I think the problem lies in our reluctance to throw the ball around. On friday did we ever try to get the ball out wide just inside our half?
We got drawn into the style of play we used against Wakey. It was all down the middle stuff.
Yet against Saints we were more expansive and it paid off. Just look at Domic`s try. Manu , Sing and Sid out wide in our own half and moving at pace.

But who is not quite as good at being 'steady'.

IF we drop Radders from the first 13 it needs to be in favour of Manu. We don't have the quality in the squad to drop him from the squad totally.
and we'll need a new captain.

Correct. Morgan has been offered the player you are referring to providing their is a clause in his contract he can't play in the first derby...
However, Morgan isn't keen and doesn't rate the player...

Neither centre offered anything at all in attack, and they DID have opportunities to do so. Yeaman in particular looked like he just wasn't interested - even his defence was ropey.
In the second half, when we were pressing on their line, we didn't have one single player in motion as the halfbacks had the ball.
No-one is saying the halfbacks played well, but they were hardly alone. We have had a collective failure to perform this season and I'm struggling to understand why some folk want to pretend that the only problem is at halfback.
Your opinion probably isn't up to much then, as Sharp allways plays Radford and picked him as captain.
Plus, when Justin Morgan was asked which three players from Hull FC's squad he'd most like to have at rovers, Radford was one of the first names he mentioned.
I reckon JM and PS know a tad more about rugby league than yourself.
