On paper yes. But to use a cliche RL matches are not played on paper. There is also a difference between challenging in and around the top four (which we are doing) and finishing in the top four, which I don't think we will.

Of course, it's easy having a good squad on paper it's not as easy putting the performances week in and week out but I don't think it's unreasonable to say with the current squad we should have hope we can finish in the top four. If we don't then I think Agar's position should be seriously looked at.

As I said earlier I'm undecided on whether I want Agar out now or not but by giving him a two-year deal the board have made a rod for their own back. It's unthinkable to look at the the majority of performances this season and say the style of rugby we play is worthy of a long contract.

would look like AGAROUT otherwise and thats daft cos he plays for Catalan dont he

I agree with you about the contract extension but I think the wheels would have to seriously fall off the rest of our season before Agar's position would be looked at. The board would regard top 6 as a successful season and I think top 8 would be enough to keep his job.

I don't understand some poeple!!

I agree. I posted on another thread recently that the brand of rugby we largely play is probably enough to see us finish in the playoffs every year barring excessive circumstances, but I don't honestly believe it will ever be enough for us to be in with a genuine chance of winning anything. At crunch time in the big games, we are wanting.

As for on topic, where do reckon he got that done? It would be all kinds of ironic if it was in the club shop!

That's where Agar's downfall comes into it, he's probably not the man to take us to that top three/four level. The squad is good enough the coaching staff probably arn't.

He is right Agar out .".He was at the game "

I do if you give some people the moon they want the Sun as well.. ps and "I don't mean the morning paper" Why not wait till October and see if we make the GF ..In the meantime let enjoy our Win's

So two wins against poor opposition is giving FC fans 'the moon'?

With attitudes like that amongst our fans it's no wonder the board continue to abuse our loyalty like they do.

Some people are carrying on like we've only won 2 games this season!

We have beaten saints, hudds, Bradford and our other top 8 challengers wakey.

well done for the shirt print! At least sum1s doin sumthing for their beleifs rather than moaning on here! Although 4th in the table is a great position at this moment lets see where we are at the buisness end (hopefully top 4 and finalists!) And lets gauge our current standard of performance against a form side like saints to see how far we have developed with agars team

I find it hard to credit that some people are actually moaning about being in 4th spot after our last two seasons.

How can people say that we can't gauge how far we've come by 2 easy wins and that we must use Sts as the benchmark?? Is that just an excuse to get the moaners out again, cos i fully expect us to lose vs Sts...... Last year we lost 18-6 to Catalan and 40-18 to Cas, can't we just say well done on a massive improvement??

Everybody wants Agar out and saying Maguire etc... would do a far better job with that team. I'd like to know where or how rather then just predicting/guessing. The way i see it;

Long: Can't be any better, Agar cannot get any more out of him
O'Meley: Looks like the signing of the season, and playing like one of the best in superleague. Agar cannot get any more out of him.
Fitzy: Excellent, cannot get any more out of him.
R.Horne: He even got Rich Horne playing well before his injury and he started to look more like the player we expect him to be.

What more do people want our coach to do?? We're 4th FFS and people still moan!!

Why do you expect us to lose to Saints ?
