| Its an understandable reaction to what is an underwhelming start to the season, and if we look a little closer it can be sourced back to the start of pre-season when the opportunity to work solidly on defensive formations should have been of prime concern. I must say I couldn't believe it when I was told contact and drills weren't started until January! When I played (albeit amateur) we combined gaining fitness on the training pitch with the track and the gym from week one of the schedule. I don't think the game has changed that much, has it?
Chester also knew he had a problem in the pack - two big units - but no one has arrived at the Lightstream. I suggest the reason for this can be found in the clubs emphasis on finding the right fit. No matter how deep you filter and delve into the individual there is always a risk (ie Adam Walker, whether guilty or not you cannot detect these things). I know Ben Kavanagh turned Rovers down because of the faffing about this process was causing, although I feel we dodged a bullet with him IMO. TBH you don't need to be well-grounded to be a forward, you want someone who is a nutter (for want of a better word). Would the current selection process sign Ben Westwood or going back in time Burton or Hogan. Its all well and good going for 'image' and 'brand' but come on, this is rough tough rugby league.
As for calling for Chester to resign, I suggest it is premature. Lets wait until the likes of Campo and Lunt return before we get the 'Chester Out' banners. . .but it might be worth a punt at the bookies to take advantage of still reasonable odds!

| If the rumours are correct and Chester has gone then hopefully Poching goes too. A complete fresh start is vital for whomever it is that takes over. SL survival and damage limitation has to be the priority for whoever it may be.

Those proposing Rowley are way off the mark IMO, we need an experienced coach. We have never had an experienced coach since we got in to SL. We need someone who can come in and sort this mess out by stamping his authority on this squad.
The only mentions of Rowley are coming from supporters of the champions-elect.Maybe I was right along
