I just hope Tony Smith is still hungry, because this is actually a great challenge for a coach like him. I was hoping that he'd make some tough decisions and give some youngsters a go over under performing big earners, but so far I haven't seen it. But it's early days. Maybe today will give him a better view for the future. I thought today was a opportunity to put a young kid out in the centre with Sutcliffe out. But he chose to move Griffin back there when I thought Griffin was best kept in the back row.

I was including what’s happening off the field as well tbf. Hopefully use our marquee next year and push on for some bigger things.

"A couple of bad results" - you've only played four yet this is the "the best position they’ve ever been in since superleague". Embarassing.
Hull were terrible today but as I told you before you disappeared for a couple of weeks, we will always be the bigger club and you know it which is why you are on here.

Some of the old timers have probably pulled the wool over his eyes, they look a bit fitter, they have been making the right noises...but today shows it was a sham, what Smith does next will be interesting.

See previous post. Own ground. Building own training facilities. One of superleagues richest clubs. Rumours to be using marquee next year. Leading example for clubs in regards to img. More concerts. More money.

Rumours of marquee signing Not Cooper Cronk again? Own ground ? Look what happened last time kr owned their own ground ? Building training facilities ? When ? Richest club? Oh yeah the power board. They have so Much money that they held a raffle for who could sit in the coaches dugout.
kr fans syndrome living in the past with delusions of grandeur. I’m hoping Tony Larvin will be announced next to join the board.

But what's he hungry for? He's won everything
Think He's stuck the same ideas/same tactics for years He's done nothing of note since 2016
He coached them since always had my doubts
We're not a big rugby league team really are we in the grand schemes , brisbane got 43k
We barely scrape 15k for a so called "massive crowd"
Even our away support has gone backwards compared to years back

Can't remember last time you won a trophy
In fact wasn't born
But that'd our problem to many of our fans obsessed with rovers instead of winning trophys like 2016 or 2005 ( you wasn't in super league funny enough )
