For me only Lino came out of that game with a modicum of respect , the rest should hang their heads in shame . Absolutely clueless in attack and dire in defence, we made leigh look like an NRL team that second half ,with their attacking prowess up against our abysmal defence .

It would appear that our coach does not think some of the players are of an acceptable standard for SL. He wants to build the team around players like Kershaw, Whitbread and Hewitt despite the latter only being on loan.
He is going nowhere so it’s up to those who appointed him in haste to do so but do we believe they will because who would want to take on the basket case that is Wakefield Trinity. I am sure the only thing stopping Carter from taking on the coaches position is that he lacks the necessary qualifications to do so.

https://www.totalrl.com/mark-applegarth ... -drubbing/ The book stops squarely on Applegarth and the owners for letting this turd show carry on. Say what you want about the players, but they are employees, it is down to the coach to address this dross show. I’d rather watch us get beat 60-0 with a bunch of academy lads actually playing with passion and pride then a lot of these wage stealers currently getting into our team week in week out clearly without competition. We are going down, I’ve come to terms with that. We have no money, we have a mid/top table championship squad, with an inexperienced coach at this level.

Agree re Lino, I’m not a huge fan of his but he is a big step up on the other “halves” we have at the club.

Need to look at Jowitt at 6 when he is fit because our other options are dire.

Utterly pathetic. The absolute worst performing team i have ever seen in my 40 years watching them, and we've had some stinkers. The whole job lot of them top to bottom can go for me and we start again.

Anybody who defends what we are seeing week in week out needs to seek medical help. It is beyond atrocious.

Sadly the imports (with the exception of Lino and Whitbread) are either over the hill burnt out ‘has beens’ or sub standard players who have no heart for the fight and are just going through the motions.

Relegation is probably needed to reset, have a massive clear out, get in an experienced, well respected coach and build up a squad of young talented players from across the U.K..

The money wasted on the imports must be phenomenal…. Tanginoa (sell him now before he leaves for nothing!!), Proctor, Taufua, Langi (all 3 will probably retire at end of season especially the first 2 who are shadows of the players they once were), Atoni (all the tools but the heart the size of a pea), Whitbread (no doubt will get picked up by Cas after 1/5 for next season)..

Good points there, but did you forget the most important change of all. Get a CEO and director of rugby who actually have a clue about the game.
