Add Hame to that as well especially if he is not going to be here next season.

To get an unlikely home finish now we would probably have to beat Cas' away and win one of our home ties against either Wigan or Warrington. Even if injured (as long as not running on one leg!) I think yes we would need to have certainly Horne and I think Ogre to be playing in these games. As much as I like Rich Whiting as a utility player I dont think we would beat Wigan or Wire with him playing in the half's for instance. Totally agrea though that both players mentioned look like they could do with the time off if we had that luxury. All of this could be imaterial of course in a couple of weeks.

I'd actually really like to see Lauaki stay if we were getting a proper coach for next year, I'm convinced there's an absolute beast in there somewhere.

Nice to find a like minded individual when discussing Lauaki, the beast is in there and I am sure a decent coach will show that!

| Quote ="Kosh"Horne is injured and it's clearly affecting his form. I'd pack him off to have whatever operation/rehab he needs now and run with Whiting at 6 for the remainder of the season, or Nicklas if he's fully recovered. Pointless flogging Horne when he clearly isn't fit enough and the season if finished for all practical purposes.
Possibly worth doing the same with Ogre as well TBH for the same reasons. Draft in a youngster to cover for the rest of the season.'"
Don't disagree...never going to happen though.

| Quote ="Pookie"Although I can see the point of this I think as a supporter you still have to cling onto the hope of whatever finish is still possible. So although unlikely I think you have to still play the first choicers until the albeit slim chance of a home tie in the play off's has gone.'"
But the players in question are poor so why would we want to carry on playing them?....that is the problem just because they are big name players it does not mean they should not be dropped when their form goes down! How do you expect to win games when we play players who are performing poorly on the pitch ?

Fair point, my knowledge of the NRL is pretty limited so I'm not sure what standard of coaching he was getting over there. He has shown the odd flash though and Wigan's rumored interest in him lends a bit of weight to my view.

| The 'rotation' of Jordan Turner to get our specialist winger off the bench followed by the later 'rotation' of Cameron Phelps was the last straw for me. Name me another coach in a world who would have made those changes? That wouldn't even happen at West Hull.

I still think he's better in the back row too. Out wide and with better support for offloads I think he could cause a lot more damage to opposition.

For me he's always played better or looks a much more effective player in the back row when he's running down the flanks rather than being used as a carthorse down the middle.
I honestly do think with the right coach in place and given a role he could be a very effective player, problem is the current incumbent doesnt know how to get the best out the players he has available.

The problem is he can't time his run as he never knows when the ball is coming and when it does go out wide it's too slow and he is closed down immediately.

| i deffo would love lauaki to stay next season but under if agar is still in charge then i have no doubts he would still get 10-15 mins a game playing at prop which is a joke. hes a good player that if gets used right could be alot better and hes young and also with the cap going up ect in the nrl getting a player as good as lauaki on similar wage could be very hard
FOR ME KEEP LAUAKI AND BYE BYE TO AGAR

Which would hopefully be sorted by a decent coach. The timing of runs by our forwards is generally poor across the board. Only O'Meley seems to bother dropping back to run onto it, the rest are usually standing practically still. It's not helped by our woefully slow ptb on most occasions though.

We can only hope so ! Hr. P is obviously an intelligent guy so he must know that there is a glaringly obvious way to immediately make the majority of fans very happy and firmly behind him and the club.
Get rid of the idiot and gives us a top quality coach (whatever the price)
