Radford's attitude and comments worry me. He's talking about them being juiced up , scoring points and us having to not be the Harlem Globetrotters and concentrate on what we do without the ball etc. surely we should be looking to dominate a depleted KR side with only one win and looking to play good football and score points. If we go there to try to stop them we'll get on the back foot and lose badly. To me ,if his comments haven't been taken out of context , it's just the wrong message.

Really? Craven Park has been like a library this season.

Remeber that Frank , Sika , Mahe , Scott and probably Carlos have all played under coaching 'illumini' in Hasler, Bellamy and probably Wane. I'd hazard a guess that they have lost a bit of respect for Radfud and that's being played out in recent performances.
Sika Manu is a truly amazing player and we're not seeing the best of him. That disallowed try at Widnes was a glimpse of Sika.
Anyways , we only have Wire and Saints next. Where a team is after 9 games is almost exactly where they finish after 23 games give or take just 1 position difference.
I can't believe Toovey is still not a Head Coach after his amazing work at Manly.
Would you fire Radfud if we were given a lesson by that crop of shi*e across the river ?
Me personally I'd give him a 10 year deal

Well I won't be there (being 300 miles away and due at work tonight kind of puts paid to that) but looking forward to watching. Really important game this, it's almost hard to believe that despite the doom and gloom we have all felt in recent week we could go 4th with 1/3 of the regular season gone, but that's the prospect we face today.
I just think we need to concentrate on what we are going to do rather than how we stop them. If we go there trying not to lose as opposed to trying to win I think that's how we often come unstuck. If we play quickly and don't give soft penalties away then we should eventually simply overwhelm them, even if our attack isn't quite clicking.
On paper it should be a routine win, but it wouldn't be the first time I've said that before a derby only to find us well beaten.

Seen that, good news. Naughton wrote last night that he was pumped for it and having an early night which suggests he's playing too. I'm thinking Talanoa might be out.
