I get really tired of the coach ALWAYS getting the blame. There's got to come a time when we pin the blame on the 17 guys actually doing all the mistakes. Today I blame them.

Shouldnt have signed players that are incapable of playing to a game plan then, or players that lack basic skills, such as passing accuratley, marking, and wrapping the ball up in the tackle.

The reason youve seen such a poor team for the past 4 seasons is because Steve McNamara has put it together and he doesn't have a bloomin clue what he is doing.

I'm pig sick of it, and I'm pig sick of him.

I can not wait till he's no longer here, and he can take all his crap with him for all I care.

think we relied on orford too much at start of season. since hes been out we have just gone downhill.
he organised us on the pitch and came up with awesome plays to put people over.

Our inablity to defend is more of a concern IMHO.

The players are told to play to the game plan by the coach, and players like Sykes are played in roles that they aren't good enough for by the coach. Macca has alot to answer for, we get stuffed last week but his priorities were england, his club needed him this week but he had other priorities.

Since the announcement that McNamara was England coach, we've lost 4 on the trot and conceded 15 tries in the last 2 games. Simply not good enough. Okay, we've had players out, but we need to get this sorted, especially with Warrington up next.

cant see situation improving much next week. We had 5 of our 1st choice 17 out today and only langley and orford to come back into contention next week. Langley will certainly help with out defense down nero/reardons wing and orford will give us the direction we've been so obviously missing but dont think that will be enough to get a result against wire. and thats assuming both do return, with the constant langley a week away comments combined with us looking for a loan forward I suspect his injury is a lot worse than club are admitting.

and yet going into this game we had 4th best defense in league. Think langleys absence is key to breakdown in our defense last few weeks. He gets through a hell of a lot of work defensively. Worrincy and whitehead try their best but are a little too lightweight and not in same class. Although whitehead definitely has potential.

Re: Squad Vs Crusaders. : Sun Jun 13, 2010 6:22 pm  

You have to question the decision by the coaches to take Wardle off. He was the one of the only ones in attack who looked threatening and he won us the ball twice with 2 big hits.

England are in for a treat come this four nations
