is it too early to say that paul anderson is not the man for the job?

Yes in my eyes.

Anderson has not got the players to play his style of rugby. In my eyes we are far far too small in the pack.

For me if the club are to move forward Scott Grix has got to go, championship player at best with a few others.

I really dont understand that we played cujoe at fullback last week... he done well and we won?! why not keep him there.

Most laughable moment of the game for me was Manu running the ball in and Grix running straight past and not attempting to tackle, the bloke really is a liability

Did he do a single pass to one of our players?

And thus weeks Scapegoat of the week is...

way way way too early
l carn,t believe we are even talking about it

Why is it that whenever Grix has a shocker (which is more often than not), people say he is a scapegoat? No he isn't. He's just nowhere near good enough for a team that feels it is a contender for silverware. For every one decent thing he does he then does ten bad things. He just isn't up to it.

Yes, let him build HIS team , this is Brown's team and he has to work with what he's got until the off season!.

Agree about Grix btw, he's a decent squad player but hasn't enough about him to create enough for us .

Just out of interest who is going to be your half-back partnership? Are you expecting the signing of a stand-off?

Nope I don't think so. Think we're stuck with Grix for next season too.

Ah fair enough. From what I've seen of Hudds this season, it seemed that the neither Brown or Anderson were ever satified with the half-back pairings. Both have just kept chopping and changing it. Correct me if I'm wrong but hasn't Brough been your only constant in the half-backs this season?

He'll just try and turn you into bradford circa 1999. The game has moved on from the time when roly, poly props ruled the roost

Mullally Crabtree Patrick mason - hardly roly poly props.

Belive in Anserson next season. Let's not doubt him. If things turn bad towards the end of next season then we should start asking questions. As for Grix was nowhere near our worst player on the park.

Can everyone stop going on about Patrick being a prop.

He is not a prop he is a second row. He should be playing second row. He should be running wide down the centres. He should be playing like Gilly did or Manu.

His pace and strength would always draw two men into the tackle and create space for a centre and a winger.

Patrick at prop = waste of talent.

Same set up last night as against leeds

they were unveiling luke gale not so long ago

oops

There are certain players who stand out as future head coaches - Shaun Edwards, Iestyn Harris, Darryl Powell, Kevin Sinfield. Then there are those that don't - Tony Smith (Cas/Wigan), James Lowes, Andy Hay, Frances Cummins. I'm afraid I would have Paul Anderson in that latter bunch. I will give him 10 games next season, though I would be pleased if he proved me wrong.

I think Jimmy Lowes will do well as a coach.

Eorl Crabtree to 6, Scott Grix to Moldgreen

Agree with Durham re Patrick, will be far more dangerous in the second row
l think Fairbank will come good as a prop

im thinking the same durham...its just not happening for him at prop

no i dont think its too early at all baloo is not the answer to me, he has been involved for long enough in my eyes, i agree with jake the peg, we do appear to be heading towards the bulls style of play 12 years ago, not the way forward for me but i could be wrong, i hope so, think he may last til next may. His record in two goes is what now 8 wins in 20, think that could be our stats for next year too.
