The problem for me is that last season we had a really weak pack, we were outmuscled too often, we needed to recruit some big lads in the off season, instead of improving the side we've just added some young depth to the squad.

Ahh, another question. What's your opinion of the squad/coaches/performances this pre season. Looking forward to your thoughts.....

Would think this post sums it all up.

It makes me wonder what amount of cap was used tying up Lunt and Campese on long term contracts. Maybe we never had the cap to bring in big quality forwards?

Ok any Australian assistant they seem to come over and do quite well or make campese player coach at least that way when he's injured we still get some value from him

You're the one calling for Chester's head. I'm still waiting to hear who YOU want him replaced with......

It looks that way. Plus, there was never going to be much fed-trained talent available for a bottom half club, I guess.

All that said, from watching the Huddersfield game between my fingers on KRTV and listening today, I think something has gone badly wrong with pre-season. From Chester's interview last week, I think he does too. He looked like a guy who'd forgotten to prepare for a presentation - one that is due to last into the Autumn.

I already replied to that question. And you haven't already noticed, you'll find I'm not alone in calling for his head.
What's your thoughts....

Father Christmas, then if it doesn't work out we can give him the sack before Christmas.

So, you don't know who you want to see replace him then? Why don't you just say so?

Not a good day at the office.
Did they announce the attendance?
Looked down on last seasons friendly

I want Chezzie and Poching out now. Too nice and not tough enough. I expect the board will only act if we get a 0-3 start and the performances remain as dire as they are at the mo.

Even that might be too late. This squad lacks biff, strength, mental fortitude and without Campo, any leadership. I also think deep down that some of these players don't trust one another defensively anymore and as a result our attack is now misfiring.

Another massive prop, big ball carrying second row and a top centre are priorities. Sack Tilse, Allgood, Larroyer, Cockayne and Donaldson. Marsh is not the answer.

Need to go left field on the coach front - Sinfield, Shaun Edwards, Glenn Morrison, Richard Marshall or a big name Aussie.

Think they announced 8900 ish 500 down on last year. As giddy as I am from the high we had today, friendliest do mean nothing. However your players with a couple of exceptions seemed to be going through the motions.

I can't see where our next win is going to come from. It's a good job that we worked on defence since the Huddersfield game or we would have been really hammered. I can't see us progressing under the current regime so we have make a change now. As for a replacement; is Justin Morgan available?

Apologies for my optimism on saying hull would win by 20 to 30 pts,my fear and dread and fedupness on the forth coming season is strong with this one Luke, funtime Frankie you thought I was maybe too pessimistic on said words and you asked me for lottery numbers, tell me your not this way in feeling ever so slightly marginally worried.they have frank the tank we have Mitch the titch (in feckin heart).
