I would tell them what I thought, I would not say 'Oi you're shiit' but I would say the peformances are not acceptable and the rugby is boring.

You should start a chant at the next home game - 'The peformances are not acceptable and the rugby is boring, and you know it is!'

Mine also. Last time we had a side and a coach capable of playing attractive, attacking rugby. Only a horrendous end of season injury crisis stopped us from being realistic challengers that season. icon_sad.gif

We've been on a downhill slide in terms of quality and playing style ever since IMO - despite the CC win in 2005 and GF in 2006.

I would have loved to see what we could have achieved without that horrible run of injuries. Its also interesting to note that despite comments on here about Bomber playing good rugby, at the time people wanted a change as he had been in charge for 5 years and we felt we needed a new coach to progress further.

My recollection is that pretty much everyone wanted him to stay but he wanted to try his hand in the NRL.

Interesting comparison between his time with us and his time with saints. he left saints after one GF win (I think) but left them with the seeds of a great team that went on to dominate the game with a succession of top quality coaches and acquisitions, whereas he left us with the seeds of a top class side which went on to a cup win, appear in a GF and has then been systematically dismantled by a succession of inferior coaches, poor recruitment and incompetent management at the club

"You don't have to be great to start, but to be great you have to start".:Black Backgrounds/Statler.gif



Quote: Mrs Barista "TBH from a pure "fit"ness perspective I think we have the best set of halves in SL. Horne and Thorman are much easier on the eye than Pryce and Long or Burrow and McGuire. We have some excellent strength in depth in this area too - Tommy Lee and Berro aren't too shabby.

Some clubs really struggle in this respect; Brough, Drew for example. Rovers are the worst though - Dobson and Cooke - a double-bagger combo
What do you mean easier on the eye? Do you mean because there slowing at everything than every other half back pairing. So you don't strain your eyes trying to keep up? icon_wink.gif icon_lol.gif

All you have to do is look at the two starting props,this should give you the answer to why that side is better than this one,can you imagine Berrigan playing behing them??.

Quote: A unknown superstar "'"

Calderwood - Never gets used, but in the 2004 team would of scored as many as Best did.

No way, however great you think Calders is, he's nowhere near the class Col Best was/is. Besty would start in most NRL sides.

Even to have GOD from that squad in this years would be a massive boost.

Think I may watch the 2004 season review tonight. icon_lol.gif

Can someone post the 2003 squad?

Yes cos he'd be 5 years younger and a bit fitter! icon_lol.gif

Quote: hull smallears "I think thats why so many of us supporting Hull for so long are finally getting a bit disolusioned with it all. All this grade a bollox only washes for so long'"


Thats certainly a good point and one that is certainly confirmed when I looked at the list of 2004 players!!
