Just like Woolf wasn't a rubbish coach last week when Sts weren't on it, I don't believe Chester is the problem.
If we change we need to go better with an experienced coach, not an assistant trying his hand.

Personally, I still believe we need a midfield general. It will change the team completely. Chester says he's searching for someone.

Ironically, just to add more fuel, I think we are 3 games away from the longest losing run in our history.

If I was short sighted I could become a referee!

There is no point getting a new coach without replacing Clawson

Re: Mindless rugby : Thu Oct 15, 2020 9:42 pm  
That was one of the most impotent performances i have ever witnessed from a Wakefield side. The was nothing to worry Saints at all. One Batchelor break that amounted to nothing apart we asked zero questions, one interception by our on loan winger was the only way we were ever going to avoid a nilling. It is not good enough. The can be no excuse with the build up this week, no players dropping out, settled build up, more or less same team. Yet clueless again. Time to go Chester i’m afraid, you are a man out of ideas.

As has been said, Chester replaced Finn with an even older half, not very forward thinking. Money that could have been spent better.
Chester reminds me of David O'Leary at Leeds, he had a great start, then he ended up buying anyone who was any good irrespective of what position they played.

Do you honestly think one player 'a midfield general' as you put it can change the whole facet of the way we play? The players cart it up in ones for the whole game barely making 5 yards. We play the same way week after week. We produce the odd slightly better performance usually when the opposition are below par a la last week. We are clueless, predictable, unfit, ship tries for fun. If a midfield general can sort that lot out he must be some player!!

Makinson had three free runs at the line, same old winger problem.
Fifita has his head elsewhere.
Walker is a disaster area.
The coaching is embarrassing as is the after match interview.

Re: Mindless rugby : Thu Oct 15, 2020 10:04 pm  
As much as I like my half backs, Lewis and Sterling would have struggled by that inept performance tonight by, what i saw, the front rowers.

It was mentioned earlier in the week about wingers helping out the forwards in running it in, early in the tackle count. Tonight it was nearly every play.

Koppy, Green, Fifita never once looked to have the heart for the battle.

Yes, seriously need an organiser, but just as important, the front row need to take a long look, or we seriously need a clear out in that postion too

Wolf`s team probably performed there worst since he has been in charge and they still won the game, they are Super league champions, we barely scraped SL survival last year and we have a 15% win rate this season, there is a difference is there not?

Saints weren’t on it last week (and still beat us) and Woolf sorted the problem, thus they towelled us this time. Chester has presided over defeat after defeat for over a year and we keep on making the same mistakes. And yet you think Chester isn’t the problem? You are deluding yourself mate. If you think Sam Williams is going to sort this mess out then you are in for a massive disappointment.
