Some folk use a live game of sport as a way of releasing their frustrations at issues, that aren't necessarily RL related. If folk wish to let off steam in that particular way, then I haven't got a problem with it, as long as that's it and it doesn't escalate into confrontation, or violence.

Yep but ... imagine you are a young Warrington born player on the great stage and the Halliwell becomes a seething pit of hissing/booing ... not good. Or you take your son to watch his first game and you are unfortunate enough to see some "inebriated nutter" hurling abuse at his own team ... not good. I wish the person simply "releasing their frustration" would do it in some other way.

Never booed our players, but I confess to booing referees, on more than one occasion over the years................

You'd be buying anyway, so probably best to dodge the invite.

Did you never get to Wilderspool then Smify

The worst one I seen was in Orange on the 88 GB Lions tour in Australia.

Lots of Aboriginal supporters turned up to the match in 4 wheel drive trucks absolutely loaded with “tinnies”
Made The House of Pain look like Sunday School

Smiffy, have you read my post? I stated that I'm fine with booing, as long as it didn't escalate into confrontation, or violence. Your post may be misinterpreted by people thinking I'm happy with all sorts of behaviour, which I'm not. If we keep shipping 40 points in a game, then you have to expect that the crowd won't be happy, whether we believe it's a fair reaction or not. Every SL club (and championship for that matter) should have back room staff that educate players, especially those breaking through to the first team, in how to deal with crowd reactions as an ongoing process.

I think with the signings made and signings to come we can see the club realised the pack needed an overhaul, although we all knew the pack wasn't big enough pre season......

Not sure what you mean by being brainwashed? I am certainly not a yes man and will speak up if i am not happy with something.
This season has been a disaster and the club know that, i like the way they are backing Powell to make the changes and fingers crossed we see an improvement.

We were shown a new analytic way that the club are now using to target players, it was very in depth, i did ask how long they have been using this and they said from the end of last season, so lets hopefully in 12 months time be judging that a success

I really wanted the outcome of this meeting to be put out much quicker than this to be honest.
I could relay a lot of it but we as a panel ( not influenced by the club ) has decided to put it out as one statement.

Any questions you have can be directed through the panel for us to ask or you can directly message Karl, he has said he will reply to anyone honestly so long as no abuse is aimed.

Sorry actually not sorry but I fell for reading that crap so thought I would share it

I use to go these meetings, and then I stopped enough said.

The one line I will take away from those notes is the bit about 'some players are more open to critique than others'. That sounds like Daryl is hinting that he has identified some flaws and challenged certain players to do something about it, something which seems to have rattled them. I'll back Daryl on that one, since he does have a real record of improving teams and individuals.

Before this season I was in the camp of 'tweaking' things to get the best out of the squad, but if some don't want to be tweaked a little then I'm all for the 'total overhaul' approach.
