I think DDD summed it up very nicely when he said the pack is full of players who are too similar. If we just had Radford he'd be a good player but we don't, we have Dowes, Tickle, Burnett, Maloney, Yak who very similar.

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!

Yep, and when he added that they all have to playing at the top of their game for us to win.

Calderwood batted the ball back, and Radford looked like he was walking a dog on a sunday afternoon! did he not think he might be needed to chase the short kick off??
That is something Calderwood has done all through his career, yet the rest of our players are too dumb to realise it!

But obviously it's his fault.
he has your right, and yet the rest of the team still look baffled when it happens!
i suppose usually Tickle only does the short kick off when theres 1 minute to go, so they aren't used to it

It's always funny when that one gets rolled out (not that I think you're suggesting it seriously).
He expends most of his energy turning his back to the tacklers, sitting on them for a while, then slowing rolling over to get as slow a PTB as you're ever likely to see. I've genuinely seen players with broken legs/ankles get to their feet to play it quicker than Radford does.
