I don't think you can put the blame on one in particular, yes the coach needs to set a good game plane, set pieces etc but once they step on the pitch the players need to perform and not a lot more the coach can do other than the half tim talk!!

We need t face facts the team has been put together for the future we are not in the postion were we can expect to beat most teams like a few years ago, we have average players who at the minute are playing badly!

Didnt go today (obviously).............but the thing that I`ve noticed so far is that all the oposition teams are doing is feeding of our mistakes. This is what as cost us the games that we`ve lost and the points we`ve conceded when we have won.
We have a team of young local lads who will come good given time.........after all we are building for the future....give the lads time cos we aint far off the mark, and with the addition of a couple experianced players we will come good later in the season.

Stewart, Watson, Donlan, Hobson, Alstead, Madden, icon_rolleyes.gif young?

The others aren't young in rugby terms - 17/18yrs old are youngsters but ours are a couple of years older - they will not get much better now.

A few maybe eg Morty but those that do will be snapped up by SL or better Championship sides. Let's not kid ourselves.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg

...in Championship 1. In all honesty if we continue like this thats where we will end up.

You can always tell a smart ar$e but you can't tell em much.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16267.jpg



Maybe we need a younger coach with fresher more up to date ideas. I've nothing against NK but I feel our style of rugby is very stale & predictable.

I think the problem lies at the Top ,many of the fans,myself included saw Mr Thomas as the great white knight, but it has not happened ,i feel we need new Directors,with go forward ,ideas ,we have have a good stadium ,decent fans ,and i hope we are not made laughing stock ,on thursday ,we could go into freefall now,we are goinglong periods without scoring ,we are devoid of ideas .

we have a fantastic stadium and we have the team we can afford.
no individual club director or chairman is going to throw money into a bottomless pit.
if the fans turn up and put cash into the club, we will have a more successful team.

there is nothing wrong with the coach.

Yet 2 weeks ago when we beat Widnes away we were 'on the right path' and everything was rosy. Were Widnes that bad then? We have to face facts, we don't have the money to spend on better players. I'm as frustrated as everyone. As for new investment, in the current climate thats very unlikely to happen. We have to persevere with youth and maybe pick up one or two players along the way if we can. Sacking NK is not the answer, besides that would cost us money we can ill afford to waste.

Quote: Leigh24.7 "Stewart, Watson, Donlan, Hobson, Alstead, Madden,
Well that really is where the problem is, you have to be congratulated for bringing youngsters on and building a future team with them but they also need mentoring.They need a few good quality older end to learn from and I think the signing of say the likes of Hobson and the like are not just good enough anymore.

They have played no rugby all season and back end of last, if we were entertained and had the same results we would be singing their praises and looking forward to the future.
We are simply bored with the skill levels and garbage on show.
