| I suppose everyone deals with disappointment differently. I'm worried about the level of inconsistency at our club and the fact our head coach openly admits he doesn't know why and cannot do anything about it. I don't understand how he can remain in the job if that's the case. The Cup wins have been spectacular but we are not progressing as a club.
Some of us are just a bit more emotionally invested than others and I don't mean that in a derogatory way. A bit like the players I suppose. I get very frustrated by the apathetic performances the team puts in at times particularly when they then walk off the pitch seemingly without a care in the world. It doesn't hurt them like it does us. They are paid to play. We pay for the privilege of watching. They seem to forget at times.
Last season's comments about having nothing to play for with ten or eleven games to go are typical of the 'mediocrity is ok' mindset at the club and why there is little chance of us matching the achievements of the top clubs in the competition. Salary, the club, the fans, self respect and integrity will always make those comments deplorable in my opinion.

| Weve got quite a few aging players who cannot do it week in week out your Manus and minis, mixed with players who are inconsistent paea, westerman even taylor lately
Really needs a freshen up around the pack, weve strengthened well in the second row with savelio and jones and wel see a huge difference in punch and consistency with those two, now we just need a dominant pack again. Big fit mobile forwards who can play big minutes please
Step forward
Satae
Sao
One more second row and a prop in addition to those two and il be happy

Fair enough.
Two of the things we’ve lacked in recent years is positivity and physicality.
Tony Smith seems determined to bring plenty of the former, and the additions of Tomkins and Garbutt means our pack isn’t quite as ‘mobile’ as it once was. However, it is hardly dominant (injuries and Mulhern trying to reinvent himself as a centre hasn’t helped), and not many of our backs have a shot at getting a gig endorsing Jacamo.
Hadley, Minikin and Ethan Ryan look to be cut from worryingly similar cloth.

| Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista"I'm really happy. I would have bitten your hand off to be in the position we are now before the season started. You can anchor yourself with negativity, obviously, but it will get heavy and pull you under. Supporting a team is a pass time with highs and lows but ultimately to enjoy, otherwise what's the point? Been some great moments this season already, we don't have the luxury of benefactors or marquee signings so in that context we're doing OK. Wallowing in dissatisfaction is a life choice but not one for me happily.

I love the club, livevin the area and it's been part of my life since I was 4 so maybe it just matters more to me than it does you

Good post. Inconsistency is a state of mind and we clearly don't have the mental fortitude of some teams and that generally comes from club culture

| Quote HFC Boy="HFC Boy"He added defence to be polite .
We need a change to reach the top level.
Saints and Wire squads on a par with ours.
What is the missing ingredient?
On our day we are more than a match for anyone.
Why are we so bipolar?
Last night was 1 v 3 in the table ! No way should we be getting beaten at home like that ! Squad nearly at full strength.
The side seems to have no belief when we play the sides above us .
For me , that is down to preparation.'"
But we trained well again
