And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg |

To be fair, if there was an ideal time to sack a coach mid-season, then it's probably now - Break to the next game, time for a new coach to work a little with the players.
I'd suggest the new coach would have to be available to walk into the job within the next 48 hours, mind you, otherwise it'd just be chaos.

Then if Powell has been replaced we wouldn't notice.

I already posted do Chelsea Wire sign as many players as possible in the hope they get a decent team eventually
If he`s half as good as his uncle you won`t be disappointed.

Ali lau'titi is his uncle. Cracking player, one of Leeds best superleague signings IMO.

| Lauiti'iti was a great example of a momentum signing, when a team who is already good brings in a player who completely fits in the way the team plays and separates them from other teams.
I lived up in Leeds at the time and used to go to quite a few Leeds games. They were unbelievably positive. Sinfield used to turn down easy shots at goal to tap and run penalties. Tried to offload in every situation. Lauiti'iti was probably the best offloader in the game at the time.
I remember going to a Wire game at Headingley in early 2005. We were a good team then, improving fast in our peak year under Cullen, but they completely outclassed us. Probably the best performance I've ever seen against a Wire team, including some of the great Wigan teams of the past. We couldn't tackle them! Every time we had them wrapped up the ball came out. Lauiti'iti was unbelievable for about the first 18 months after they signed him. Still a decent player after that but he was unplayable in that side when it was at its peak. They lost 2 finals that year and the year after we knocked them out of the playoffs at Headingley with a Briers drop goal, and they reined in some of the cavalier stuff after that and became more efficient and Saints-like. But those early Tony Smith Leeds teams with Lauiti'iti at his peak were something special in SL and about 10 leagues ahead of anything we have seen in Super League recently.

Super league peaked around this period. Saints in around 2003 were amazing to watch, Bradford just before and after were superb. Wigan were too, with lots of good kids in the Mike Greg team, then the Trent Barrett year. Those four clubs were pillars of the competition. Players like Lyon, Vianakolo and Barrett coming over when they were at representative level, and playing like they deserve to play representative games too.
