Re: Anderson must go! : Tue Apr 14, 2015 10:40 am  

i know its not anderson thats not playing out there , missing the tackles , giving away the penalties etc , but it is anderson who unfortunatly takes the blame as every head coach does, and 6 defeats after round 10 is simply not good enough ? we lack creativeness in attack , the same thing we lacked in round 1 and 2, our whole pre season as based on defence which is very good , but we still cant win games as we cant score enough points ...

In todays examiner anderson says he didnt bring mullally or cox back on the field as we needed more mobile players as we was chasing the game....

to me this sounds like he was panicking .... does that come across to the players on the field...certainly made the players start to lose patience which we seem to talk about

we just had to keep breaking them down and the points would have come, instead we got errors

It's confusing for us what goes through a coaches mind but I suppose we have to trust he knows what he's doing.
Look at Leeds last year. They had a red card in the first half of one of there games and BM didn't use 2 of his subs for the whole game. It's a coaches job to do what he thinks is best to win a game. If Anderson got it wrong, it'll be a learning curve. He'll think twice next time.. Though probably stubborn enough not to admit he should have chose differently.

I sort of get what he was saying. Have the experienced heads on the field when it's close- also we weren't going to go through saints pack- mullally (cox?) doesnt have a passing/offloading game and neither are mobile- so other than perhaps 5 metres in a set of six they didn't give us an edge. In a close game like that you can't afford a defensive lapse- Mullally often has those and cox won't know our systems well enough.

i just dont understand why they have signed cox on loan for MUST win games when hes not match fit , he can only play 15 20 mins top ( not his fault ) its like its a waste of a player , we still have fire power to bring on without signing him

perhaps KR need a bit of breathing room on the cap after taking on lunt.

or they have had too many bank loans for overseas players

Andersons comments in todays paper

'we've obviously had major issues with our offence all year. As head coach i have to take responsibility for that, as its my role at the club, and its also my job to fix it'

think purtell takes charge of the defence...

So apart from the strange result against Hull in the very first game of the season only Wigan have beaten the Giants by more than 4 points.

I'd suggest that Anderson is doing a very good job and his team is competitive in every fixture. With just one more score it could be played 10 won 8 Lost just 2


Huddersfield Giants 38 V 14 Catalans Dragons. WON BY 24
Huddersfield Giants 8 V 11 St Helens LOST BY 3
Hull Kingston Rovers 20 V 16 Huddersfield Giants LOST BY 4
Huddersfield Giants 12 V 18 Salford Red Devils LOST BY 4
Warrington Wolves 10 V 29 Huddersfield Giants WON BY 19
Wakefield Wildcats 14 V 44 Huddersfield Giants WON BY 30
Huddersfield Giants 22 V 0 Castleford Tigers WON BY 22
Huddersfield Giants 24 V 12 Widnes Vikings WON BY 12
Leeds Rhinos 28 V 24 Huddersfield Giants LOST BY 4
Wigan Warriors 24 V 16 Huddersfield Giants LOST BY 8
Huddersfield Giants 0 V 19 Hull FC LOST BY 19

Re: Anderson must go! : Sun Apr 19, 2015 5:36 pm  

we should have beaten wigan that night too with more composure!

Anderson shuffled things up today and got the win, well done.

Big test next week at Hull fc, we are due a win there
