For me its a NO purely and simply because we look so clueless when it comes to scoring.

Defence is ok but our toothless attack and the total lack of options/angled runners/dummy runners and any attacking flair is just non existant and that is why we won't. We have players who have the ability to off load but just dont use this to any advantage and support play and running onto the ball seems to be a no no as we are only to happy to receive the ball whilst stood. For mine Radford is just reading out of the Bradford Bulls play book from 2K onwards and taking the club even further backwards than we were last season.

I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

So your trying to tell us that Radford tells the players not to back up?not to run on to the ball? last season we scored more points then we did in 2013 under gentle. Yes we lack the things you say but what your saying is basic rugby something every player is taught from schoolboy age ,if you think that Radford is stopping them from doing the basics and its not the players then your kidding yourself

There's a difference between stopping someone doing something and actively encouraging it through coaching and training. It's clear we don't do it as a team Virtually no one in the squad does it so are you saying this is some kind of collective memory loss, players lacking in ability (if it is then who has recruited them?) or simply them deciding not to do it?

I'm going to say yes - just

My logic is we can't be any worse than the first half of the season and only a marginal improvement should see us sneak 8th? If the Noble rumour is true then that could be worth a few points to.

I fully expect a reaction against KR in the next game and think after Friday (where I don't expect a result) the next 3 against Saints, KR & Widnes are winnable?

I also get the feeling the KR away pen-ultimate game will have a say on both clubs finishing top 8.

:lol: BY ONE! In a league where the bottom side were absolute whipping boys conceding record points, and the team second bottom also shipped more points than anyone in 2013. Brilliant.

I really don't get this defence of a coach where the ridiculous notion of them instructing players not to do things is put forward in a (hopefully) ironic way. I don't think anyone is truly suggesting or believing that Radford is telling players not to back up or run on to the ball. The point is not that a coach is only at fault if he tells the players to do the wrong thing or not to do the right thing, it's their job to get them to do the right things! If players are not doing as instructed, the coach still has to shoulder some of the responsibility. By your logic, if a class of maths students can't count it's purely the students' faults for not listening.
