| We are currently in 7th, two points off top spot after ten rounds. Our performances have been far from perfect, but we are clearly very competitive in what has been the most competitive season ever. If that's our position now, imagine what it could be in a few weeks if we got some wins and the fans stopped shouting for the coaches/teams/CEOs head every time a player makes an error.

When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.

| 60% win rate, 2 points off top. On a macro level we're doing ok. The performances don't give me confidence at all, though.

If we had picked up a win against either Wire or Huddersfield there would have been little to moan about in the greater scheme of things but we lost both in very dissapointing fashion. Next weeks game is winnable despite our injury problems ( they have theirs too) and if we could get the points I"d certainly feel that the players and coach had redeemed themselves. Will tell us a lot, I think.

| It’s just not that bad is it?
I was hoping this season would be us back towards the top; it hasn’t been so far, but it is a season where we can see the remaining gaps.
It’s also a year where the youth is developing nicely.

That's the spirit. You should do the half time team talk. We have already beaten them this season and have won more than weve lost against them under Smith. I hope the players have more fight than you do.

| I just need Christopher back on this forum now so I can sub myself.
As a club, if we cannot find the right signings and performances for top 4 next year then some serious changes are required. And not just a head coach - RS is the fifth attempt since we were good.
Personally I see progress. Croft, if we can keep him til contract ends at least, is someone we can fit the jigsaw pieces around. I still say we are only 2-3 star players short now.
We have to secure those players. I don’t want us just to catch the likes of Wigan; we should be passing them. That means we need to spend, really get our youth working and be more ambitious.
If we don’t start challenging the top we are in danger of losing the better players we do have. This is the true test of RS for me.

Agree with this. Rebuilding from that will make the current period pale into insignificance. The period we're in, and how we come out of it, will define the clubs standing for many a year.

Mate I feel like Sam Lisone after 15 minutes on the pitch.

Players like Lumb, Cassell, Smith, Lloyd, Simpson and some others are the backbone of our success for years to come, with a little luck. Gannon too if his head gets right. There are some good, talented, big lads coming through now and the time is right to make a run for glory with a couple more marquee type players.
