Are you all still happy that you got your wish?????

I never hated Wane at all but to answer your question, yes. Wane had to go.

Yes it was time for Wane to go, the coaching appointments that follwed were the decisions that have bit us on the

Not yet that haven’t. 4 games in 13 days and a flat performance was always on the cards. 3 wins in a row and job done. Lots of season in front of us yet.

I didn’t hate Wane, but I did want him out.

I am still glad he left for both Wigan and his legacy.

It's a bit irrelevant as he resigned but I doubt we'd be top of the league if he was still here with the teams we have been putting out lately.

I was talking about Edwards more tbf but I’m not impressed with Lam, we look miles off from contending and the slowness in our attack is alarming, defence has improved at least

I just want the season over. Appalling standard of play and with little if any quality forwards to return it's going to be a grind at best with a poor team poorly coached.
I can put up with that if we sign some decent forwards for next season and replace Williams with someone better than him..
We are shoite and need a few years of rebuilding

We’ve not yet fielded the same 17 players two weeks in a row. I’m still comfortable with him at the helm to be honest. Not pretty but 3 wins on the bounce. I’d argue that even Craig Bellamy would struggle without the right players. It’s the playing staff that are not coming up with the goods and I blame that more than coaching.

Players and coach not good enough for me.
Glad for the 2 points because I genuinely believe we are still relegation candidates but apart from that totally flat with the club at the moment.
Hardaker incapable of a break, soft pack and not a move in us.

If this is the best Lam can conjure up then maybe it’s time to look elsewhere,for me the magic weekend was always going to be the tester and the magic weekend isn’t far off now.

Yea he’s had injuries so has everyone else the last two games have been risable and frankly unacceptable as a spectacle of entertainment

The Wane legacy will take at least 2 seasons to shift.

It’s will be a bit like the Noble era at Bradford. Took so long to get over it and killed a few careers on the way.

For me the issue is the weak pack. Week after week we are getting bullied.

I've only seen London a couple of times (Toronto promotion match and tonight) and both times I've laughed when their fat number 8 has lined up but boy..... What an engine that lad has, puts most of ours to shame. For me was probably the best forward on the field tonight.

Is that how far weve fallen?

Are you suggesting we have to clear out a few Wane era players as well? And I don't mean because they are not good enough as individual players but because, for example, they can't adapt or resent a new coach?

Yes, also with him having been at the club for so long it will take at least a year or 2 to change the culture.

That isn’t a criticism of Wane it is a credit to him, however it is a very difficult job for the next man unless they want to maintain a watered down version of the Wane years.

Wane never had a team this bad

Building up to Easter we had 13 first team squad out injured (including some of the fringe players). We got a couple back for Cas which was played in torrential rain and on a very heavy pitch. Last night was our 4th game in 13 days and it’s perfectly understandable to have a flat performance.
We now have most players back (barring Faz, Sammut, Manfredi and Davies) and 10 days rest / prep before we play Warrington so let’s see how that goes. I’ve said it before, even somebody like Craig Bellamy would have struggled in the situation Lam found himself in.

The issue I have is Lam has used returning players as a life raft but realistically there’s only Faz who’ll be back this season who would make a major difference. He said last night Clubb is back for the Wire game but I’m not sure we should risk him. He looked totally unfit and sluggish before his knee injury, so it’s tough to see how he’ll cope with the pace of a CC tie against Wire.

Could the clique that is rumoured to be at the club be players Waney brought through from a young age?, Talks of certain players being shunned, If so the offenders need ousting

Spill the beans.

Yes, 100%. Under Wane we played like last night all season and then won the last 3 games and won the Grand Final which papered over the cracks.

I hope you're right, and I admire your optimism when discussing Lam, you make some fair points re-injuries etc (though the Craig Bellamy comment is a little much, I feel he would have had the players playing with ton more vigour than Lam does)

But in return this season has shown a massive fall from grace. The squad isn't massively different from the GF winning team who went on an unbeaten run in the playoffs, this can't be overlooked. The desire, the defence, the effort at times is nowhere near what it was. So far this season we've had one 80min performance, just one. All teams suffer injuries and have hectic fixtures in and around Easter, yet our style of play in attack and defence has been a far cry from what it once was.

Lam didn't take over a failing squad which needed time to develop, he took over a champion team; literally.

If anything this spell emphasises how good Wane was. He had bad moments, but consistently had us winning and appearing in finals.

Obviously I hope he turns its around, but all we can do is comment and review what's happened.

How is winning the GF papering over cracks? that's exactly what you're meant to do! Win.

I can see why most fans are frustrated and yes, we did go on a winning run to the GF last year. Before that, after it was announced that Wane was leaving we couldn’t buy a good performance and many were screaming for him to go immediately and not see the season out. The squad hasn’t changed much but it did lose 2 of its most influential players in Tomkins and Bateman.
The season before we had a horrendous run of of injuries and finished outside the top 4. That was also under Waney.
I’ve said a few times, I’m just a bit more relaxed about things. With better luck we could be further up the ladder and we could we’ll go on another winning run.

The coaches, players, owners, media etc all say its only winning that matters, to them it does and to the fans it does but they also want to be entertained as this is the entertainment industry and people want to be entertained. Under Wane they weren’t.

We just tread water all season playing crap rugby just hovering around the top 6 then play well for a few matches and win the Grand Final. Doing this will ultimately kill the game, that’s why they’ve changed it this season. The 20 odd league games don’t count for anything and we’re meaningless, the fans were treated with contempt.

Under Wane it was akin to a father who works away a lot and never sees the wife and kids but comes home 1 week a year, showers then with gifts and says ‘What do you mean I’m a bad father and husband, I’ve just bought you all that stuff, other wife’s and kids would be grateful of it, you ungrateful lot’.

So for 90% of the time we were poor to watch, then ground out a couple of wins at the end of the season to keep Wane in a job when in reality a GF loss would have seen him sacked in 2016.
