kath hetherington, james rule, rich agar, andy last the whole board, the reason being kr have run at a loss and apart from this season they have out performed us,i,m not saying run the club at a loss but have the fans got to put up with midtable drivel we need a supporter with some cash like hudge is for the dobbins.

OK

You'd like Kath to swagger into the changing rooms 4 times a season to shout at the players, preside over PR disasters like the Willie Mason cardboard cutout/visa failure/de-registration extravaganza, give chance after to chance to a no-mark like Cockayne, struggle with corporate basics like filing accounts and annual returns on time, and promise for 3 and half years that ground improvements are imminent then fail to deliver? The reality is that neither team are going to challenge anytime soon, but by comparison our board is the embodiment of dignity and credibility.

I think Fitz will eventually become a great coach.

Bye Bye Kath and take lap dog Rule with you .

If only we could get people within the board room that want to see winners...Rather than participants.

Never understood this accusation. Rule is an [iemployee[/i FFS. What do you expect him to do - publicly criticise his bosses all the time?

What have they won since they returned to SL?

121 competition points and 1 play-off game.

(vs your 118 and 1). We have a game in hand though.

In absolute terms, similar. Relative to expectations - I support a middling SL team.

judging by the cant be ar-ed attitude of lauaki,i would say he has already been told hes not needed anymore.

They must have told him that when he first came over then because hes been t.

Long been offered 20k plus pay as you play apparently.
Keep Washy as a back rower which is his position and also sign another backrower.
Move Sharp on, some clown will take him.
Sign a new winger, maybe Phelps could do the job if we have quota space?
We need 2, possibly 3 new props to work alongside Moa and Ogre.
Keep Horne.


Mid table mediocrity is not acceptable.

With Fitz retiring we need a prop/SR replacement.

Washy, Dowes, Lauaki, Long can all go and we need to find two decent props from somewhere.

Someone must have told him as he won't have worked it out by himself

I'd like Washbrook to stay, but as a backrower only. I'd still like us to sign a neew backrower, for starting back row of Tickle, Manu, Westerman with the new guy on the bench, and then have Washbrook as the cover and also for competition.
However, for the good of his career I think that he should make a decision to leave.

Our main priority must be the signing of a prop. Moa and O'Meley are awesome, hope that we have both signed up, and we have Radford signed up for next season. Looking at his form this season I would also offer Dowes another short contract, he's exceeded my expectations of him. We then need to buy another good prop for competition for places, interchange, cover, etc.

I'd let Lauaki go and Fitz seems to be retiring.

A new Prop and a Backrower must be prioritised, with new contracts given to Moa, Dowes, Washbrook.
