Callum Lancaster comes in to cover injuries, plays excellently in a tough away game, scores twice, hasn't played since. Jordan Rankin comes in to cover injuries, plays decently, dropped as soon as everybody is fit again. Curtis Naughton....
As a coach, even if you think you have a best team on paper, and that team has the best chance of winning that match (and given the way Yeaman et al are playing it's difficult to see why he thinks that way) it's more damaging in the long term to do what he's doing, dropping players who've stuck their hand up and played well in order to shoe horn regulars/favourites back in. It fosters an attitude among the chosen few that they don't really have to try for their place, while making the others wonder what the point of bothering is.
And that's without going into the logic of we can't have Rankin on the bench because it's a waste of an interchange, but we can have 3 hookers and use Howarth (who is bang average) for just 15 minutes.

When will Radford realise Yeaman is past it?
He is garbage, been rubbish for two seasons now. Time to get rid. Tonight was appalling, if it wasn't for having to justify my season pass I wouldn't be going back.

Watching wakey last night they are much better than us with ball in hand as are leigh and probably bradford. If pearson doesn't act and bring in a new coach then I genuinely fear for our SL survival.
No doubt now we will finish outside the 8 and unless radford goes it will be bottom 2. If pearson doesn't act I will have to believe that his motives towards the club are in question as it's obvious to everyone radford is so far out of his depth that even someone who has never seen the game in their lives could see it
And this. Oh dear.

Never got out of first gear, Bab. And don't say we were out-enthused, Hudds didn't need nor display any of that, either. Coasted along in neutral, in fact, and still had 10 times the horsepower and nous than us.
