it was a tough period.

Selection errors were made before that though.

Yes were all disapointed beyond all belief, WE can all see the issues at hand yet the coaches and the croud who employ him cannot??

lets look at the current squad, their issues and it all becomes clearer..

Tansey : your a full back, you tackle legs and stop runners.. you do not try to slap everyone who runs at you across the chest ....
Calderwood : never have we needed a player back so badly if just for his enthusiasm.
T. Briscoe : young, learning but strong and a real talent.
Yeaman : just not good enough, one good game in 6 isnt enough
Horne : a lot resting on his shoulders again..erm where did we see that last ???
Long : one game wonder so far!!
Dowes : not even in my top 10 forwards in SL, Has he ever broken a tackle??
Berrigan : could be a very damaging injury to the team losing him.
O'Meley : looked very tired last two games, where is the MO that we have all seen on that tube , the one we have looks a few yards slower to me!!
Radford : Utter plodder and should not be anywhere near the first team..
Tickle : one of the few plus points of this season.
Fitzgibbon : same as Tickle.
Washbrook : cheap squad member , let him go at the end of 2010
Lauaki : A loose cannon yes , but about time we had some steel in the pack
Manu : player of the year so far , potential MOS??
Cusack : sorry to say but looks very very tired at present, time to go ..
Turner : got the whole deal but needs game time to build confidence.
Houghton : learning week in week out, will be our backbone for a while to come
Whiting : I would make him captain based on this years performances!!
Burnett : big and daft, no guile no skil but a good young battering ram.
Moa : why buy him if were not going to play him, whilst I am still not convinced he at least now due to injury will get a run in the team.
Hall : biggest white elephant at the club, no balls, no backbone, cant tackle and we have still yet to see this offiah style attack everyone bleets on about this year!!
get rid


Agar : tossin it off big time at FC, your only as good as your last result so my old coach used to say , well Mr Agar your last three seasons involvement have been bollox mate!!!

Uncle Dennis: does this guy still work for FC, where is the NRL ethic we all heard he was to bring to the club?? P Sharp all over again tossin it off with a beach house in manley again no doubt !!

Like Wilf said we looked the mutts in the mud but on dry land we look as agile as a seal in sand!!
Ogre needs to loose some blubber which will only come with fitness and time i guess, Fitz needs a rest I am sure,Long needs to show us something other than what nice suits he wears and Hall well he just needs to go away and multiply ( never seen a player flap around as much as he does) .
But someone please please tell me what Radford, Dowes , Hall and yeaman bring to the team because after 40 plus years as a fan I cant see what it is!!

yeah another thread

Harsh on Ogre and yeaman

Bit Harsh on Manu He's big but not fat

Just had a thought, Agar has only won two games in the CC. Bradford and Wakefield in 08. All the others he has lost.

Tackling around the legs hasn't been part of the game for years. It's all wrestling techniques now to slow the attacker down at the ptb.

All 2 of them you mean?

Finals don't count then?

On Agar's comments, the BBC commented on it and Peacock said it was a big factor in deciding the match. Some of it was down to poor decisions by our players and a bad refereeing call but it all helped Leeds to win the game in that 20 min 15 spell in the 2nd half.
