Who exactly isn't performing or not up to it?

Radford copping lot of flack and I think we definatly need a more experianced coach rather than the cheap option, butttt interested to hear peoples opinions on the squad which obviously isn't good enough AGAIN

I thought we were weak at prop but they've actually done ok. Back row is strong but too one dimensional, we need a second row with better hands who can link up, Whitehead would be perfect. Houghton is average, our back up hookers probably aren't good enough although Cunningham deserves more of a chance. Sneyd has disappointed a bit, but both halves are ok and we have a bit of depth there. Wings are good, centres are terrible, full backs are good.

So basically, we aren't title winning material, but the squad we have is much better than 11th.

Good post and agree with it all.we need a line breaking 2nd rower and a strike centre.We also released the wrong hooker IMO and are feeling the effect as Houghton is very average and isn't even in the top 6 hookers in the league

I don't think the squad is to bad , It just needs someone to get it moving in the right direction . Centre is definitely a position we need to add speed in . The forwards arn't doing a bad job either and are giving some platform for the backs to work with . Pryce has been in my top 3 for most games so far but Sneyd is looking bang average .

I think IF we had a coaching regime, with a history of improving existing players, not many....

Certain players, need re-training,and re-educating.. and attacking as a team..

But, we need a strike centre, and a different style of back-rower... -IMO

Yeah, if only we had a strike centre, someone who could break the line, run 80 meters and knows how to put his winger away....

Theres one at Parra contracted to us but our coach in his infinite wisdom managed him out the club. So frustrating.

Talanoa at centre, Lancaster full time on the wing?

Or new centre all together?
