ex players have this opinion too.
Team spirit is paramount in any team sport i know with Castleford being a great example but they had young hard local Castleford lads in their favour and Powell recruited well, we haven't on both fronts.
