This is something that is not peculiar to this season. Apart from Jamie Thackray, you haven't seen any forward really hitting the ball since Steve Craven (unless some of our brethren with better memories care to correct me !). One of the things that kids get taught when they first start to play is to take the ball from deep. Love or hate Barry McDermott, he always looked like he was putting the required effort into the contact. All this stuff taking the ball from a four or five step run up is not effective. |

| Quote: hullandbroncos "I have to agree that agar has made alot of mistakes especially with things like bench selections and the style of play he has adopted . However what annoys me is the players attitude , happened in john kear era , peter sharp when they first come they are up for the games and look interested however once they start to lose a few you can see there attitude and desire changes . It has happened this season first five games we were playin ok rugby but what got us through was the commitment from the players. The forwards were running with urgency and the defence was meeting the man with the ball not hanging back waiting .Now they have lost a couple you saw players slipping of tackles and hanging back . Also the fact the players dont run onto the ball just wait there is another factor . The manager has to take alot the blame but to many fans look past the players something needs to be done at the top otherwise player power will always dominate and the players should be proud of wearing the black and white shirt not just saying it !!'"
Quite right, we have the same squad of players that did the business earlier in the season, the only difference is the lack of commitment and that is just not acceptable!
We have had 3 coaches in 4 years and the players have shown the same attitude for each!
Its been said a thousand times before but if our players perform with passion and pride then most fans would accept the odd loss, but to slouch about like farts in a trance is just not good enough.
Richard Agar has done alot in preseason to try and address many of our weaknesses and apart from some odd substitutions and team selection lately has done wonders. I get the feeling he is an honest guy who is not set in his ways and will learn, he will also have a great chance to restructure the whole squad soon as many of our squad will be out of contract at the end of the season. |

Motto of the week -
It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.:27608.jpg |

| Think the root of this weeks problem was maybe Saturday night  |

Why should we be low in confidence......Cas beating us at home was the start of the 'slump'......But did something happen during training the week before that????? Just a thought 'cos we looked like we were struggling for a loss before that. It was like watching Hull in the 80's again (we just seemed to win all the time ).
Come on lads........Just do what you were doing before the Cas game eh? |

Because we're currently playing worse than the average under 10's side?
Just a thought.

This bugs the hell out of me too. player like King could be destructive running onto the ball, he has that natural aggression but he is one of the worst for standing still while collecting and not making any impact in the collision. |

Or maybe the 'Gimme Some' song with the equally stupid dance has had a hand in our present form?????
