When you look at the 17 today, 10 of them are not the required quality or are leaving anyway. Handley, Sutcliffe, Hall, Moon, Ferres, Ablett, JJB, Dwyer, Walters, Oledzki. Clearly Oledzki can make it but needs to have a season long loan somewhere in the championship (assuming we are not there...) where he can play every week and develop. It's a big ask for kids to develop in a SL team that should have big aspirations when there is so little quality surrounding them.

At the moment we have signed Lolohea, so that's one in. I wonder where the other 9 will come from, if they are the likes of Crosby, Thompson and Luke Briscoe then we really are in for a very long turnaround...

My guess is youll see a maximum of 3 players of the required quality come in. Hard to get many more in one off season

Perhaps a new coach and conditioner - if the 3 are those already around

The conditioner is as much a priority as the coach. Can not believe this has not been changed way before now.

We looked soft, knackered,lazy and disinterested .

Clark again ripped us to bits, we should have been looking to sign him when we had a (slim) chance.

As everyone says, we need a coach that can build a team and get them playing together .

Player wise we need two back rows that are under 30 and can break a tackle, a centre,a prop and if we can, a winger

All need to be very good quality.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall the next time kev and GH meet

Re: CC SF | Warrington Wolves v Leeds Rhinos : Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:12 pm  

We need a coach and someone who is prepared to let half the team know they are no longer required. Simply we are in a dog fight now for survival in SL.
Moon and Parcell their heads are already back home in Aus, KS needs to stop picking them, JJB and Ablett both should be sent home both are passed it, we are so soft through the middle it's unbelievable and while I always would swap SL for Wembley, I now fear for our future in SL

Poor from your boys today...some shocking defence at times....we are average...you made us look like a semi-decent team...a long road ahead for your guys...ah well at least your not Saints eh!

Re: CC SF | Warrington Wolves v Leeds Rhinos : Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:19 pm  

Don't disagree, I certainly don't see them all coming in at once, but this just underlines the size of recruitment task in front of us, and how many years it could take.

GH needs to say something to the fans about it or his credibility will start to come under question. It wouldn't be too much for him to say we should have recruited better than we have done over the last few years and we are working to rectify this.
