I have nowt against Brown, and rate him highly, he did a fantastic job for us but it just ended badly, but like Anderson, he couldn't get us over the line in terms of trophies, and yes he got us to a cup final, but so did Jon Sharp.'"
We have been consistent under PA that is true enough, consistent in the brand of football played for the most part, which if you measure the team by where they finish the season you will be happy with. Consistently losing fans as well, which Mr Davy will definitely not be happy with, and to be fair the very fact we are losing fans would seem to suggest the situation will not go on indefinitely.

Anderson actually won something, Brown didn't. Remember 2013? A season and a half after he left Anderson bettered what brown achieved in the league. Yes he got us to a CC final but so did Sharp if we are making comparison's. By your math brown and sharp are as good as each other.

Tbf that squad we had out was pretty good- barring huby I'm not convinced any others would have made a difference or is everybody praying for grix to come back now.....

you missed the bit where i said a settled side! including ellis/brough playing together again and having crabtree/rapira/smith/huby (that wont happen this season)
a few other positions too , its like new partnerships every week
widnes are doing well, they have their number one fullback/ half backs / forwards / hookers all fit...but will they cope with injjuries like ours? not many teams would, look at leeds!

spot on is that you cant really blame anderson for injuries we just need to get a settled side now and the wins will come looking forward to seeing how brierley will play with brough in theory they should compliment each other well

Halves Brough and Ellis/briely
props eorl Rapira
2nd row wardle taai
Hooker hinchliffe
Loose Bruno
Bench huby Johnson wood Roberts
And they lose 5 games I will be asking questions about the coach! Atm our combinations are all over the place.
However out intensity and discipline is shocking!

| Please no more Simpson!
So basically just Wardle and Eorl would have made all the difference?

If Simpson can emulate the three games he had last year yes
Eorl and to join huby and Rapira so we have three out and out props yes
Joe on the left to allow the partnership grow between Connor and smurth and himself yea
I did mention ollie Roberts who has looked good and caused problems
I also said 5 games with the same squad. Cohesion in attack and defence is built over time!
The different combinations Ect are causing defence and attack break down!

agreed about the combos and not having a settled team.
and about the intensity today and discipline that has been a problem for years at the giants.

| I'm not one for sacking coaches, as i believe the players escape far from criticism than they should get.
The coach doesn't drop balls, miss tackles or not muscle up in defence, that is upto the players, as is showing pride in the shirt.
Anderson is going to be under pressure no doubt, but i always believe a coach/manager should be given time to turn things round, Nathan Brown couldn't and he was off, Anderson should at least be given the chance to turn things around, once we get our players back and get a settled side.

| I'm sure Baloo is just as fed up/annnoyed/disappointed/angry etc as most fans are right now....he can only pick a team based on who is available, clearly the players are not performing at the moment and as has been mentioned there is not settlement, no cohesion this season due to players missing etc.

Why? Don't get me wrong I'm as disappointed as the next but why? You don't turn up with the right attitude then there's a good chance you get beat not matter who you are playing.
The combination things been mentioned, but we are a small squad low on numbers, playing poorly. There's no one to push for places, mediocrity is unable to be dealt with at this time, just got to ride it out.

| giantsgaz, don't mean to sound rude, but you come across as been 12 or something and think that because you think a team should beat a certain team that that should happen and throws a paddy if you don't get your way lol.
We have no right whatsoever to beat Wakefield, yes on paper our team is better but that doesn't give you the right to win.
Wakefield won the game because they did things better than our players did,I'm pretty sure Anderson didn't tell those players to lose today, or drop the ball, or miss tackles or put poor kicks in etc.
And i would ask this, as i did on one of the facebook groups, would another coach or perhaps one of the coaches on here, have done any better with the disruptions we've had to, not only the squad, but to the team each week, how can we develop partnerships etc when players have different guys alongside them each week, it's a big part of what happens during games, you have to trust your inside and outside guys, and you can only develop that by playing with them and building up a relationship etc, how Baloo can be blamed for that is beyond me.

Maybe the players had that attitude too and that's one of the reasons we didn't !!
The players have to perform on the day to get the wins ...the coach does his work before the game and the players have to do theirs on gameday - if not, we lose !!

It's the coach's job to get the players physically and mentally prepared for a tough game every game. For all we did not perform today we had the chance when a few points adrift to roll up our sleeves and push on.
There has been something wrong all season, rumours of Brough been unhappy, the lack of spine and backbone in the team when it gets tough.
The coach seems to have lost the dressing room to me I hope not but if it's true there's no way back and the lack of spine and leadership on and off the field reminds me of the latter days of Nathan Brown and we hung on to him too long. We have only 17 games to get out of this hole time is a luxury neither the coach or club have left in abundance action is required soon, if we lose on Monday it's time for a change.
Watch the crowds dwindle in the middle 8's the Only decent gate will be if we fall into the £1 million game !!

Just as a matter of interest meast what would you say Baloo can be held responsible for, Bearing in mind the praise he get's for us being in the top 4 and winning the Hubcap, Just exactly what do you see his job as.

Trouble is , when crowds dwindle as they have been doing for the last three years, It's nothing to do with performances or style of football, It's just the public of Huddersfield who don't deserve a club.

The right attitude and preparation to take on the field.
Appoint the right captain.
Create the team spirit to dig deep in times of strife.
Recruit correctly both team and back up staff.
It's a results based business and 1-6 is not acceptable.
Our downfall apart from the Luke ODonnell era is we lack a physical leader and someone who will take n the opposition. From a player like Anderson this beggars belief as both the Bulls and Saints intimidated teams like us.
We should send him to Honley at half time because every match we get worse after them the Catalans being the most recent example.
