| Quote: Mild Rover "When we're winning that stuff becomes endearing.
He endured a tough start but 6 from 7 (the defeat coming away at SL's best team at this moment) is quite a response. I'm not going to get carried away thinking it is all jam from here, but he's shown he's resilient and can deal with and overcome adversity.
I guess Disco Dave's Derby Dash will live longer in the memory, but Scott Taylor's two tries @ Salford was maybe when we turned the corner (?).'"
I think the way we played against Hull whilst Dobson was in the sin bin may have been a big factor in our turn around too,

| Actually, I believe that it was after the derby at the KC that things turned around. The riot act was obviously issued and everything upped a pace (along with the return of Blake, although our injured again now).
We have lost one game in the last seven, and that was away at Wigan. In the end that was a respectable score as well, much better than most are getting from the Pie Eaters at the moment.
Please don't forget that at the start of the season, we had loads of injuries, loads of new players and a new coach. It was always going to take time to get into their stride.
And as for people saying that Huddersfield looked poor, nobody has actually pointed out that they were poor because we made them look ordinary rather than them just being generally poor which they weren't at the start of the game.

| I believe the turnaround was when we got Galea & Green back got a little confidence into our game and the rest is history.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| We'll need a speculation thread as well as a rumour thread at this rate.
I believe the turning point was when I changed which turn style I enter the ground at for the London game, that and predicting we'll lose every week.

I would sooner see a coach / manager show a bit of passion rather than just sit there with his hands on his thighs..

Totally agree, it's nice to think it means as much to them as it does us supporters.

| The turning point IMO was Salford. Could see what winning that game meant to the players.

| Sanders is a people person and a great communicator on a one to one basis.
Players improve both on and off the field because he can get through to them what needs to be done.
The player he had most involvement with at Newcastle was Aku Uate, who went from a freak athlete and lousy footballer to the best winger in the world with lots of input from Sanders, and is currently going backwards rapidly. Uate has let in 3 soft tries in the two SOO games because his positional play has gone back to where it was pre-Sanders, and he'll be lucky to hold his spot.
I don't know anything about how Sanders goes with game plans etc, but it's absolutely no surprize that players are improving as the season goes on. Uate is as dumb as a plank, and he taught him how to play.

| That's quite interesting roopy sum of us and I was one of them wasn't sure about sandercock but the last few games I have watched our players that imo have improved and the stand out one for me is Dobbo, he's become really vocal his tackling has improved and when he takes on the line that's sum thing else, if the players can keep up with the attitude they have now there is no reason why this wouldnt be our most successful year in SL since we came back up, so if Newcastle nights don't want uate put him on the next plane over here.Roops do u still get to see SL games in Aus and if so what's ur thoughts.

2 more questions if you don't mind.
1 how do we pay for them when you consider that the Aus cap has pretty much doubled overnight, There is the fact that the AUD is far stronger against the GBP, The tax haven loopholes have been shut which when all taken into account would IMHO mean that good players will now cost around 2.5 times more than they did and we have a salary cap to stick too.
2 Don't you think it would be a better idea long term to focus a hell of a lot more on making our homegrown figures and players better as that is proven to be the best idea (Look to Leeds, Saints and Wigan as proof).
