Probably like the old Soviet Union tractor plan, lots of planning with no end result. .

Sometimes it’s worth coming on here for these little gems alone ! We browse the forum for the Rohan Smith debate, Matt Frawley’s kicking ability (or not) ….. and we get the Soviet Union tractor plan. Made my night that.

I’d be asking Uncle Tony to come in and support Rohan for rest of the season. We need an experienced head…..

Backwoodsman - agreed and all for a good cause - lets hope we get some entertainment as well for the
next 5 months.

I think this year's merch isn't too bad, it's better than some of the guys ability wearing the merch on the pitch anyway!!

Jason Demetriou anyone?

He would certainly get an easier time here with regards to press questions

So you make excuses for when we win, but don't accept them when we lose? That doesn't seem logically consistent.

The point was that the timing of when a coach is hired, is just as important as who the coach is.

Powell was the right coach in 2002, but he wasn't in 2004. McClennen was the right man in 2008 to take over fromTS, but it was time for a change when McDermott came in.

Millward was great at Saints, but terrible at Wigan. Tim Sheens is one of the greatest coaches of all time at Canberra and initially at Wests, but was poor at KR. Tony Smith was superb at Leeds and Warrington, and good at KR, but Hull have been dreadful with him in charge. Does that make them bad coaches, or are they the wrong coach at the wrong time?

I'm very sceptical about RS, and I highly doubt he's the right coach for where we are now, as a club, but I definitely don't think he's a bad coach.

Off goes his head on goes a turnip!

Hudds are spanking Catalans in France tonight. We will really need to improve for next Friday night.
