he would prob go crazy and smash the stadium up.
try rankin and turner at half back... i wouldnt be complaining just to see but then again we dont have the second rowers either
so boring wathing the likes of lawrence and roberts play'"
Well if it's as bad as no one dares to drop him, then we are in deeper trouble than i thought. trouble is we have no one who is any better, If Gaskill had the qualities he would still be at Saints, Rankin is no better, he is another of the " he never lets us down lot" , which we have plenty of, Put them all together and we have what we have ( a poor side )
Changes at the top and another Nathan Brown is what i see would work, but we know it's not going to happen so we will just have to slide gently down the tubes .
Mr Davy is no fool , he can see whats happening as well as you and me and yet he chooses to let things go on and on and on. What can you say, He's paying the piper.

| you know what, we over achieved those years when we were in the top 4 all the time
reality is maybe the aspirations we can hope for are top 8 every season like widnes, salford... going by attendances we are ahead of these two and the table kind of goes with attendances apart from wakefield who at the moment are the ones who have taken our place of over achieving

| I don't see what they can do. Rick Stone is a very Aussie in his approach and adopts a minimal risk approach and goes berserk by all accounts if players drop the ball, even in training. That sort of approach isn't really conducive to any free flowing rugby. I suspect they're under orders to run it up the pitch then kick high whilst the conditions are what they are... They might loosen up a touch if the sun ever comes out in 2018.

That’s the spirit.
We know our place.

Perhaps they are- and you know what- it’s working because we are sat on the opposition line more often than they are on ours!
The problem is the next bit- we aren’t putting on the plays to make the space- that doesn’t even always need us to make more than one pass- we just have to make the opposition unsure where the ball is going- and we are useless on that score. The only person that moves out of the line is the man who’s taking the ball in - he may as well have a sign on his head.

Yeah I'd go with that - we always tend to try and power over rather than do anything creative.

| thats why we need some creative coaches..........
like topic title reads you would think these two know a thing about that
but we certainly are being coached the aussie style of rugby and its boring and not working
summer may help when our ball runners can run instead of wheelspinning on the snow

if stone has to go then then these two should follow him out the door too, stealing wages
use the money to get shaun long in, will see some proper attacking rugby then
but then again do we have the players?
cant see anything changing soon as we have just given brough another deal so the attack will stay the same.
gone are the days of players like ferres knowing how to use their centres and wingers, totally wasted, fergsuo n and roberts cant pass, the only player we have that can pass is symonds and hes a crock.
got to feel sorry for the forwards who are laying the platform for the back to perform ...dominant in possession and territory against saints, wakey and hull kr, laughable our attack'"
You mate are a fantasist. Against Wakefield you were only any of those things for the first 15 minutes. The game last 80 minutes and in the remaining 65 minutes you weren't and Wakefield were.
Now try and work out why Wakefield won and won easily in the end!

| How pathetic, why would you get rid of 2 outstanding young british coaches because your average players aren't playing well? you do realise they only 'assist' the head coach and not actually tell the players what they want them to do? Robinson is doing a superb job with your juniors whe the hell would you want him to leave
