7% up on last years 804, which is movement in the right direction.

do you want a job at the RFL?

why would me, (an antagonistic agitator against the way the London club has been run for the last 12 years and a compete anti-fan of the root cause of the mismanagement beig in my opinion the RFL and Hughes refusal to work together) offering praise to the club be a sign that I wanted a job at the RFL?

A 7% rise in the number of paying fans at 11 home games may only be equivalent to about £13,000, but it means that even though we had no Bradford and HKR this year, we have grown our base......well done to all involved.

Don't encourage him.

You beat me too it Red.

7% without a 20 point action plan and no daffodils in sight...... and a well done........how things have changed

I must have been watching a different match to Nadera.
Agree with his players to praise but I thought Pellisier was quite good. Quick at the play of the ball which got our forwards flying on, helping to stop the Halifax pack coming at us. Hopefully he'll get even better once the others get used to his style of play & he gels with the team.

Indeed...I believe the average attendance was nearer 3,700 when the "flowers in quins colours at the station" was first suggested and I've long given up on the hope that anyone who works at the club would have an ounce of anything other than a self-preservation gene in them......just bow to Dave and take the cash.....Bow to Dave and take the cash.......7% is a great result with little open effort, but in reality it's 60 more fans per game and not enough yearly ticket revenue to cover 1 months wages of a professional marketer

One of Pellisier's attributes has always been a quick scoot from dummy half, and that's a good thing when used at the right time. Unfortunately, watching on Sunday, he had a really unfortunate habit of taking 2 or 3 steps diagonally forward at the ruck before then passing the ball to first receiver. All that does is reduce the space between our attack and the oncoming defensive line, which makes it harder for the halves to actually do anything when they receive the ball. The defence is on top of them immediately. The hooker needs to either run or pass from the ruck, one or the other, but do it quickly and decisively.

It may just be him needing time to settle in, he's only been here a week after all. Or it could be one of the reasons his career flatlined a couple of years back and he ended up back in France. We'll have to wait and see.

He then passes to Cunningham who again heads either east of west giving us no space hence why hes always trying to look for the inside runner to straighten up

I've said it before Cunningham at 9 passes or goes, Samutt first receiver as he stands the defence up, is a good passer and can kick, Api second receiver who likes to play in space(neither Api or Cunningham have a decent high kick in them), why we dont go with that I will never know. We must trust wardy

Api seems to need space. I am not convinced he knows his options before getting the ball. He seems to hesitate or go nowhere when something obvious is not on.

Pelissier had no real other option. We very seldom have anything but single runner as first receiver, he is probably used to having options, we don’t have dummy runners, no one running angles so is having to take a step or two is what was needed maybe

Yeah, if he takes a couple of steps usually to the left he draws the line,but needs that first receiver on his shoulder, he uses him as the dummy and hits the second receiver on the angle. Hes just sometimes a little to quick for his own good and ends up with egg on face. Good player though and he will adapt.

It’s not his fault if that first receiver is not there though, it’s a team issue not just him.

you should apply for the coaching role if we miss the middle 8's......no interview required,

{DAVEHUGHESMODE}"here's £75,000.....build me a team with players I like"{/QUOTE}

Watch a game or two and see if you still disagree dog! Current way of play is very one up, first receiver very few dummy runners! Very few players running at angles.
Similar things were said about Sammut until he settled and rest of players started working out what he was doing.
Api struggles the same way, no runners.
Not about players I like it’s about watching the game
