Another fun day to be had by all yesterday





just depressing, we usually wait until at least June before these performances start to happen.

How many times, since the start of the 2018 season (when the rot first began), have we conceded 50pts? I confess, I've lost count!

We change the coach, we change the players, we change the backroom staff, but no-one seems capable of stopping these capitulations from happening.

Four head coaches, if we include Last, and still we have to sit there watching these horror shows unfold. Something badly wrong is obviously deeply entrenched at the club for it to be happening with this regularity.
All teams can have a bad day, that's the nature of modern-day rugby, but we have them too often for it to be explained away as simply a bad day at the office.

Only time will tell if TS is the man to root out this malaise once and for all, we will have an answer to that over the coming months, but this morning it feels like nothing has changed since the dreadful second half of last season.

Salford on there a few times



Must love playing us?

Seems to be against the teams that have pace and like play expansively, our army of plodders can't match it

Yes, we've lost six out the last eight against them now although ironically the two wins were comfortable, 35-4 and 48-16.

Exactly that, a quick scoot out of dummy half and we are done

Whos been at the club for all these years of hammerings is interesting reading in my opinion.

2017: Houghton, Griffin, Taylor, Fash and Shaul and Carlos who are yet to play this year.

2018: Lane and Scott got squad numbers as youngsters. 2019 Savelio joined the club.

So thats 9 players with 4 years plus experience of a bad culture. And some of the younger players will have been about in the youth teams. Is that too many still sticking around?

Writing was on the wall against Cas when we shipped in 30 point in one half , Then nearly 40 points against the Dragons . The trajectory was only going one way !!. To pinch a line from Gus Gould ," they could declare by half time " next Friday .

Said for a while that's the problem

The same players they are the problem

Until we get rid of them it will keep happening

The answer in one word Pearson

He has made mistakes, which owner hasn't, hudgill certainly has and even Mcmanus has at Saints.

Still achieved more at Hull than most SL owners.

The other person who has been a constant throughout those years but gets overlooked is Gaz Ellis. Either as a ‘leader’ on the pitch or as defence coach. Absolutely loved him as a player but may be time for a change of scenery for him.
