A lot of complainers were asking for more youth - Carnduff, Illione, Woodward, Beets, possibly others like Chessum, L. that's quite a few to go along side Chessum O etc. I think next year will be the crux of McKellar's tenure, and will very much depend on the quality of further coaching appointment...

That article could have been written by DM himself!

[ quote=Tigersunited post_id=881794 time=1713642190 user_id=9987] What a massive excuse that is - do you really think he wasn’t given the option of an experienced Attack coach - he was and chose Matt Smith. We are going no where but backwards under DM - I fear for next season if he is in charge. It...

This is hilarious ! We lose against the best team in the league who have torn a lot of teams apart and suddenly we’re unfit, we’ve given up and it’s all McKellar’s fault. OHC is lazy now and a coward, Pollard is useless. Absolute tosh ! The buck stops with the HC - we are poor and 7/8th for a reason.

Cannot wait for the post match weazel words from Mckellar he needs to finally get a grip of this squad and the abundant issues that are their for every one can see it's a season horriblus and some players who are still here next year have gone backwards That was a long day! He doesn’t seem able to ...

Not the Head Coach’s fault…..mmmmm….. not sure I agree. Whatever the issues are, and let’s be honest, there are quite a few, eg no attack coach, poor player engagement, poor levels of fitness, no nous and guile with very predictable play, lack of discipline, to name just a few. The responsibility f...

We were not as bad as people are making out. We went in at HT winning and looked good in parts - especially the forwards. Although scrum was worrying. Discipline was a massive issue. Cost us the game alongside poor finishing. Kata needs to trust the players around him and not rush out / high tackle...

Oh dear,

Clearly not the head coaches fault - poor lad, feel really sorry for him, what he has inherited and has to deal with.

Think we will do this! Our boys will stand up - we know how to beat Saints and have a good record against them!! COYT

Even at 100K increases each that should count for 300K extra off. I struggle to see us just signing 3 players, I don't expect any more obvious starters for next season but depth wise centres will be bare bones. I don't see realistically how we could afford to buy out Simmonds and Marchant and if an...

Find that very strange as Andrea stated that we would spend up to the cap. We must have knocked at least £1M off the wage bill with those departures and even if the 3 new signings + contract renewals amount to the same the cap has gone up by £1.5M so either Andea has mislead us or their are more si...

Having released 10-12 players(including short term signings) would have thought that we have more players incoming. Hoping for a prop who can play both sides, a centre and a big nasty no 8. Its the hope that kills you :smt002 Heard from a very good source that no more significant signings incoming.
