Don't know about him coming Thursday…..get him an earlier flight and put Clawson on the returning one. Our fitness/condition is a disgrace and a major reason how defence is so bad.

We look like a pub team.

Oh, and another try you could see coming from a mile off. Once again we're the laughing stock of magic weekend. Third year in a row now.

The whole team cannot physically do what they need to do…..and thats straight from the kick off .

That is the most sensible post of the day, I totally agree that must be his immediate priority.

Trin77 has absolutely nailed the top priority for Smith and that is player fitness which appears woeful. Then it is defence.

At least he should be under no illusions as to the task in hand.
Nice long flight to review the season's videos. Hope he's a big fan of groundhog day ... Or not!
Hopeful that he can change things around. He has the experience. We have some good players; just a terrible team.
Good luck Brian.

I have come to the conclusion that i and many others have been wrong all along and quite frankly these players of ours just aren't as good as we thought they were. Bar maybe half a dozen it is becoming more apparent that they just aren't physically or mentally up to it. Brian Smith or not i can't see this lot keeping the club in superleague.

Totally agree.
Half of them are an embarrassment to the club. They are not good enough but we're stuck with 'em for now so I can only hope Brian Smith comes with some sticks of dynamite to stick up their proverbials.
Oh! - and yes, get somebody in who can make them run faster and for longer than me.

Well if the players share the same attitude as you theboyem you may be right. Any player found sherking should be packed away. Im of the opinion that the players have the opportunity to buckle up and dig in and that applies to the whole squad
I also think the senior members need to honest with the club and more importantly with themselves. Having had the chance to leave it would appear many are still going through the motions .

Club record of consecutive SL defeats, and the Rhinos next so I doubt that will be stopped soon.

Good luck Brian. You seriously need it!!

This.

Sadly i've seen nothing to suggest that they don't share the same attitude. Many just don't seem to want to be here.

Smith needs his work permit application okaying before he can get here, so its thursday/friday at the earliest.

Guess so , does Mr. Clawson need a permit to leave ? lol

Can Jacob Miller have Brian Smiths return ticket please ?
