Good post that lad. And comes from a fan of a club that has consistency stamped all over it.

| Quote FFA="FFA"Bang on with this one game too many rubbish, we've hardly played more games than Sheffield. We were just exposed today by a far better, more entertaining outfit who knew how to attack and defend neither which we have got right bar a handful of games. We've been involved in so many dreadful games i've lost count and our attacking play needs a whole revamp, its slow, one paced and generally dull and our defence today was nothing short of disgraceful and i hope they know they've let a lot of people down today we at least deserve commitment and that was lacking in abundance
I'd look at a winger to replace Reittie who is a joke of a player at times offers nothing only making yards in 'easy' games and never looks like scoring a try. A couple of centres who have a bit of pace and power, always preffered Paterson on the wing and Tyrer doesn't really cut it for me as a top class centre. Heaton is probably too slow for the backs really
The half backs need seriously looking at handforth is just not good enough for me especially at stand off, bang average at controlling a game and doesn't create tries how many times have we seen a centre or winger get put away ala Holroyd or Branighan. We never have a move of any sort and he can't use his line to save his life but he gets away with it being by doing one or two good things per game which blind many fans to his deficiencies. Thackery is a support player and unfortunately the best part of his game is his kick chase
The forwards have been half decent; Ambler and Barlow are good players at this level and Divorty has been impressive. Ashall fell away dramatically and Robinson is abit of a flat track bully at times making yards in easier games while falling away in tough game, but all have shown they are good enough at times. Manning has been far and away most impressive for me
We'll miss Penky hugely as again he's been our only real creative outlet at times with Gannon been consistent once more. I'd look at releasing Bowman as he seems to be going nowhere with us, needs to play some regular games in a regular position but as a half back he isn't creative enough (probably not even near a danny jones level player which is saying something) and Casey has shown up half decent in last few weeks at second row before today but has had a poor season on the whole.
Overall would be looking at:
1 or 2 centres
A winger
2 half Backs
1 hooker
1 or 2 Prop/Second Rows'"
Sounds to me like poor coaching.

| Quote a.n Other="a.n Other"After performance by the team like that, and you pick Worrincy out? He is still our best winger by far, and still one of the best wingers in the League. I hope you dont buy a season ticket next year, as it will mean that we still have Rob in the team.'"
If he is our best winger we are in real trouble...the guy did not want to play. At one point they were abot to play the ball and he was strolling back to his line playing with another ball...that is one ofthe reasonsi dont want him back. He "would not" tackle Yere, if he had tried i would not of minded but he seemed to just let him run past him the whole game...never mind his catching abaility, which is one of the most important parts of Rugby and he cant do it. He has been a waste of a great potential talent |

| Quote chris_smith="chris_smith"In all honesty this performance is like many this season but previously its been against poorer opposition and we've undeservedly stolen a last gasp win. Yes the league is competitive but when we've played the good teams weve looked pretty average at times. I'd say we've probably only put in one complete 80 minute performance all season and that was at Blackpool. We need that intensity every week or close to it.
For me York away was poor, Leigh at home, both Keighleys at home, Swinton away, I could worryingly go on and name a few more. However for me this year has been for the majority pretty disappointing with only glimpses of promise. However I will judge on what goes on next year as the team transition into a new era, coach etc was a big shift from the old culture and Rome wasn't built in a day.
Our half backs were my biggest disappointment as they simply have mis-fired all season and never really looked like clicking. Plus our offload and phase 2 has been in the main poor. The one thing I expected to improve but at times has also been woeful is the defence and in particular goal line defence, this has been at times abysmal. The major worry now is that our main game breaker has now gone and on today's performance nobody else out there will take that mantle so I hope they have a master stroke of a replacement lined up!!
Had this not been Harrison's first season In charge as well as being a cult hero at Fax I think questions would be getting asked about the way the season has limped and stuttered along. Remember We used our get out of jail card to reach the NRC final and things could have been very different.
Today we absolutely lacked enthusiasm and motivation and I'm always concerned when a team look disinterested and unmotivated on the field. To me a coach also motivates his team and installs belief and passion so where was it today??
Don't get me wrong I'm not pushing the panic button and I believe (hope) that Karl is the right man to take us forward. I think after a year in charge though he probably now realises the task he has to get us anywhere near Fevs consistency end fluidity on the pitch is a big one.
Overall 5/10 for me for the season and fingers crossed for a few changes. I think we just need a few Tweeks here and their but next year needs to be much more consistent on the field.
Leigh I think have overtaken us as their halves and Pivots for next year are quality.
Big improvement required.'"
100% agree. |

the 'attempted' tackle on yere was appalling but there were many worse players than worrincy who IS without a doubt our best winger. |

I wouldn't have him back, he still can't catch and he didn't attempt to tackle Menzie once.
Although his pass to Scott Turner for our 4th try was sublime  |
