I'll wee on your pants if we win a trophy this season.

Was that some sort of chat up line

Seriously though, no thanks

But its all relative.

Regards Morgan he has punched way above his weight with 2 clubs now. In my opinion Noble has not.

Could that not mean he has overachieved with those clube then?

All I was trying to do was put some reality back into the equation.

Morgan was "flavour of the month" from the we want Noble out campaigners.

What would they be saying now if we had been humiliated by Harlequins?

Or would they be shouting "get Brian McDermott in"

Bear in mind, that McDermott is from the same coaching school as Brian Noble.

Well personally I am not that fickle, im not sure given the players KR had out today they were expected to win, Quins are a talented side when they want to be but generally they are very dour dull and make basic errors time and time again. They are capable of the odd anomaly good performance though they certainly have the players.........same coaching pool as Noble..........interesting.

The coaching pool argument is something i have highlighted for a while, tonight in my opinion adds more evidence into the theory.

An overachieveing team has a bad night, missing key players but still underperforms, Quins an frustrating under performing team hit the straps, then will get run through next week putting in a shocking performance.

Par for the course?

Well given we didn't finish second for the last two years (we would have to have made the GF to do that and we didn't) and we didn't make the cup semi last year you need to get your facts right.

And if we have been a title challenging side than so has every team that made the play offs in the last two years. It isn't saying a great deal.

You are letting two wins in the play offs for 2007 and 2008 blind you to the poor performances in the league in those years and those poor performances are what left us with too much to do in the playoffs to actually make the GF itself.

Nobby's record (INCLUDING WITH WIGAN) speaks for itself.


So many on here will have to eat their words this season.


And yes I will be here to remind them of it.

Sorry 3rd, typing error dave.

So you continue to say. I will not hold my breath. Hope you are right. Highly doubt it though sadly.

I am not blind to it, I am just playing devils advocate on this thread.

Jon,
Woah,
They were missing Fox, a player released by Leeds. Briscoe a player released by Wigan. Colbon a player pilloried by Wigan fans (we should have kept him)

HKR were outplayed and out coached tonight.

I agree, look at some of the teams above us, Quins, Hudds, KR and Wakefield, we are more than capable of catching these teams, they lack experience near the top of the league and 2 or 3 of them could easily drop off, we see it every season with some teams especially wakefield, even in other sports like football. We could still finish 4th I think, at the start of the season with the lack of Barrett in the side and shortage of punch in the pack, many would have accepted this, I think I would.

Fox is a very good winger in Sl standards, Briscoe is a key player for KR.

As i said though a team over achieving has a bad night a team underachieving has one of the rare odd nights.

In the next few weeks it will return to form. Quins will get drubbed and put in a shocking run, KR will snap out of it and get back on form.

All teams apart from Wigan of late have a bad spell of a few weeks. Sadly Wigan have a good spell of a few weeks a season and it is suddenly deemed acceptable.
