Don't the coaches pick the players?
The selection scope is very, very limited with injuries and international call ups.  Basic skills are terrible and not just with us.  It seems the scourge of the modern game, over coached (OK a coaching fault) and lacking basic skills.  Any player selected should be expected to perform to a satisfactory level, not outstanding but competent at least.  What we have seen this season in all countries has been sub standard rubbish and will drive fans away from the game.

Across the two conferences we have the 3rd most amount of points. I think, given those stats, however poor the performances, you can't really talk about getting rid of coaches.

4th most, but Connach have two games in hand
 So 5th in a league with Italians and Dragons. So 5th of 9 decent teams. Maybe 10 incl Bennetton.

Okay let's forget the headline of coaches out. I only added to it tonight to not start a new thread. Defence has been great this season. We are no pushover, however where have we progressed? What is our gameplan? Who coaches our back line and skills? Why can't they teach a player to stop overrunning or run a straight line? What has happened to Hardy? Why don't they play Asquith?

As you will see I'm quite happy to praise. Bath was a stormer of a result. However we are awful to watch. The group appear tight I agree, but where are we progressing? Our attack and phase play is woeful. On the plus side darts have improved!

What is delusional? Please offer me an insight instead of an insult. 
The fact he has had huge injury list a Number of positive Covid tests in squad and the fact we have won so many games usually in horrendous conditions that say he is doing a great job.

[QUOTE=Sosban89]You can look at it two ways. 

- We are winning games, while looking very poor offensively and giving away too many penalties. They often say it's a good trait to win games where you don't play well.

- Yes, we are winning games, but the performances are poor, and there is no indication we are going to step up our performances any time soon.

Either way, only time will tell, everything else is pure conjecture. 
[/QUOTE

All I know is we are winning, we beat bath with a big performance and there’s a pandemic. Not an ideal time to talk about sacking the coaches.

Well said G. Make one’s point without the personal / demeaning comments of players and coaches would be great new year resolution! 👍 It can’t be helpful to Crys16 as well to meet the club sometimes when some stuff gets too personal

This is a fans forum yes? I'm offering an opinion. It would be very quiet without one.

 Six wins from 7 games counting Toulon, only loss the controversial defeat to Ulster by 2 points, missing 27 players . Our back play as been not been great,depending on backs fitness for Blues I would change probably 6 players there .

   Blues game needs to be used as a dress rehearsal for Toulon, with only 14 tries scored in 10 games in Pro 14,disappointing .

Rugby is a bonus? Is that a serious point? 
 
 
Good points made. I think we are doing ok. Rugby is a bonus let alone new coaches.
