Can ANYBODY name any other business that would get away with supplying their customers with such an inferior product?
If Agar IS on £1500 it's a disgrace, 60k a year for an unproven coach....PATHETIC, especially when I can't see Sharp being on less than 30k.
90k per year on two of the worst coaches SL has ever seen.'"
Its actually 78K if Agar is on 1500 a week! Sharp will be on far more than 30k - i wouldn't get out of bed for that!

Quality?
People coming to the end of their careers looking for a pension top up you mean? (well, certainly Fitzgibbon and Long)

Well looking at who you want for coach, you would only be impressed with Folau, Inglis and Slater by the sounds of it.

They'd come for the right money Paul, it is what irks me about FC, we pay over the odds for journeymen players, if we are really operating at near full cap that is.

But when you are talking about superstars it's impossible to sign a few of them up, not with the cap to consider.
As for this seasons cap, we are nowhere near spending it, not even close.

Who have Leeds signed for next season?
A player from Wakefield, a player from Whitehaven, a player from Doncaster and an Aussie who is nowhere near top notch.
Who did they sign this season? A 32 year old hooker from Australia.
Does not stop them being arguably the best team in the comp.
Saints have players like Clough and Hargreaves in their side, every team has to have balance within the squad. That goes for ability and age.

| Quote ="Big Dave T"The last expensive coach we must have had was Mcrae. At the 3 points of appointment above we could have gone for a more expensive option and brought in someone like Graham Murray, Ian Millward or Steve Foulkes but we always chose not to. The only driver behind this can be money and the cheap option.'"
Didn't we inherit Mcrae when we merged?
Quote ="Big Dave T"I bet you if we had have brought in one of the big name coaches above we would be in a far better position that we are now.'"
Crocker and Carvell still wouldn't be here, Lauaki's visa wouldn't have come through any quicker and he would have still been injured when he got here. The injuries we've had would have still been sustained and any other coach would have still had the same players to choose from, probably with the exception of Thorman as I doubt anyone else would have signed him, even as the stopgap I believe we have signed him for. Trust me, I'm as disappointed as anyone this year and I do think Agar shoots himself in the foot on occasion, especially with subs rotation which can be baffling at times but his hands have been somewhat tied with regard to team selection IMO.
Feel free to shoot me down. Just my opinion.

We did inherit Mcrae but it was ultimately this board that made that appointment.
Agree, there are variables that would still have happened but i have issues with the way we have played aside from those facts. A decent coach would have motivated our existing players and coached them in a better way to get victories and performances out of some of the games weve lost these season.

| So whats it to be then?
Im in favour of a couple of A4 sheets stuck together, one side says AGAR OUT, the other SHARP OUT. Easy to get in as you can simply fold them then we all hold them up and let the baord see our discontentment.

| The trouble with trying to organise anything on here is that RLFans is such a small percentage of our average gate that you'll struggle to make much impact.
That said, I'd be up for a few choruses of 'Only one Mark Calderwood' and 'Agar Out'.
