Macca shows more in attack than Radford and has more strings to his bow. IMO of course. And I said I'd rather play Macca - not let's play Macca. We have other options, like giving Manu more game time for one.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One

Also watch how often we were turned on our backs and failed to turn the Wigan players on their backs and also watch to see how many times we even attempted to offload the ball and compare to the St Helens game.
The half backs are recieving lots of criticism at the minute but its a little harsh to try to blame the current situation totally on them. We have a stand off who is an exceptional broken play player but not so much a creator yet were expecting him to make the gaps and the rest to support, when to get the best out of him the players should be running at the gaps and he should be getting the ball to them. We have an already established exeptional Hooker who apparently needs to understudy to another expectional Hooker yet we're expecting a 19 year old kid to be rushed into the side because of injury and make things happen without this luxury.
Excellent post. Our offloads were nil compared with the week before and as for the lack of movement, Wigan were asked no questions from us in attack. Its easy to blame Horne/Lee so everybody does.

Radders is a boring player in RL terms. He just plods the ball in and defends all game and you never really notice him. IF he were not there however we would notice the massive hole he would leave. He should not be captain imo but I would definately have him in my team every week.

Workhorse!
No, no, no Paul!
Macca produced a couple of kicks a season or two ago, he's obviously the far better player. Release Radders and give Macca a two year extension, I say!

Mcmenemy is a similar player to Radders except he has extra skill to offer. He has been excellent for Hull in his time here.
