| Quote Pat Haddigan="Pat Haddigan"Being the most attractive to watch RL team in the world will NOT get the fans in if we're playing red hot rugby and losing.
A winning team has to be our priority - [uif that means 5 drives and a kick then so be it[/u.'"
I hope that isn't a selling point. If we are 'playing red hot rugby' surely we will be better than the opposition who expect the five & kick that has been the only tactic for a few years.

Don't know about you Frank, but I don't think I could stand too many tight games these days!

| Well quite frankly I have made a few friends at other clubs over the years and after the Batley game I got several messages saying watching as neutrals on Premier Sports they thought the game was really exciting to watch.
Much better imo is a game that goes right down to the wire as it keeps your interest right till the end.

| Next year will determine our short term future, so we have a GF goal and anything less is failure
I would love to be enthused week in week out by the product but next year is very special and has everything to play for, for once
I believe enough fans will buy into the importance and support it, I believe we should focus on the future not the whingeing fans stuck in the past

Are you saying that Dessie and Woody weren't exciting to watch Frank? What would you give to have had a Dessie on this wing this last season?

| So what I'm seeing is that some think winning regardless of style is the number one priority, and some think that entertaining rugby is the priority.
A small cross section of fans opinion on here I know but even so it shows how hard it is going to be for the coach and BOM going forward. I feel for next year we need to win to be in the top 2 at the end.
What will put more bums on seats is therefore debatable. What is not is that the core fans need to be supportive at all cost, and give constructive feedback/criticism to the right people when they think it is needed, and not slate the club, BOM, coach, players in the public forum. This BOM have stated their desire to give the fans a say in what happens going forward. Lets do that in a supportive way, not a destructive way.

| We HAVE to finish in the top two next year - so winning MUST be the priority. Of course, if we happen to entertain too, so much the better!
