a few weeks ago I asked the question, were the players playing to get him sacked.
it was misread, I was accused of making a statement. I didn't.
but rapido, it has happened before and it wouldn't shock me if it was happening now

I’m pleased this day for Mark Applegarth he is clearly a decent guy, doing a tough job in difficult circumstances… with some luck he could have had one or two more wins… and the table would look more interesting…

Does that mean he is a first grade Rugby league coach??

Not on the evidence I have seen so far, but training should be a happier place this week.

arthur, I have no idea who is rated or available in Australia. over here there's little quality and even less available.
but it's not my job to know.
I do know, and it's my opinion and I've said it for a while, smith simply isn't good enough. and his left field ideas don't work. I know you disagree and I've no issues with that. it's a forum. we all have different views.
long may that continue

2 weeks off now, let's hope some of the injured players are back for HKR. Also they come back with the desire and enthusiasm shown by all those guys today.

Think you are being kind when you say Dwyer has been disappointing.
Call a spade a spade.
Houghton is the much better nine and far better when managed correctly with his on field minutes but Smith is slowly doing what others have previously done and starting to play him for 80 minutes.
Cant see the nine positions changing to introduce the likes of Balmforth or Lovodua as Smith seems very dogmatic as we have seen with the continued use of Lane.

We had Ashton and Thewlis, who are no slouches and we didn't get either one into space during the entire game. Thewlis did it all on his own. Yet, Huddersfield carved us open down our left with far too much ease.

Glad it’s between Wakey and Cas. Still think Wakey will go down, unless RFL do the dirty and they deem Post Office Road isn’t a suitable ground.

The way things are going would we be happy with Greenwood/Nobby at the helm for the rest of the year?

For Saints to win a 5th on the trot.

Look at the table. The teams above them are all gutless pretenders who will crumble when the pressure is really on and it’s not just pissant league games.

It’s so predictable it’s painful.

“It’s the most important coaching appointment in my time at Leeds”(words to that effect). He said before eventually appointing Smith.

He got it wrong.

Best half of the season for me, particularly in defence. Let's not let them back in this!

Seems quite a competitive game generally but although we have done a lot of attacking we are incapable of getting the ball down and have made a few errors when scoring was easier. It is what it is.

I think the policy at the minute (rightly or wrongly) seems to be signing players from the NRL with something to prove and if they go back then they've obviously done a good job here as opposed to players on a possible final payday.

Whatever we do forward wise needs to work though as that's the one thing holding us back I feel.

leeds are 1/7 ON at the bookies. I've tipped leeds and I fully expect a win.

I’ve watched the team at Wembley… and finish 12th in the second division…I’ve seen Fox, Topliss, Gerard, Lewis, Price and Ella in the RWB …I’ve seen stands demolished and ownership changed… charlatans and heroes amongst them…I’ve felt elation and despair… I’ve sponsored and volunteered… one thing I’ve never done is…’plotted’… maybe I should try it???

So is this the first season where we see the intended effect of the Salary Cap? So many games that can’t be called, a real squeeze at the top which I can’t remember ever seeing this far into a season. Leigh doing fantastically well based on recruitment of some expensive players and some not so expensive (their reserve team perhaps belongs on a different topic).
Wakefield who we all assume are nowhere near Salary Cap limit well adrift.
All makes for an interesting 2nd “stanza” as a certain bald commentator used to say. Читать дальше...

This whole 69 page thread has reminded me of something a famous Welsh rugby player who played RL for a while (for the money) once said at my local RFC- 'I think Union and League fans have alot in common. They are both obsessed with Union.'

Newman, Sezer and possibly Simpson in the backs and Tetavano, Holroyd, Gannon and Lisone in the forwards.
6 of those would be playing Sunday
Only 3 props in the 17 and remember we have Olpherts probably in that 17.
Admittedly you have a bucket load missing too.
Like I said two poor teams and anything can happen on the day especially in the heat especially if one team goes down to 12 men.
