Why are you unable to accept that some people have different views from your own? A good number of people think our scrum half is pretty average at a lot of areas. He couldnt keep Hayes out of the side ffs. But you keep on thinking they are all superstars and then suprised when we fail to win the prize again.


When you play or coach you tend not to criticise but encourage ... even the worst players. I would not appreciate some of your comments if I was currently playing.
I liked Hayes BTW.
I trust Burgess & Sam over my opinion too. Burgess would have stopped the try but Tomkins ...no chance. 90% of half backs would not stop the tries. You have never tried to stop a big forward five yards out. But why do you slate individuals???

It’s not Slating it’s an opinion which you clearly disagree with. Why are you always attacking people for their opinions.

Imagine your son played for Wire ... would you like him to read the forum?

That would be his choice to make. If things were going well he may like what he reads if it’s not then he may not like what he reads. The point is its choice. It’s not for you to decide what is written, I get you don’t like negative comments made about some players, just come up with a comment why you disagree with someone’s opinion instead of attacking them. To use your analogy do you think people like reading you attacking their comments.

Just to Clarify: So you are asking me to be more respectful to individuals who insult players (in case I upset 'em) who slate players for their efforts on the pitch. Some of who have never ever stood in front of a snorting prop forward who has just had his knackers tweaked.

We've had this one before & those who never played get very uppity & it is not a popular view on this forum for obvious reasons. It does help your understanding of the game to have played. If you've dropped balls, missed tackles etc you tend not to be quite so critical of others.

Never driven an F1 car but I know Lance Stroll should not be near one. Anyways as you say we have been here before and yet you still criticise people having an opinion.

Opposition pick out smaller men for one on one’s within the 10 yard area.

They either run over him, or move the ball to pull to stretch a defensive zone to isolate the smaller guy to be hit with a short ball.

Hayes for sure always got targeted, as did Tai and Drinkwater.

It’s very difficult to stop a 17 stone forward hitting anyone at speed, never mind smaller guys.

I do have my doubts about next season. Losing Nicholson and Bateman makes us weaker. I’m not sure on Leyland, don’t know if he’s what we need or if he’s good enough to be honest. We’re quite light in the back row. I’d like a huge prop forward and the centres King and Tai just don’t do it for me.
