For me the telling point is how much the performance of players improves after they leave Trinity and work under other coaches. Take Millard and Blanch and to a lesser extent Jeffries this season.We all saw the video of "magic millard" when he played in Australia but he was not allowed to show his undoubted talents in our coaching set-up. Now at Catalans he is showing exactly what we missed.In previous seasons we have released players such as Grix, Atkins,Griffin and others who have gone on to be better players, they can't all be coincidences !

Indeed. We all knew this team would lose far more than they would win, that was a given. I suspect most fans can stomach a loss. Losing by 50 odd points to an on fire Warrington, St Helens or Wigan is something as supporters we can reason with, however disappointed we feel. Losing by 20 odd points to a team in 12th position, 30 odd points to a team in 8th, and 50 odd points to a team in 11th is much harder to accept, notwithstanding the absolute dire tactics the current team are employing, which leads to speculation the current set of players are not able to play anything more than 5 drives and a kick, which frankly, I think they would find insulting, particularly the ones who have come through the Wigan and St Helens academies.

I hope you are right!

Oh I don't doubt that the grave was dug by others as it turned out.
