Start one. I'm undecided as yet but times running out and were getting worse. Selections are confusing to say the least. Same goes for use of subs and the insistence on using blanch and gleeson really does baffle me. Blanch is championship standard gleeson championship one. We need a new back line completely only murphy and an in form bj are good enough. Obst has heart but is not good enough for a quota spot. One positive is king he is playing out of his skin and looks back to full fitness

2 things -

1 - name a better coach who would come
2 - Kears record speaks for itself at Wakey

We aren't ever gonna regularly beat the big boys in our current situation, we need this stadium sorted ASAP, then we can get going a bit more.

Ok so it looks like he's dropped the ball with the Cooke debacle, but be fair - how many of his other signings have been great additions.

Just give him some time to sort it out

I said it after the Hull game,that he should go.Many people said he should be given more time etc....We are another 3 games on and sinking quicker that the titanic.
Kears selection policies have gone beyond a joke ,for the second time this season he selected a winger on the bench.Tonight that was criminal!!He must have known Latu couldnt do the full 80,so why the hell no Davey?
Selecting Gleeson again,this guy must rate as one of the all time worst centres to grace Super League.He had options tonight of selecting Murphy at centre and bringing back Blaymire at fullback.
Tonight we played a team missing arguably their most influential playmaker - Orford and they lost probably their second key playmaker,in Kearney for the whole of the second half,indeed he was on one leg after 20 minutes.Yet Bradford were still able to put 29 points on us without reply.
We dont appear to have many if any attacking moves,which makes me wonder what Kear has them doing in training.At times our attacking options and running of lines are shambolic.
This is Kears team,what Kear has put together and the dross that is been served up is unacceptable -- the buck stops with him.
Kear is untouchable to many for his great efforts in keeping us in Super League,but for how long do we have to repay that achievement?
Kears trademark was to get more than average out of an average player,but he is now struggling to get average out of an average squad,in my opinion he is getting considerably below average out of HIS squad.Everytime this subject comes up,people will always make comment --"well who can you get better,that will come",sorry, but thats not a good reason for sticking with a coach whos team is serving up dire performances week after week.Coaches are not disimilar to players -- if the money is right they will come.Kear himself doesnt come cheap.

I wont stop watching like some have suggested they will,but i will continue to express my opinion that its time for Kear to move on.

Totally agree on Obst and the selection policy is a joke.

Millward?

At least you get the feeling he would let the lads play with a bit more freedom and it wouldn't be like watching paint dry for an hour and half a week. Its the boring play I can't do with, can handle watching crap but this regimented, dull lack of creative ideas is getting lots of people down. We had more invention from Kingy than the rest of the backs put together....

I don't care if we win, lose or draw as long as the team gives 100% every week and each player wears the shirt with pride.:



A few coaches I can think of that could be interested in the Wakey job:-

Millward
Powell
Cullen
Harrison

Outside bet - March brothers...

Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_5733.jpeg



I see many comparisons in the current Trinity team and the Noble coached Wigan team. You look technically very poor in most aspects of the game and also the fitness and condition of the players looks poor, I am not saying all the lads have to look like body builders but a good few to me look to be carrying excess fat. Attacking wise there is no sign of life and there appears to be a lethargy in all aspects of the team. It is just my opinion but it seems to me that the more experienced English coaches are getting shown up by the technical coaching of the Aussies, and the methods of the English guys have become dated very quickly.

I feel the biggest error this year has been placing too many eggs in one basket, you were always going to field a pretty strong starting 13 from the squad at the start of the year, but once you picked up injuries (or departures) you were always going to struggle for me.

Regards Cooke I understand he is on a contract till the end of the year, the position you were in he became a calculated risk, with the potential to fill a play makers void, sadly at the moment the risk has not paid off.

Worrying times for a Trinity fan, and while I do feel Kear now needs to turn things round to remain as coach I would not necessarily want him out of the club altogether I feel the best role for the older coaches is one of football director looking at youth structures and player development etc

Millward would be the obvious go to man for me should things not change regard the lethargy of on field performance and also a shake up of the backroom altogether may also be required.

Hasn't Millward got a clause in the contract that lets him go if a SL club want him? Would take him or Cullen, possibly Powell at a push.

Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of letting a new coach cut his teeth, we need somebody with a proven track record, Millward the man with several grand finals under his belt (and more importantly likely to be available) has got to be considered as a solution to our ongoing problem.

And for your reference, seen as you apparently struggle with the meaningknee-jerk (nē'jûrk')
[iadj. Slang[/i

Easily predictable; automatic

We've been pathetic since before Easter, and more and more people are getting sick of it and (most) discussing it in a reasonable and constructive manner after. 6 matches or so with let down after let down on and off the field, it can hardly be considered "Knee-jerk"

He's a trier and always has been, and that's a free pass with a large section of the crowd.
