Re: Smith out ASAP : Thu May 23, 2024 2:28 pm  
I don't think it's all about the style of play the team have adopted. A lot of the errors are simply dumb plays or individuals trying to offload inappropriately or score off every set.

Has the more expansive style been attempted fully since the second Saints game? Maybe Wire? Against London we played relatively controlled and disciplined. And we've not really had the strike in the backs to attempt it more recently. But we're still making error on error.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Re: Smith out ASAP : Thu May 23, 2024 2:45 pm  
Largely agree it's more than just the style of play, this is where I think culture comes into it. We "allow" those mistakes to happen. Players don't seem to be held accountable, it's the same loop. Mistake, finger in the air for 1 minute of extra effort to hold the opposition out (even though I don't see that we put in extra effort then), get the ball back, make a mistake, repeat.

We both agree we have to break the cycle to make any sustainable improvements.

He's a clown. Unfortunately, when he does eventually get sacked, GH will pick his replacement, who has proven time and time again he is finished when it comes to building a successful squad + coach. The blind leading the blind.

Yeah, he’s not turning this around, he might stay for the rest of the season, but he can’t possibly be here next year. The whole back room staff needs to be replaced with hardened professionals who want to win above everything else.

I've said it before but what the hell do they do all week in training? They can't pass, catch,kick. No heart or spirit. X man of Steel obviously a one season wonder and coach way out of his depth. What mess our club is in.

Nah Croft is a quality player playing in a poor team.
