One thing is baffling me!!

We bring in Dennis Moore, who was second to Des Hasler at Manly,
who appeared in consecutive Grand Finals.

And yet............

We still play in the same manner as the last two seasons!!

Is Moore having any input into the side at all???

For the avoidance of doubt I was referring to Sharp so maybe I should have said second last time.

ALL down to tactics IMO !

Wasting 80% of tackles with one man barges doomed to failure, our dreadnought pack have made precious few breaks.

Most damning fact from Saturday was we didn't create a single clean break in 80 mins against dire opposition.

2 tries from kicks, 1 forward barge & one quick hands to the wing - we used to score good, well crafted tries but rarely under agar.

Players defo good enough - we should stroll top 4 & make a final.

Lynne for Hall?? Absolute joke, that choice on its own cost us 2 points.

Must must must go. Really confirm board intent on ripping off us fans if they think 3 years of dross is reasonable product.

i know look at wigan now with maguire in charge

The problem with sacking the coach in April is the chances of being able to recruit a top class replacement are slim. If the board do decide enough is enough within the next few weeks, we will probably require an interim coach to see us through to season's end. That coach will almost certainly be Moore and like you, I don't believe he is the answer either. If someone has reached the age of 50 without progressing beyond the status of assistent then its usually for a reason (ie other people have looked at him and decided he isn't head coach material).

Whether we like it or not, the probability is we are stuck with an Agar/Moore set-up until Sept/Oct. I'm not convinced sacking Agar now will achieve a great deal in the short-term. Once the decision had been made to stick with him for 2010, we effectively commited ourselves for the season. We've made our bed so lie in it, so to speak. Personally, I would stick with Agar for the season, unless it goes completely pear-shaped, but I hope the board are considering their options now, with discreet enquiries being made regarding possible choices.

Agar will see the season out, then he'll go on to the England job full time, he'll fail at that (as anyone would, because the players simply are not good enough), who we will get in I have no idea, but I doubt it will be the "household" name we want.

Everyone ready to see Radford captain England

"A panel made up of RFL chief executive Nigel Wood, RFL Performance Director John Roberts, RFL Head of Player Development Barrie-Jon Mather and former Great Britain captain Paul Sculthorpe will make the final decision"

Would you trust them to organise a 7 year old's party at Big Fun, let alone an international coaching position?

That's a very good point!

I reckon he will get the easter games and the two cup games against Leeds. Didnt we sack Kear after losing to Bradford in the cup. Was that the same year we then had that run that took us to 2nd in the league. With his contract up at the end of the season the board are going to have to make a decision. If we where flying high in the league and the club announced an extention to his contract would that of made people happy. If we are mid table will this affect their decision.

The problem is that the CC is easily our best chance of success this season because even with a competent coach in charge of our squad, it would have been a big ask to win at OT. If we wait until we're out of the cup, the 2010 could be done and dusted for us.

I think that we will probably beat the dobbins TBH but, for me, that shouldn't have any bearing on this argument come Saturday morning. Although a sound beating at to our petty little neighbours at Craven Palace will probably send this site into overdrive.

Can I go on record now as saying there is no way Ellery Hanley would be a suitable alternative!

Better than what we have though thats for sure!!
and WAS sat with Kath and co at Salford!!
who knows,

He gets a decent write up by Longy in his book.
