| Quote: MC_Wildcat "Agar's attitude on Boots n All last night worries me. Robbie Paul stressed that sunday's game is a must win for the Bulls and the team are fired up for it. Agar's attitude was that if we lose it's not that important because we have plenty of home games still to play ! I hope that this is not what his pre match talk to the players is because it hardly motivates them to give their all for the club. Oh for a John Kear pre match motivational speech, he may not have been the best coach we have ever had but he could certainly get the time fired up and determined to win crucial games !'"
strange how it was Robbie Paul that did the inteview rather than Cummins. I've thought that in his last few after match interviews Cummins seems to have lost it a bit emotionally. Seems close to tears and lost for answers, much gulping and head shaking.

| In answer to the OP. I think Agar has it bang on with this (I voted to go as well). If the coach bangs on about it being must win all week, that livelihoods depend on it and that it's the most important game of the clubs life etc and we lose, what hope does he have of ever getting them to believe the message that we can still stay up. I'm sure they all know how important the game is but there is no need to mentally destroy the team if we lose. We need them ready to fight all season not just against the bulls and London

| Tony Rea has certain things in common with Agar in as much as both clubs had the bones picked by other clubs' for the want of a better expression, the difference is that Wakefield recruited better despite having no individual to subsidise us as is the case at the Bronco's, if that's what we are told is the case there, that said despite quite a few injuries to some of our players' we have still managed to win occasionally which is more than Mr Rea has done at the Bronco's, come the end of the season he may well be the one for us when he could bring in some new players of his own, but up till now he could not win a game with his own selection of players never mind somebody else's.

| I'd bust a gut for Kieran Purtill at Giants. Will be a great coach and has serves his apprentaship as an assistant under jon Sharpe, nathan brown, Paul Anderson and a few others

| Would you bust a gut for Iestyn Harris, unfortunately he seems to be having a tough time despite being coached by Noble and Wane, fwiw I'd hardly call that a recommendation being coached by Sharp.

Spot on.
It would be bonkers to pile pressure on the players all week by building this game up to the be all and end all of the season; it ruins their preparation for this game, and it creates a lull in the training and games that follow. Aside from that, what he says on the telly and what he says in private to the players will be totally different.
Overall, I wouldn't put too much stock in what coaches and players say in interviews these days; they all receive media training and will use variants of the same stock phrases in answer to most questions - aside from the occasional post-match slip of the tongue, when emotions are high and the training goes out the window, it's so much stuff and nonsense for the most part.

| IF we were to change coach (I'm not necessarily in favour at this stage) then perhaps RA could move 'upstairs' and be in charge of player recruitment etc and the on field could be undertaken by one of our own (well nearly), a person who has plenty of coaching experience and was at our game on Sunday. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned him recently on this board.........

I don't think so, but you never know.
The man to whom I refer has scored a try or two for us.

| Did Wayne Price score a try for us?
WP has plenty of 'experience', depends if he ever sees himself as a head coach I suppose.
