Sounds like quite an honest assessment to me. I wouldn't expect a dummy spit like we would see on a fans forum.

Someone should tell Kear he is not giving an assessment on a game he's just watched for SKY

He's the coach of a SL team in a local derby game who have failed to get off the coach, never mind turn up.

Not good enough JK

Time to accept some responsibility for the garbage your sending out to play for you week in week out.

Funny really how the 2 wins in recent weeks we have managed to get have been when both those sides were ABSOLUTELY AWFUL.

Says it all fot me IMHO

same as every week after a heavy defeat comes out with a load of rubbish,at end of day its his team he to me should now be leaving while he is still has respect of many trinity fans if this continues he wont have that respect

wakefield had enough chances sour grapes from john kear on radio leeds best team won end of story maybe he knows hes for the chop

Or maybe he know's when TM goes at the end of the season he's got another job down the road to go to... !?!

JK you have taken us as far as you can - we look stale and are playing the most unattractive rugby league since we have been in super league - I think its time to resign - I wonder what was said at half-time today as that second half was awful and we simply had no answer to??? Once teams throw it around against us we crumble way too easy and look clueless.

Why the hell have we not bought a stand-off from somewhere??? Paul Cooke gets crucified on this board yet hes playing out of position every week??? BJ is not a dominant half-back and stuggles to get us round the park - our backs must be well and truly fed up - even murphy looks un-interested at the moment as all he seems to do is defend and gets no decent ball in attack whatsoever!!!

Roll on Saints next week

He was just saying that when we had the ball we threw it away (7 sets on the 1st-3rd tackle in the 1st half) and we were well beaten by a Cas team. So where's the sour grapes ginner.

to be fair the first player he put his arm around as he came out of the tunnel was joe westerman? possibly just us cas lads sticking together

No wonder games slip away when even the coach has no confidence in us. Bye John. Hello Willie.

Not surprised they lost if the players read the latest BBC Blog -
[iPotter turned out to be the choice of the Bradford board, although Wakefield coach John Kear was keen on the vacancy too.[/i

DONT SLAG KING JOHN HES THE BEST

Lol, but he kept us up in 1896!!!

yes and there was no relegation then lol

It's the same every week. We consistently knock on and then lose our patience and give away needless penalties. I can accept being beaten by a better side but i cannot accept standing still and not progressing. In training all they should work on is securing the ball. And cut the backchat boys

One thing I haven't been able to get my head round, is the fact that we don't use any dummy runners or have any attacking set moves,it's a joke that this year at times they don't even look like they've had a training session together.The Last few years the side has played some attractive rugby,so what's happened,I can understand we've lost some key players,but you'd have thought that the players we've got would be capable of some of the basic attacking moves that most teams utilize in SL today.Don't get me started on the fitness levels,whatever happens for next year a new fitness coach is essential.Because of the general lack of fitness it must have cost us at least 10 points this season and that is something that you can control before your even get on the rugby field.
