It was actually during the game after a Dobbins try also flicked V’s at the team but unfortunately I don’t think they saw any of it. Pretty poor bunch of players this. The squad isn’t bad and should be finishing mid table but they’re just not producing effort. Not convinced by this out of contract e. Something more sinister, get rid of the coach scenario, is Smith going to be the next to be slung under the bus? Same players same scenario. Hope to God AP doesn’t pull the trigger again because he hasn’t got the cash to pay this rabble off. At least 6 need to go immediately. Sick and tired of players out rumours. If you’ve got nowt positive to say, say nowt. You know who you are and you haven’t been here long.

I agree completely.
I was going to go myself but I am now so disillusioned with the team right now that I'm not going to waste my time, money and effort on players who are quite frankly stealing a living from the club and don't currently deserve our support.

I hope Pearson sticks by Smith and gives him time to dispel the club of these players who simply don't care.

If the team can't be bothered then why should we?

I can't see anything other than another embarrassing defeat for this miserable, uninterested and under performing mess.

As much as it pains me I have made the decision to save my money and no longer do the away games due to the lack of effort, application and desire from the playing squad. I’d rather save that money and put it to something more beneficial currently.

As has been said whilst this squad isn’t good enough to get to a GF it is certainly a lot better than the results and performances they have served up so far.

fc fans on the open terrace at headingley will be right on top of the players as they huddle between the posts defending that end, if they don't hear anything then, they never will! could get ugly

My main concern with any of this is what it will do to the young players that are brought in?

Sure some players need to be made clear how we feel, although if they don’t know then they are more stupid than we thought, but it could seriously affect the confidence of some youngsters and make them question if they want to remain at this club?

I'd say they most probably do know but they just aren't that interested/bothered and haven't been for long enough hence the standard and level of performances. Its been an easy life for a lot of them for too long, poor performances and still picking up their salary with no consequences or accountability.

Well, massive changes to the squad - the injured and banned are left out. No underperformers, and he hasn't brought Jack Brown back in. Amazed.

"Kane Evans and Mitieli Vulikijapani drop out and will serve their one-match suspensions, while Jake Clifford (ankle) and Jamie Shaul (calf) are unavailable having picked up knocks during the game.

The quartet are replaced by Andre Savelio, Joe Lovodua, Cam Scott, and Harvey Barron."

If we go with McNamara and Lovodua in the halves, we will be crucified. I am told that Litten and Gardiner will play

I know we have injuries / suspensions but it's a joke that nobody who played last week has been dropped from the 21 this week

Litten
Swift
Scott
Carlos
Mcintosh
Sutcliffe
McNamara
Brown
Houghton
Satae
Savelio
Griffin
Fash

Gardiner
Dwyer
Sao
Cator

Heard they're moving the match onto the cricket ground as it will be more fitting to the scoreline

Jack Brown is in the squad

And then they wonder why results and performance don't change when the same old failures get the chance to do it again every week. Even with the injuries and suspensions I'd hoped we'd have had a couple of others dropped from the 21 man squad but guess that would mean the club had started holding them to account. Just seems that the club still rewards continual failure and poor performance.

Agreed that if we go with Lovodua in the halves we already know there's an evitability about things. Hoping that Scott will go to centre and Sutcliffe in the halves as a temporary cover until Clifford or Trueman are fit to play.

Hopefully they'll declare before it gets too embarrassing.

Probably be the team, I'd start Cator at 13 and stat Fash at prop, Brown on the bench.

A few lucky players, particularly Mcintosh, Satae and McNamara.

Just can't see where the points are coming from, got to hope from a few barge overs.

I do understand to some degree why we are not seeing huge changes, particularly with the younger players. as mentioned above, their confidence for their development is key. Throwing young lads in for their debut when we have a completely disjointed spine and are at an all time low for morale would probably do more harm than good at this point, especially when we are at great risk of another embarrassment. However I do understand the frustration of players constantly underperforming keep being rewarded with seemingly secure spots.

Give Lovodua a go at hooker. It's the position we signed him to play so give him a start there.Houghton is finished and sadly no longer good enough for Super league.
