Signs that Radford may finally be getting it right,we attacked from the off and scored some bloody good try's,just stupid mistakes by individuals cost us tonight...Something Radford can't control.

Hopefully the players we have got coming in will eradicate silly errors, but you know its once they pull on a fc jersey it just has to happen lol

Double post

i thought best team lost,rankin was very sloppy in defence tonight and i dontthink logan is big enough

Average age 22 reportedly.

Too much dumb stuff tonight and 2 points thrown away. Fook knows how ranking has been playing every week whilst shaul has been sat twiddling his thumbs. ranking can't catch or tackle

I think our first training session next season should be in the class room .

Yes Radford said that when interviewed after the game. Without working it out I would be surprised if he is right
although it's pleasing to see a decent number of academy products in the team.

It's too easy to absolve all the blame from the coaching set up though, Radford and his team DO have a direct hand in how the players behave/perform on field otherwise why even have a coach team right?

individuals make mistakes for many reasons, as a coach you have to address all the problems that seem to crop up time and time again, and for us those issues do keep cropping up.

fatigue -lack of fitness/too many minutes or not being spelled correctly/playing with injury
mental preparation/mental attitude, being able to focus during times of duress, not switching off, decision making, all things that the coaching team need to re-inforce and use strategies to reduce those actions/thoughts that act as negatives.
Basic Skills, simple yet critical aspects have being critisised by many on the forums relating to the players performance/ability to perform the basics.

Whilst players have to take responsibility for their actions/how they play, it's a collective responsibility, the inexperience/lack of understanding & the way the coaching team do things does has had an impact on why & how many errors we make, how we string together our play, that is reflective of the overall seasons performance. Inconsistant, ranging from sublime to the downright horrible and this match was another of those games that mirror that inconsistancy of the season .

Looking at the title of this thread! 4 times we beat you this season, 3 times at your place. Each time prior to the game saying you were gonna give it to us.
