You just can't bring yourself to admit that Radford is a failure and isn't up to the job..why is that?
Nonsense - as I've said countless times Radford can leave today for all I care. What part of that sentence is proving difficult for you to comprehend ?
What I will do is give credit where it's due and criticise where necessary. You only do the latter - why is that ? Where was your praise of Radford after the Hudds and Wire performances ? Or is it only shambolic performances like the 40 mins last night that can be attributed to the coaching ? As for the youngsters thing we're miles behind in player development and talent. Despite some serious investment I'm yet to be convinced that we're getting any better at it.
Radford's biggest mistake this season so far is his squad strength at prop forward. It seems clear that Ellis will have to move inside and Thompson play in his place in the left second row. It's a shame we couldn't get Taylor for this season when we tried to because Green and Bowden are not taking their opportunities and when injuries hit we've nothing left as last night's bench clearly illustrated.
