Leeds Rhinos • Re: Nepotism
Good post and you sound like a really good fan. The problem is our issues are not an easy fix, as the decline is so set in. I actually think we’d still be ok if we could somehow improve the quality of the squad. Not like good old days though. You can’t just go out and buy quality.
My criticisms in recent years have been selling a player like Parcell for no apparent reason, and with no better replacement. Even Garbutt to a degree. Then Konnie. Ok he had his critics, but Struth he was better to watch than this lot. I know people will say he wanted to leave, but we could equally have kept him if we really wanted to. I know I keep harping on about left centre, but it really is a pivotal position. All our teams who’ve won something had international quality at LC (Senior, Hardaker (short while), Moon, Konnie).
I know we won a final with Sutty at LC 2017, but injuries and confidence have reduced the potential he once had.
Rant over!
