| Leeds have gone backwards this year at an alarming rate under McClennan
But at least the players like him.

There were positives from our performance, I think it will give us the confidence to improve in performances and results. Whilst neither team were excellent in attack, I believe defence wise we both did pretty well and Bradford should be able to kick on from this. A win against the back-to-back champions would put confidence in any side.

You were 10 times better in the first half against Catalans. And twenty times better for 70 minutes of the game against Cas. I saw both.
That back to back champions you talk of were a distant memory on that performance last night.

I seriously wonder what this style of play is? One up rugby doesn't work any more ask the Bulls. Do you seriously think any team can become unbeatable? Sheer believist madness. What on earth is " instead gratification success" ??

You're picking on an individual ruling and calling it incorrect out of a 80 minute refereeing performance.
I'm sure we could all do that but to what end?

| I am all for Leeds 'peaking at the right time' (won't all the other teams also be doing this or is this a unique insight to the Leeds coaching staff?). However we are all paying customers and it would be good to see some half decent rugby before late August early September!!
BTW if we keep playing like last night (no disrepect to a genuiney ordinary Bradford) then we may indeed peak at the right time but be so far off the pace as to make a trip to OT too big an ask let alone winning it.
We really need to be winning scrappy crappy games like the Odslum one. As for the reffing debate waste of breath, the stats probably show the misery of poor decisions evening themselves out by the end of the season. We should however be looking to improve our discipline generally

| 10 games ago you were saying how brilliant he is.
Get real. One defeat to the Bulls and a few inept performances does not make a bad coach/team.
This time last year Saints had lost 5 out of 10 league games, and were not playing well. They then won every league game, won the CC and got to the GF, only to be beaten by a better side on the day. If you get to/win the GF this year I bet you won't be saying "Bluey out"

| Start of last season we were awesome, everything clicked. But toward the end of the season we let it slip, to the point that many of us turning up at Old Trafford were more hopeful of being crowned champions than expectant. However Bluey coached an impeccable preformance from us that night and lifted the team over the preceding fortnight.
Last year we seem to have had a very consistent starting line up and this season we seem to have more people filling into positions. Perhaps that's why we're not gelling as a team.
I'm hoping Bluey's statements about getting the team to peak at the right time are true and that come October we will be crowned back to back to back champions.
I do think we need to improve our discipline on the field and the amount of questioning officials(other than from the captain) seems to have increased this year too.

| This has to be the worst thread ever. Judge it at the end of the season at the very very earliest. We never won anything under Tony Smith for 2 and a half years after his first year of success.

Tony Smith has a reputation for running a tight ship re discipline. Bluey gives the impression he's more chummyy with the players than TS was. That's not a bad thing perhaps but maybe the squad aren't as concerned about behind the scenes rollickings re discipline than they were under Tony? Just a thought.....that said I wouldn't change Bailey's discipline in the league match against Saints

We still have nearly the same 13 that 3 years ago would have blown that rather average bradford team off the park last night. Its as though McClennan is trying to get the team to play his style of rugby league which lets be honest aint working. Last night for example we threw the ball about like the leeds we know and twice bradford couldnt get near us.

He's doing his best with what he's got...however we started the season obviously lacking in the three-quarters, and it shows...time we forgot about the NZ back row road-hog, and started looking for a Centre
