Regarding Jacob Miller:

Quote:"Unfortunately our fans don't allow for a player to develop over three years, they want it yesterday. We had no choice but to bring someone in who we felt was a bit further on in their career at the time."



Funny because I recall most fans wanting him to play!

Wakey fans were just as bad early in the season and last year, despite his good form I still don't think he has good enough skills to be a top halfback.

Silly statement from Radford though, he really needs to think before he speaks sometimes.

He's partly right though if you read the article. Miller was brought in to do a job he was unable to do at the time (20) and the fans recognised this and that Sneyd and Pryce brought more to the table, again at the time. Not sure it's our fault for wanting a more successful team given the preceding barren years though. Also, and I may be wrong, wasn't Miller cited as one player Pearson and Radford disagreed on, AP rating him and Radford not?

Poor comment blaming all the fans. He obviously didn't rate him and wanted him out. He was brought over to do a job he wasn't ready to do. It's good to see him fulfilling his potential at Wakefield.

FFS, for some on here its any opportunity to have a dig at LR.

Its an honest and fair assessment.

I'd rather hear honesty than the bland apologist comment you get from most in the media.

i was quite happy to give him time, a 20 year old half back who appeared to have all the skills.

I don't know who these fans are that Radford claims to understand but a lot of the times when he expresses the fans views he gets it dead wrong.

radford's default position is that everything is always someone else's fault. I don;t think he's really blaming the fans, just not accepting any responsibility for binning miller himself. It was the right decision no matter who made it

Some of our fans are abusive to our halfbacks. I assume Radford is mistaking the minority of idiots for the rest of us.

Even our current halfbacks get stick. I often hear that Sneyd is a waste of money and that Pryce is a lazy person.

Lets face it, not all of our fans are civil or smart. Radford gets abused in the street so he's entitled to have a pop if he wants. If you don't agree with his comments then he's not talking about you.

Yep I got told that by Pearson himself, Radford didn't rate Miller and wanted rid.
