Totally un acceptable showing ,yes they looked tired but they still had to many handling errors,to many stupid penalties played into their hands .Players and Radford need to have a really close look at themselves.We the fans deserve far far better .Mickey Paea must be well miffed with some of his fellow players little wonder he chose to leave.Unless we see a miracle we wont make top eight and on that showing championship looks a real possibility

Just shows how important halves are. Abdull put Yeaman in superbly early on then spent the rest of the match hoofing the ball miles down the field. Better off playing one of the young halves and letting him play as a loose forward. Rankin was utter rubbish - another one who can't pass the ball under pressure. I'd release Sa now as he has never regained enough fitness for League since he joined.

to be fair to Radford, your players were a disgrace tonight, didn't want to know,and when the going got tough, they chickened out....can't see how you can blame the coach when the players simply can't be bothered earning their wages.

I cannot find any way to describe what I'm feeling now about that game. You get what you deserve - that applies 100% to the players and coach and 0% to the long suffering fans.

Embarrassing and not because of the team we were playing but the manner in which we played. First 20 minutes 16 nil up and playing super league standard rugby final 60 minutes playing under 8 Sunday league rugby. Granted we played at the weekend and I would have expected tiredness to have played a part in our game at some point but the manner in which they capitulated was inexcusable and all too familiar. Yes I am gutted and just hope they can pull it around on Sunday but feel the top 8 has passed us by.
