Quote: Ste100Centurions "Most likely in my opinion is that the players were of a much higher standard than the Head Coach, a Head Coach who really for all intent & purpose was an Assistant Coach to KC & they did not like or want to play for those 2 in the way they were being forced to, of course I could be way off the mark but somehow I think not.'"


Pretty much sums it up. Wonder how Jukes feels now seeing the Catalans Dragons 6 and 7 (squad # 6 and 33) in a Challenge Cup final. What a missed opportunity with these 2.

Quote: Harry Stottle "Alan I was well aware of what you meant by the clubs reputation, cynically I took the opportunity to express my feelings, it really hurts to see where we are and considering where we should be with a wage bill of £1.68 M.
I agree with everthing else you penned, and yes the info of those contracts comes from a source who would be privvy to that information, no need to doubt him.'"


Not cynically Harry - maybe realistically, eh? icon_wink.gif Just to think, when we signed these players, our owner was saying that he couldn't believe how KC had snapped them up at the price he paid. Being naive, I thought he meant we had got them at a bargain price!!

I don't know about you, but I feel gutted at the opportunity we were given, by the other SL clubs, and have blown it? We've been there before, but it seems even more painful this time! icon_sad.gif

Alan, you could put a thoroughbred in a race of Donkeys, but if he refused to run he wouldn't win

Craig Hall, Jordan Thompson, Pete Mata'utia all very good signings & doing very well elsewhere, add to that Ben Crooks, James Clare & Bryson Goodwin *who the club/Derek should have moved heaven & earth to keep* I hope Brysons price was high, Ryan Hampshire doing well at Wakey + Samisoni Langi & Josh Drinkwater at Catalans, all lost or let go at various points.

We had a very good squad in both 2017 & 2018 barr the odd filler, what we lacked is a proven top level coach that the squad believed in & respected.

Edit.

We never really got to see the best of Pat Vai-Vai or anything much at all of Kyle Lovett who rarely got selected.

Saints' coach Justin Holbrook, recently commented on the ridiculous situation where players who are responsible for bringing a club to its knees, were then promoted, en masse, to Super League. I wonder who/what he was talking about? icon_wink.gif

No need to doubt who? I'm sure a few are questioning that at present.
