einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:



We're missing Mulhearn big time and Jewitt to a lesser extent Mose is good when he wants to be but last night he didn't seem to fancy it we needed his big runs when we where penned back but he just passed it on and to me Scruton is finished he hasn't offered much at all this year and these two are our main props at the moment

I have faith in Sheens but must admit it is slowly but surely fading away. Not only is it the way we're playing but the rumoured signing targets and past signings since he's been in charge have and are woeful. What on earth went through his mind to sign walne? How are we in the position to be fielding Clarkson and Tickle as our starting back rowers?!? It's beyond a f@@@ing joke! Size has become a huge thing now with modern day rugby and sheens chooses to start shaw who offers less than my dead Nan when coming out of our half and moss who must weigh the same as a 12 year old girl. Desperately need a new winger with size to get us going along with Carney, play atkin is his best position, getting rid of deadwood like scruton, walne, kav, Clarkson, tickle and Blair who's gone 2 seasons too long for me. The squads just a joke from top to bottom.

Have to disagree about Blair and Kav has surprised me as I think he's decent we were spoilt wingers wise with Mantellato and Sio who were both great at bringing the ball back we have to many average players Huddersfield got the better Walne brother and he can't get a game for them

As much as Sheens’ team selection baffled me, he unfortunately hasn’t got a lot to work with in the way of quality.

The real issue surely lies in the poor recruitment in the offseason and a lack of activity so far this year.

I don’t buy the “we had less time because we were the promoted team” excuse. Look at the players that have moved clubs since the season started. Toronto alone have managed to sign Gareth O’Brien, Chase Stanley & Darcy Lussick, and they’re one of your main rivals. What is Peacock getting paid to do?

Toronto apparently have a metric funtonne of money compared with us. And they’re on the up with tangible evidence of ambition. Fair play to them.

Peacock and I have polar opposite personality types I suspect, so while I completely respect him, I find it very hard to buy in to his philosophy or RL worldview (to the extent he’s revealed it). In fairness though, he inherited plenty of issues, our ineptitude in 2016 was compounded by rotten luck and he deserves his share of the credit for promotion in 2017.

The yards the Hull players made after contact was very impressive in contrast to us on Friday

Definitely. He has our players playing for the shirt, we went down honourably today, taking the form team at home all the way with a banged up squad, injuries on the day and despite 3 sin binnings (I don’t have an issue with the sin bins as decisions, more that we managed to keep it so close despite them). I’ll enjoy being at Wembley as a neautral for the first time in a while.

Based on previous evidence, it’s likely for the best that he stays in the background.

With what’s happened he’s on a bit of a hiding to nothing.
