| Quote: BBTB "Taking a look at our whole squad I think our struggles shouldn’t really be a surprise and they have been coming for some time. Steve Price was much maligned and some of that criticism was justified but in hindsight he probably did a pretty good job just to keep us competitive, without a decent pack leader in Hill and moments of magic from Mano and we’ve dropped right off, here’s my thoughts, for what they’re worth
I can't work out whether you're Darryl or Steve? If it's Darryl the Mata'utia comment is a genius curveball.
Joking aside, I pretty much agree with all of that.

| As an outsider I can’t see how Powell has ‘lost the dressing room’ ? The team performed poorly under Price so I can’t see it being the coach. Maybe there is one or two players who are disrupting the others ? I honestly don’t believe that professional RL players deliberately play poorly.

He’s been here for 8 games not 3 years.

| Quote: The Camels Hump "I didn’t see any arguing amongst your players, or anyone giving anyone a spray. It was all too easy for HKR to break through the middle. Can’t remember which try but it was in the first half and Clark just sort of put his head in his hand. Also, whoever got sin binned, that was criminal, penalised twice and then did it again
Zero leadership still then. They all seem top comfortable and reluctant to step up, it's just all so disappointing. When matt King showed the finger it showed that he was frustrated, only Danny walker has on occasion looked bothered recently. Widdop and Williams are marquee they really should be leading IMO, for either of them to be hiding is inexcusable, Williams makes too many silly errors like failing to find touch but at least he threatens the opposition defence. What Widdop is doing recently I have absolutely no idea.

| First of all, I am a Saint's fan coming in peace.
I can see similarities in your situation now & when Woolfe came to Saint's in 2020.
You had just handed us our ar$e 19-0 then we went on to lose to Huddersfield at home by two points & Castleford then put us to the sword at their place.
Covid came to Saint's rescue because we weren't playing for Woolfe at this point & I believe he was very very close to losing the dressing room.
IMO when James Graham came in he provided the experience & link to get them working as a team again for Woolfe.
I believe that Luke Thompson could have exactly the same impact for you guys.
Would run through brick walls & instantly command the respect of his team mates.
If you could offload a big contract ASAP anything could be possible.

Ruddy Nora a very sensible Saints supporter, I’d heard a rumour they existed but had never encountered one.

| Why would Thompson leave Aus to come to this show?

Walker is our only current player who shows any sign of being a leader, and I anticipate he would be very vocal and unafraid to let his feelings be known to other players who are not giving their best.
Over to you Daryl, allowing Hughes to retain the captaincy was a massive mistake on your part

DP sounds as lost as the players. Do you actually believe he can turn this around?

I smell a mutiny.

What, seriously?
Do you think this is a team playing to its potential?

This makes anything now possible. This afternoon, I'm going to look for a unicorn to ride in the grand national, write a letter to Santa, set up a game of twister with Natasha Raskin Sharpe, and put a bet on RD winning the Harry Sunderland trophy in October.

Tony Smith had similar problems when he came to Warrington.
He sorted it out by persuading Simon Moran to sell Martin Gleeson and dropped Lee Briers(Only to a bench role, but that was sufficient).
Once he did this, everyone else fell into line and Briers developed into the brilliant player that he could have been much earlier in his career

You might have a chance if it was an original twister with a perfect box
