The main point I was getting at was that that this time last year, apart from some individual displays from Barrett, we were playing the same dull one up Rugby yet no one questioned Noble's tactics. Now that we don't have a quality leader to stand up and produce off the cuff Rugby it becomes a problem. The players seem lost of both a leader and a game plan when we manage to get over the half way line. I'm sick of watching us turn the ball back inside for Palea'aesina, Fielden and co to attempt to barge over or failing that kick to the corner, but that's nothing new to this year.

We have become a very predictable side, it is easier for opposing teams to figure out what we'll do and how to stop it. It's only when the players go away from the gameplan and throw the ball around that the opposition are caught off guard and we score at will, but when we get a couple of points ahead, we return to the boring predictable style, and the opposition can catch up again.

It's being going downhill since early last season, Huddersfield away was when most of us really started to take notice IIRC. Even though we won that game in the last minute it was boring as fook.

The rot is setting in, even scrappy wins aren't good enough now I think. Time for change or we'll see more and more fans walk away (I wont be one of them mind!).

E by gum.

the best time i had at the jjb was 4 seasons ago when we nearly went down the atmosphere was superb and nobody can disagree with me

That's because that was a statement about yourself.
