Why single out Pritchard when he has he same impact as the other interchanges. ?

We play q bullying game. Why are our big lads not lining to run the ball in like this life depends on it when we are 5 yards out?

With all due respect, Taylor has run out of petrol this season. Not a criticism, merel an observation.

singled out as he takes a shed load of our salary cap and some, singled out becayse he aint earning his keep, not by a long chalk. He certainly is not having the same impact as other interchanges, he doesn't do enough minutes/work rate for me, not for his level.
A for the oft thrown about 'well he makes loads of metres, it's not always reflective and I somtimes wonder who they are attributing metres to comparing written stats and watching all our matches back in full.

I don't believe that Frank himself is being singled out, more the manner in which we use him.
We've seen that when we play him out wide he's much more effective and Radders needs to address this so that we get value for money.

As others have said, Frank does the job he's being asked to do well. He always makes good metres and his workrate is excellent for a big man. We need him running wider, not just being used as a battering ram.

Anyone else notice that his knee wasn't strapped up like it has been all season.






Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

i wish he would be played along the left edge where he was favoured for at the Bulldogs ,all this up the middle isn't doing it for me,he ain't a prop and he isn't being utilised effectively

Was outstanding last year, power & a great handling game.

Best game this year, pre season friendly V Rovers, knocked them over like skittles, kept coming back with a big grin - expected it to be like that every week.

BUT that was running out wide & being allowed to pass. Suspect if we had a better prop interchange like Mickey Paea he would be out wide. Suspect Green & Bowden not yet doing enough to allow that to happen ?

personally I think he is being played in an area of the field were he is less effective. play him closer to the fringes, like we did with willie manu and I think he will rip teams apart.

keep playing him like we have in a more central role, and don't think we will get anymore from him

Pretty much think most of share the same view of to maximise the effectiveness of Pritchard he needs to be given the role of playing on the edges. Just having him effectively as a prop is not getting the best from him, ok he takes 3 & 4 men in the tackle which if we can get quick ball we could take advantage of (like earlier in the season) but by the time all the laying on has taken place the opposition are then set defensively.

I do think we have flogged both Mini & Manu and it is starting to show, again though earlier in the season we seemed to rotate Manu with Pritchard if memory serves me right.

I was surprised wih Radfords bench & interchanges against Warrington though as thought Green had been the better between him and Bowden of late and as much as some are not keen of Washbrook he brings some energy and brains when he comes on.






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