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.
