If Gidley was british he'd be nowhere near the side. Stinks to high heaven this season.

Really? What about Westwood?! Send him out to stud with a cup of cocoa

Jesus, one of the few bright lights of the season, the latest Smith scapegoat. The man has totally lost it

Smith IN... I'm sorry to all those who want his head on a stick- but that tonight was not down to him. It was the players who let us down- the errors they are making are amateurish at best

Smith/Agar out - they assembled the squad, they train the squad, they pick the team.

Where is Patten?

They assembled a squad who all knew how to handle the bell. The players are the big let down here. Tony Smith doesn't throw thebsll away

I'm sorry but I disagree - as the saying goes, "There's none so blind as those who will not see"

But you look at the stats and we are nowhere near the worst for missed tackles or penalties even allowing for the fact we have played a game fewer than most. We are second in the error count behind Leigh who ripped us a new one last week. The players are clearly refusing to play for Smith and we can't sack the players.

Sorry but we aren't that good. No where near that good. Miles off.

How many of our backline would get into Wigan or Castlefords team? None.

Oh I dunno, I think one or two might at the moment...though admittedly only because we have Tomkins, Burgess, Manfredi, Tierney, Gelling and Gildart out injured...

Ridiculous statement that the players are clearly refusing to play for Smith: that's your interpretation, but is based on no fact other than what you perceive. And I'm pretty sure we can sack any player we want!

Re: Smith Out : Fri Mar 24, 2017 11:28 pm  

Never mind Patton and Savelio, I must admit I am intrigued as to how useless Matty Russell can get without being dropped. In fact I can't offhand ever remember him being dropped as opposed to being injured.
