Rowley has gone, think we need to move on.

Need a coach ASAP, needs to help Myler with the big decisions

Just a few random thoughts, since travelling back from the London game:

That was Danny’s 3rd or 4th HIA in two seasons today, do we just agree with Danny, that the next home game with Leeds will be his last for the club and we can give him a send off that he deserves? We have to think about his health, we also have to look to the future. England have just announced the same with Jimmy Anderson that the First Test this season will be his last. Maximum respect yes, but no room for sentiment when you need to build for the future and he is not going to be around next season anyway.

Jordan Lane said in the HDM 5-6 weeks ago that the players knew what they had to do in training. How is that going Jordan?

In his post match interview, Simon Grix said that it wasn’t down to coaching today. If not, what does the coaching play book say about last tackle plays when you have Jake and Jack able to kick, but somehow from the PTB we give it to a forward to run it in on the half line? Where in the play book does it say do not kick the ball dead from the kick off? Both incidents led to their two tries before half time. Also after their penultimate try, we were 10 pts behind with about 12 mins left. At the kick off there was a 30m x 30m area with no covering London player, but 3 Hull players. We decided to kick deep?? Would a coach not encourage his players when chasing the game, to try something different. A 3 v 0 player advantage with a short kick off is likely to return possession!! Steve Evans will be turning in his grave, he was the master of the short kick off.

A great player, but Gaz has been part of the coaching team for 3 years now. As always, today he was running on and off the pitch giving advice to players. Either the players are ignoring him, aren’t good enough to execute what he is saying to them or the advice is wrong?

Whoever gets the job has got an almighty task ahead of them because Wayne Bennett couldn't get a tune out of this lazy, spineless, talentless team. If it was a feasible thing to do I'd keep Walker, Trueman, Ese'ese, Ashworth and a bunch of the youngsters and bin the rest. Unfortunately it's not fantasy rugby league so we are stuck with this rubbish for a while yet.

Beaumont taking a swipe at the club on twitter last night. Love to be a fly on the wall at his place if we announce Lam

On the subject of Grix's comments about it not being the coaching, the truth is that he is probably right... to a point.

How many coaches have we had over the years saying about how well the players train and then it gets to the game and we get performances like yesterday? Coach after coach can't be getting the training wrong all the time. That's not excusing the coaches but there's got to be more to it. Something seems to happen between training and the match where it seems to really come down to what mood the players are in that particular week and it's been that way for years. Look up McRae's cancer comment from 20 odd years ago and you can apply that to our current squad. It very much feels like it's a mentality issue to me and until someone can root out that kind of culture (yes, I know people hate that word!) we'll never be able to forge the new identity that Myler is seeking because they'll inevitably revert back to old habits. It only took them a few games to do that with Grix.

He's obviously got a been in his bonnet about us at the moment but to be fair to him, I don't think he's wrong with what he said.
