Furners Job Safe

[Cryptic]

.... FFS the players suck... Put god himself in charge of them and that still doesn't stop them dropping the f**king ball every 2nd time we touch it...

How can you absolve the coach of all blame? He has taken a top 8 team and they'll get the spoon.

FURNER last night showed how dumb he is. All the Raiders had to do was bomb Rankin. He has to take responsibility for the side's tactics.

 

[matt]

The tactic was to bomb Rankin, did it happen? No,are the halves getting themselves into position to bomb? No, Are we dumd in the halves? yes, are we down on confidence and extremely in-experienced in the halves? Yes.

Does anyone here think that if we had Bellamy, Bennett or even Hasler that we would be throwing out this sort of rubbish efforts every week?

Even if Furner learns to coach by the end of his 3 year scholarship, why should our club have to waste 3 years so he can become a proper coach? Why not just buy a new coach. Anyway.. the situation stinks and as fans of a great club like ours, i think we deserve better.

FFS!!!!!!!!!!!

what do u mean "on L plate dummhalfs"

why is it so hard for otheres to see the lack of sctructure in our attack.. yeah we have decent go forward but thats based on strength and ability. we lack total attacking structure, we create no synergy in our team and the boys dont work well together at all.. really hope i eat my words next year

Agree. The amount of time it takes for us to pull off a passing movement gives the defense mountains of time to adjust. Nobody in our team can pass without running the ball a couple of steps first :lol:

Dazza, where have you been for the last 11 years? Simon Woodford was a poor passer of the ball, right through to Alan Tongue now. Defences put pressure on the offence coming out of their own half. Cameron Smith not only delivers a good pass, but he also creates a hole, stepping out of dummy half from time to time. Before he bends to pick the ball up, he looks at the defence and to see which way he is going to attack. Our dummy halfs at times have enough trouble just passing to the bread basket. Think about how many times the Raiders have to defend for back to back sets because a pass was dropped early in a set coming off the line. I saw one inexcusable error on Saturday night where a dummy half had the ball stripped off him before passing.
Get the dummy half fixed and everything will follow.

Nice explanation GREEN MACHINE, i am not a Rugby coach and dont understand the complexities of rugby league, but we definately dont have structure and fluency in attack, we are soooo easy to defend and yeah it probabaly starts with the dummy half....
