it looks to me as though we've scaled down the qualty of the squad, accepting we will not be in superleague come the next franchise.
so mcrae will be gone at the end of next season (maybe this one if they decide to kick us out)

Maybe it's because we're skint?

well alker has made a big impact hasn't he?

Just wait for the usual response, "the result hurt our pride but the lads have been training the house down"

We will take some positives from the game is what mcrae will say, instead of what a load of sh*te i saw tonight and there will be changes, if i coached the way they played i would be out of a job apart from one or two players out there tonight who gave there all, the rest were made to look like amatures on a school playing field, sorry not picking on school rugby, just using it as an example, we all know that you are better than the dross we saw last night

Well unless SMc has a bit of honour and resigns there is surely little that can be done.

Options

a) Move him upstairs to be our Media Manager to avoid a big pay out
b) Trim staff to equalise cost of new coach
c) Look for a coach with IDEAS on how to play OPEN, ATTRACTIVE, ENTERTAINING Rugby League Football.

OK Candidates - Well I will put one hat in the ring.

John Cartwright with Darren Brown as his #2

Now that I'd pay money to see!! I can't see the "changing room" arguing with JC!!

We can't afford a new coach, let alone somone like Cartwright

What he said,

For me it is not just about last night. It is McRae's whole reign. It has been totally uninspiring. We were heading for the drop when he took over but if anything got worse. Ok, the following year we won the National League and the NR Cup but can you say it was memorable(save the Grand Final). Think back we were boring to watch and got out of a few scrapes due to our full time fitness levels. There were many games when the team was booed off and many games where the opposition played much better rugby than us. Last season was hit and miss but was centred primarily around one golden period when Myler and Ratchford were inspirational. The start and end of seasons were a damp squib. Throughout McRae's reign it has been the same- one man rugby, poor kicking game, not moving up in defence. handling errors galore. etc etc. We have heard much pre-season about how the team has trained the house down, spirit is good etc and how there has been much emphasis on core skills. In the first two games there has been little evidence of this and let's be honest we have been beaten in both games quite comfortably with something to spare.
