Sooner we are in the market for a coach who can cultivate attractive free flowing rugby the better.

Weren't we supposed to be on a even financial keel, so there should have been no financial reason to let him go.

You dont give away your better players to your divisional rivals its madness especially when we dont have anyone to replace him with.

I suspect it wont be long till Handforth goes to.


Quite agree with the coaching comment, I would rather see us lose and look like we have some form of attacking line, rather than the backs stood in a bunch looking like they ve never met before.

I remember speaking to Kyle last year and he was really up for staying with the club.

However it seemed a bit dodgy after the Widnes game when Dave Marshall said he was concerned that Kyle did nt play because it sounded like he was fed up at the club. It was later said that he had been ill! I suppose we ll have to see I long before he plays for Fev.

It is noticeable that a lot of these players who have left have previously been in Super League academies and have been used to better coaching than they have been receiving lately.

it seems we have just two options from here:
1 sign another number 6 for no fee
2 kick weeden up the back side and make him take the pressure off handforth

Well..... letting him go would indicate we have no options.
And as for Weeden.....I hate think what the side would be like without him......kick up the backside or not.






War does not determine who is right - only who is left.

Thank God I'm an atheist.

Was the money there last week and now it isnt? :?

.


Maybe at the time Wayne Opie was signed it was already known that Kyle was leaving the club.

1) Can't see us getting anyone capable of doing a job at this level if we have financial problems.

2) He simply isn't a 6. A fair 13 particularly at the lower level last season but at Championshop level probably only on a par with many second-rowers.

Sounds like a very distinct possibility.

Maybe he was signed as the ready made replacement then?

Don't believe you will find many fans slagging Kyle off on here--
Most of us are thankfull we had him for as long as we did.

Unlike the abuse he suffered on leaving the Hawks last season.
