Can understand where Chris is coming from and I also do have a number of concerns-I thought to some degree we was lucky at Widnes and the win papered over some of the cracks-poor defence, Attack mis-firing etc. However is airing them on here the right way? No right or wrong answer for me. People have different thoughts on this. I would have asked Player X if he had shared his concerns with the Coaching Staff-not just MC as well as other players. Surely its only these people than can change things IF (not doubting you or the player) and when problems occur. You are always going to have problems to a certain extent with 20 odd players and no Second team. I can imagine certain fringe players not being happy after a while. But they had a big chance to impress on Sunday-and blew it!

Fair point mate, I am not a RL player and never was but have been watching the game all my life and I do know one thing - it is full of very unprofessional and selfish people who want their own way and start saying stuff when its not going their way = players.
Now I am not saying all Chris and others have heard is not true but funny how last year all was well in the camp and now a few players are unhappy, you got to ask why do they tell speccies should it not be 'what goes on the mile stays on the mile?'
Now I must also add that the clubs themselves are not as professional as they should be its one of the reasons why RL is still a minority sport imo.
I must add there is not the money in the game to do what football does!

Now now everyone lwts not start arguements this early in the season eh.

I think its fair enough Chris has concerns. Lets just consider it from a different point of view though. This 'certain player' has raised concerns etc so fair enough to post on here if you wish. However looking at it from a different angle, its difficult for a coach to get it right by everyone, not all players will get on as well with the coach as everyone else, think of your own work place and after a bad day people like to have a moan. It wouldn't have been good if the player had been all happy and jokey after a terrible game so maybe that had something to do with it. If not and the player is unhappy it doesn't mean everyone else is so lets try not to worry so much. On the same matter though i do find it a little odd that players say things like this to fans but thats just me!

On the similar rumour mill topic if someone hears rumours and wants to post i have heard someone is leaving, or whatever, you may as well post saying who or not bother posting because it least it may seem a little more factual then. Again just my view.

Anyway Fax onwards and upwards, i'm sure it will take a lot of character to come back from this in a positive manner but come on put these rumours to bed.

can't believe you had to play on Sunday, after a 'tough' game at Widnes on thursday.
Hunslet got lucky, now you are gonna take it out on us on Sunday - NOT HAPPY !

Think there is a lot of speculation and crap on here at the moment and think discussing this on here just adding credability to it.

Widnes are not going on about the rumours of Thackeray going to Catalans. They wait till its announced...
