Only one thing for it... sack the whole coaching staff and start again, they are not good enough with or without McRae and Simms can go with them, stealing a living that bloke, which other club has a position he fills at their club??? They are not fit enough (which was said after the first game in Cardiff) and the defence is the worst in the league by some way (i include a patched up Wakey side in that too) - look at what Quins are doing with good coaching and some belief and unity in the team (not papertalk and other cack being spouted in the M.E.N/Advertiser)

But the Leeds we faced had 7 first teamers missing - and yet we still couldn't give them a decent game - it does show just how far we've got to go. Steve Simms was spot on - you have to play for 80 minutes, we don't seem capable of doing that once the going gets tough

This the worrying thing. A team considerably weakened yet we ended up flogged. If we'd had 7 missing as opposed to 2 then it would have been understandable. As it is it's a worry.

[iLook we have had our usual s@it start to the season nothing new if we are all honest but in saying that I remain confident the tide will turn our way starting next Friday night down at the Willows.

Hull Kingston Rovers: Win
Catalans Dragons: Win
Crusaders: Win
Castleford Tigers: Win
Bradford Bulls: Win

I think people should forget the hype around us having the 'best team in years please buy a season ticket' that the Club spouted. Good marketing yes, close to the truth? No. At least not yet. If you understand that regardless of what team we put out, teams like Leeds, Saints and Wigan are always going to put stronger sides out than us, even if they are full of youth players. After all, those youth players are playing at Wigan, Saints, and Leeds for a reason.

Give it another five games and see where we are. I think that will give a more realistic outlook. Basing judgement on only playing three of the top five sides in SL, a rusty first game at a neutral venue (In Wales against the Welsh) and a poor Wakey side would, imo, be jumping the gun a little.

We said before the season started it was always going to be a very hard start.

Wigan,Saints and Leeds. 3 out of our first 5 games. Can we expect to beat them?

Crusaders have a very good team and were high on confidence after last seasons finish, also they would have wanted to win desperately playing on home soil in Wales.

Wakefield very low on confidence after going into administration and having a very poor squad I think we were always going to win that match.

Next Five...All winnable in my eyes but I would be very happy if we could pick up 3 wins out of those 5 games, anything less ins't good enough if we have any hopes of finishing in the playoffs.

Improve the defence and we will start winning games!
