It will also get worse. If Toulouse win today and go level with Leeds on points, it’s entirely feasible, in fact I’d say likely, that after our next league game (against Saints), Leeds will go bottom of the league on points difference.

Here's a question: were Leeds to dump cas out of the cup then dismantle Saints in the league, would Agar be worth a reprieve?

If I win the lottery should I get a swimming pool and a jet or buy an island? (I never buy a ticket and have as much chance)

No, but you’d then wake up and realise you’re going to be late for work.

Toulouse have won.

There may be trouble ahead…

You need to increase your medication.

Good for the comp at least. We are in relegation diff right ……again….!
Incredible for a club our size and so will resourced. Just can’t get me noggin around it….

Going down!!

You mean he’s already been sentenced?

Based on the suggestions I’m seeing from Leeds fans on social media regarding who should be our next head coach, I’m almost praying for the live of God, Allah or whoever, that Agar stays.

Don’t read Facebook Gary!

Ryan Bailey mentioned something about Hanley or Sinfield taking over from Agar in the next few weeks. I'm not sure if he's suggesting it or saying it's definitely happening

Yes I've been reading that .I wonder he knows behind the scenes that the club are actively looking for a coach and these are the names he's heard ? I cant see Sinfield coming it looks like he's enjoying a career change. Hanley though might be hankering to getting back into the game.

I think his post is just bad English.
Says ‘will be good to see……’
When intending to say ‘would be good to see….’

Hi Kev

With Toulouse, Cas and Wakefield all looking better than us its getting to the stage where sticking with Agar is a bigger risk than making a change. Joint bottom of the league with the worst scoring record. The sooner the whole club gets over its fixation with mates, DNA (and frankly thinking any players from the Golden Generation can be a solution) the better.

Sinfield is probably lost to RU permanently. He'll earn far more there than in RL with far more jobs available as well.

Nah Sinfield will make a decision on his Leicester future at the end of the season.

Isn't he only interested in the DoR role at Leeds?

I cant see Kevin returning to Leeds just yet, if ever, and i hope he doesnt anytime soon. He doesnt deserve this current poop show again.

Going on the Warrington board at the minute provides some comfort. Who will pick up the next available prop, us or them...

Probably them if we are honest.

Thinking about the way forwards, I think GH and Agar together should announce that Agar will become DOR at the end of this season, and confirm we are formally starting the process of recruiting a new Head Coach for next season. This will take the sting out of the situation, removing the constant calls for Agar to go because we know he will, and the players should be told that they are all playing for their roles under the new coach or a new contract if out of contract like Austin for example.

Then we can invite applicants, and if the right person becomes available before the end of the season then they can start early. In any case we should know who will be Head Coach next year before the end of this season, and the recruitment can be planned with them as part of the decision making group.

That could work, but there could also be a problem with a lame duck coach like Wigan under Lam last year. Rushing to a new coach could lumber us with a dud on a long-term contract rather than picking the best for the long term. There's no good solution unless someone with real clout could come in just for this season.

This seems a sound plan.Let's not forget we have several players coming out of contract,three of them overseas,so that should give a new coach some wriggle room in bringing in new fresh blood.What may hamper Leeds NRL recruitment is the Dolphins sucking up excess talent,so pickings are likely be thin on the ground.Hopefully we can steer clear of a Kear type of appointment.

What an absolute mess we'v got ourselves in. Too many jobs given to too many people for all the wrong reasons.

Leeds 'DNA'
Jobs for the boys
'Spirit of the Rhinos' manufactured bulls**t

It all needs to stop, the way out of this mess is simple, yet we'v done everything but for years...We need to Hire the best possible people for each specific role, with CV's deeper than just... played for the club or part of the family. That dosnt necessarily need to be a CV at the very highest level of winning trophys, just that theres a clear history of performing well in that role and overseeing impressive results in that role in the past...Watson at Salford, Smith at Huddersfield spring to mind as people getting more out of a group of players than the sum of there parts.

At the risk of sounding repetitive, our u16's coach is the only coach in our whole system with a track record of success and a reputation as one of the best in the country at what he does, thats bloody shambolic for a club our size.

Agar needs to go - think he knows that himself, grew to like him, but his times up. Think the depleted squads actually benefited him in the past, with a fullish squad at his disposal, his limitations have been exposed, some of his decision making has been infuriating.

Long needs to go - Attack is comically bad, criminal that we actually pay him a wage for what we serve up with the ball.

JJB Needs to go - Defence not much better than attack, too much nostalgia, not enough ability.

Walker needs to go - Absolutely useless imo, our players look better at 16 than they do at 18, intakes that hammer everyone at scholorship, struggle regularly once they get to the Academy and Walker.
