Makes one wonder what things were like under Radford given that we’ve started playing such smarter rugby already. Even the Radford trademark bash-and-crash stuff is better eg Cam Scott’s try.

I think that’s what many had said myself included that the squad was a good squad but was massively under performing and so inconsistent under Radford. It had got to the point where the defence that was fairly good previously had been in disarray for at least the past two seasons and the high and lows where worse than ever and he had no answers. Think most would agree the change was needed and probably a season or two sooner.

It was interesting to read a comment by William Jackson in the mail after the Salford game where he mentioned Scott Taylor. He put in his article something along the lines of the club now has a coach he can get along with and is enjoying his rugby again and it’s showing. Can’t find the article now but was surprised to read that as I was under the impression he got on with Radford.






I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

I think Tag speaks his mind as part of the leadership group and wouldn’t be surprised if he’d fallen out with Radford. He’s got previous for training ground bust ups with Josh Jones a recent example.

We certainly did but the response from the players and the noises coming out of the club indicate it was the right choice but as a certain poster alluded too BH has not won anything yet ( think it was Lee himself posting :lol:)
I suppose though BH has won the players and fans respect and brought a new found ethos and a feel good factor to the club and so far so good although it's early days.

I thought the club had missed a trick in not appointing Watson (wasn’t fussed on Powell), but when BH came he soon won me over.
Like his ethos, and the way he’s united the team.
Also think he’ll have great contacts in the game, and a high standing with his peers.

We’ll have tough times , but I really like what he says.

Also no BH, no Reynolds!

I’m happy with Brett. He comes across well and has obviously has already made an impact on the squad and fans.

I’m glad we didn’t get Ian Watson. He just goes on about D and Process. He sounds like a bloody robot. Even Ash Golding at our Sky game on Saturday was just saying how it’s all about how you go from O to D and D to O. Ian Watson should be investigated by the ‘Line of Duty’ team for excessive use of abbreviations!

Funny enough I was reading the Cas forum posts, and there’s a couple on there saying Watts had fell out with Powell, and he didn’t do his usual minutes on the field.

Then again there’s a thread on the Leeds forum, started by a guy, who knows a guy, who has Connor nailed on for Leeds.
