Damian Ball- Thanks for being honest! : Sun Apr 03, 2011 4:36 pm  
Dont listen too much to Radio Rhinos but was interested to see if anything would be said. Damian Ball was being honest and I appreciate that. There was no BS and was straight upfront. I have a lot of time for somebody like that. There was no blaming anybody but us. Thanks Damian. I was a bit disappointed to be honest that Matt Calland did not say anything. It just comes across that he is hiding. But maybe he was giving his players a dressing down.

Something's not right in the squad. Bally said there was a lot of negativity around "for reasons i won't go into".

It doesn't sound good does it? Once you're down at the bottom and confidence is smashed it's a devil of a job to get out. I'm worried i have to say.

Does "a lot of negativity around" mean that Calland has lost the dressing room?
