Half way through his second season in charge and the team are still beset with the same inadequacies.
Firstly the side is screaming out for a stand off, Rudd is a decent enough player but lacks pace and the ability to find a gap at this level. Gresque, Holyroyd and Penny have all been available while Rotherham watches on with his thumb up his ^rs?!
We lack power up front yet again. Trindall can tackle all day but his offensive play is frankly rubbish and he occupies the quota spot which would be put to better use bringing in an Antipodean half back. Wright is also in my opinion a poor player who should be cut loose.
Calvert scores tries but his defence and general play is abysmal. What good is running 80m to score a try when you give away three. Teams constantly target him as a weak link which is sadly true. Give Lebbon a chance or sign someone who can tackle and score tries.
If the club get to the final of the NRC then Rotherham will use this as a bargaining tool in order to wangle a new contract. I say to the board let him go and bring in someone with fresh ideas. Rotherham has the vision of a Goldfish.
Lastly well done to the board in deciding to go it alone with the ground improvements however i ask what is the chance of these plans coming to fruition when the club cant even afford a proper scoreboard?
Good to see you have a grasp of under 7 year old rugby! Now its time to get a grasp of big boy rugby!
You have no idea at all, I would explain it but it would be like playing a broken record.
Let me guess, you think the coach and players are getting payed big money and they are just not worth the money!! Guess what, many people would not get out of bed for the money they get and they go and sit behind a desk etc. I would imagine you are one of these people that have never played league at a decent level and think players get to much in the 18-30 year old period they get to play. You think that the money you pay to watch them you should get more in that ten year period. Are you one that will hold your hand up to give them the thousands of pounds needed twenty years from now because there body is shattered because of playing league for the little money they got in the 18-80 year old period?
I bet you or the large majority of wingers never thought about that aspect of the players!Do you seriously think if good players around that you would like to come to the team,heard you talk to them in the context above they would not laugh at you?
Jealousy only comes out in those that have pea sized brains. Arm chair critics have the same sized brains.
Here is a hint for you, when you have a small forward pack, you need the backs to do most of the attack! Even my 8 year old son can tell you that and he has only played for 2 years. So you want Attacking and attacking forwards with a small forward pack, do you also want to be beaten 80-30? You need a base for the attack to work off and that base is always a very good defense.
Passion is one thing, stupidity is an entirely different thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As its only a couple of loses this year to this point, your either Jealous, a town supporter or a worse winger than my wife!
Go Haven.
P.s by my count of "sack the" The would be no coach or players, no ball boys, no ref and no commentators. All thats needed is for people to say sack the greens keeper and it will be everyone!
