| The next 6 games are vital to our season. We have Huddersfield who just walloped Catalans away in the cup. Hull FC who are in complete disarray, London at home, Catalans away, St Helens away and Cas at home. I expect us to win 3 (Hull FC, London and Cas) and lose 3 (Hudds, Catalans and Saints) leaving us with a P13, W7, L6 record and probably just hanging onto the pack chasing 5/6th place. Anything worse than this as Smith should be removed, same if we don’t achieve 4th or better by the end of the season. We have a squad that should be no worse than 4th, and were currently sat 8th, with no sensible or recognisable way of defending or attacking.

| That's nonsense. Under Furner we lost eight of our first ten games. He brought over the hopelessly unfit Lolohea and kept picking him, amongst other bad decisions. If Lolohea had been a world beater and we hadn't been playing terribly then even if JJB or others were muttering behind the scenes they wouldn't have been listened to.
Before us Furner's tenure of the Raiders was a chaotic mess. He was only appointed there because of his links with the club (sounds familiar?) and his dad. If he had been anyone else he would have been gone more than a year before he was eventually kicked out, with a 43% win rate over five generally dire seasons.
Once he was hooked at the Raiders he didn't get a look-in as a first team coach anywhere else for SIX years until Leeds brought him in. Lots of NRL jobs came and went in that time. Nobody else was interested.

Not defending Furner, but pretty sure Lolohea was a McDermott signing before the axe finally fell. Either that or he was a Sinfield signing before Furner arrived.

| Arthur - you may be right as Lolohea signed a month or so before Furner was announced as coach, but both he and Hurrell played for Tonga when Furner was assistant coach, and I think he probably had a lot to do with them both joining Leeds. Utter mare of a coach regardless.
