Yeah, the stat about Tom Johnstone having scored more tries this season for Catalan, than Trinity have scored all season, really hurt.

But doesn't that show why this team is struggling so much compared to previous seasons.
He got us out of a hole plenty of times single handedly and when he didn't, Fifita did.
The problems have been here a while. Its just Tom's replacement then got injured and signed elsewhere and Fifita's replacement turned out to be a dud.

Poor cover at 6 then made it even worse.

Of course its a factor but coaching isn't the only thing.
Tom/Murphy was no one's fault.
Fifita leaving was no one's fault
Atoni was a big mistake but he looked the part so understandable.
Letting Miller go and then not replacing was just a really bad decision.....and we continue to pay for it.

needs to go asap

a least then we might be able to win one game this year

Needs a mini bus rather than a taxi.

There is only one thing more certain in life than death and taxes that is our coach will be unchanged regardless of today’s game.

By Eck lad you must be suffering tonight.

One swallow does not make a summer, he still needs to eradicate the previous performances. I suppose you are just grateful for a win but sadly this alone will not stop us from relegation but it does stop us from being the worst team in SL history which is something.

We can't rewrite this season, and I still don't think he's the man for the job.
BUT ... for tonight at least I am happy to let the man relax and enjoy a good win.
Let's see if he (and the players) can back this win up?

For me, if they can back it up against, what are, a stuttering Hull KR side, with a mounting injury list, the season is very much back on.

The same round Cas face Warrington.

I’m pleased this day for Mark Applegarth he is clearly a decent guy, doing a tough job in difficult circumstances… with some luck he could have had one or two more wins… and the table would look more interesting…

Does that mean he is a first grade Rugby league coach??

Not on the evidence I have seen so far, but training should be a happier place this week.

Without mcshane

Just enjoy the win. You've plenty of time left thiscseason to pick fault.
Today we scored tries, played with grit and won the game.
Embrace it.

Sadly it’s the old glass half full/empty situation isn’t it?
After today I say ‘why shouldn’t we win more games!’ They played with spirit and guts and I back that 100% I don’t knock it!
Glass half full for me - we got some self belief back now let’s continue with the same!

I was quite happy we won but an idiot felt it necessary to make a comment which was not merited based on how the season has gone. We can all congratulate today’s performance but we need to keep it going then such belief may be justified.
