Quote: worksopwildcat "You are right to laugh at that statement as it is indeed incorrect
It should have read "an average coach would have us in the top 6"
We have good players underperforming for a poor coach.'"
I don't agree
As an example, one of our better players, in Lee Smith, couldn't get a game with the Leeds reserves.
Mathers was let go by Cas, Cockayne was kicked out by HullKR (admittedly not for football reasons) Leeds didn't want Amor, Kirmond was let go by Huddersfield......they could all have been retained.
Even Tim Smith was struggling to play first grade. Only the bottom teams in Super League were interested.
We as a club and the current and previous coach in some cases made them into a good team.
We have hardly got a team of all talents that could just walk in the top 6.
I do however think we are are at the top end of the group below that and we could, with some stability and a couple of additions make it into that group as Hull KR are doing.
