It really was one of the worst games for a long long time! Certainly a lack of intellegence in our team as to when to pass and when not to. Also is it me or can anyone tell the difference between our defensive and attacking line, we're so flat with the ball its untrue! Hell of alot to work on, glad agar didn't gloss over it in his comments

The problem is it was our round all night.

One thing about Agar ,he says it in laymans terms.

ugly,but 2 points!!!

He knows no other

A bit like Madonna.

A ten Pinter?

lucky for him he gets paid to watch it
fans have to pay to watch it

now long is out lets see how his coaching skills gets us over that conundrum

Should be fine. leeds, warrington, saints and hull kr have all played plenty of the season with one of their half backs out. Lets just hope agar really expects horne to be back this week like he said on Friday post game

you still would thou................

It was a bad game, but it wasn't the worst in a long time. Hull vs Wakefield was worse.

I hope you're right but the top sides have more than 1 top notch half back, whereas I believe we fail to recruit half backs unless they are over 30 ( no matter how good they are ) and 1 at a time instead of getting 2/3 quality half backs at the club. Time and time again we just pop someone in the key half back position to fill a shirt NOT lead the team around the pitch.

My hopes for our player recruitment during the next couple of seasons is to get half backs our priority.

Would be nice to have a good option to fill in or to take over if the main man is playing poorly. But unfortunately i cannot remember the last time we had an option like this.

Don't you think that signing (arguably) the best scrum-half in the world was giving it precisely that level of priority?

No it was a case of putting all our eggs in one basket and those eggs have turned out to be scrambled. A lot on here were worried about have to rely solely on Long this season and those worries have certainly borne fruit.

I thik there were at least three more eggs in the basket (Fitz, O'Meley and Berrigan) and two of them even have egg heads

we have needed quality halfbacks for as long as I can remember, Long is quality but he's at the wrong end of his career, the last quality we had at the right time of their careers was Entat/Mackey.

That little nugget of information tells it's own story really

There are few clubs in SL who have a different story, although you seem to have forgotten Cooke and Horne with whom we reached finals and won silverware.

Indeed. And we dismantled that partnership too.

Although nobody actually came up with a viable alternative strategy.
