No Smith wont come over, shame. It was only for about two months towards the end of 2006. i dont think we set the league on fire or anything in that time, and I suspect my rose tinted view of the spell is tainted because we beat saints in something like the second game he was here and then thumped the giants. (no chance or either of those results at the mo

)

...still dont think Cullen is the answer though even if McNamara walked, I like the [iidea [/iof Hanley or McDermott but Im not convinced either would be guaraneteed to do better with our current resources.




McNamara just needs time lad, just needs time - keep the faith and he too could yet unify us all.

He was here for 12 games in that time we won 7 drew 1 and lost 4.

cheers for that. Tell you what, I'd take that form now.

I can`t actually believe i sat through 80 minutes of that game. We were utter trash.

Have to say the only player that is playing well is Platty and that saying something, the rest of the team are clueless, its about time macca got some bottle and started dropping these players and start bringing some of the academy side in and show how the game is played, put it this way we can`t play any worst than that display tonight it was embarrasing.

I had alot of faith with Macca but its time he was on his way, we have done nothing in the 3 years and will we not win anything if he stays.

I hate to say it but i hope macca resigns monday morning.

Morrison filled in at hooker late on in the game, maybe we could try it next week?

You're taking the aren't you?

Sorry but that won't mae a difference you'll still have the same coach running it. You can have the fastest racehorse but with out the right jockey you won't win the race.

I thought he did OK.

One thing I don't understand is, why didnt McNamara tell the Burgess, Scruton, Worrincy etc. to run at Sam Tomkins. Teams do it to Deacon, why not capitalise on a players size?

To be fair, I thought he was one that came out with any credibility tonight. He certainly looked better than the last two games.

Does anyone actually think Cullen would be an even vaguely good idea?

It would be like Warrington in 18 months time looking to replace Jimmy with McNamara on the basis that Jimmy has had two years of failure and McNamara is now unemployed and has recent experience of coaching in SL, conveniently overlooking the fact that McNamara, like Cullen, is only unemployed because he's got a solid gold proven track record of not being good enough.

Cullen would be a massive, massive, gigantically huge sign of a club that was no longer concerned with progressing.

He did, but I stand by my original comment in that he is well and truely poor and still seems to have a lack of interest in returning the ball.

Cullen would be no better than McNamara IMO.

They did. But our passing and plays are so slow Wigan were always able to give him help on the inside we could never isolate him one on one.

I disagree people seem to forget about the good job he did in his early years.IMO he started to struggle when the club started to sign big name players.

Oh, i didn't see it that often that's all. Btw red, Feka was a bit more dangerous than you and I predicted, must have put a couple of stone on.

I get the impression, the more I read my posts that I'm talking with my blinkers on.

I'd be much more excited if McDermott ended up coming to the club though

Well, that was pants . . . . .

Regardless of tonights injuries we were already well on the way to a loss when they arrived, IMHO, anyway.

Seemed like there was a more or less total lack of interest / motivation / urgency / game plan throughout the team.

Oh, what I'd give to have had 16 more players with some of the attributes that Morrison's displayed tonight . . . . . we probably wouldn't have won anyway, but at least we'd have tried

So he's a good coach as long as the players aren't sufficiently good. Hmmm....

Well put it this way he was the only player that wore the RBA shirt with pride tonight the rest were shocking.

I see where you're going with that one.

Morrison, Menzies and Burgess all wore it with pride, you could tell they were actually trying and had the heart unlike most others.

Steady on M.E. . . . . you're going to burst a blood vessel or do yourself a mischief
