Quote="Keith Swiftcorn"The focus for blame appears to be directed at McDermott and Lowes.
However, the indiscipline was there for all to see last season as well.
It's a tired, over-the-hill squad at Leeds that's been in decline for several seasons. The amount of indiscipline they are exhibiting is a reaction from a squad of players who were used to winning silverware and having things their own way but no longer are. They all know this, but it's easier to whine, chelp, niggle, get penalised, blame the ref, blame anyone or anything but themselves. They are no longer fit for the purpose.
The time for sentiment is over.
Reason must prevail instead.
This squad is finished as a competitive entity and there should be no further contract renewals for any of them.
It's time to move on.'"
Finished as a competitive entity..........then wins 2 super league titles.
Quote="Biff Tannen"Well said and i think he certainly will do. Some of the rugby was turgid and down right shambolic at times during large periods of the regular round games but his ability to get us up for the big occasions is second to none. The two wins from 5th position, the win at warrington in the play offs 2011 ( which i think was his greatest BTW) followed by Burrow's wonder try in the final. WCC win over Manly, back to back CC wins, a treble won in dramatic fashion and then winning the 2017 GF out of nowhere really all things that were done under his watch.'"
And Leeds played some of the best RL I've ever seen in 2015. It was like going back in time to 2005.
Well, I honestly thought this one would run and run, but like the oft mentioned quasi-legendary Willie Talau to Leeds thread its maybe time to close this bad boy down methinks.
Feel free to get you're last jibes and barbs in.
After nigh on 7 years this has been an all time classic.
Thanks for the memories Mac and thanks for the thread!
