Maybe so but what I do notice about Griffin is his switching off and lack of commitment in defence.

It is costing us.

He made no effort to tackle Webster at Cas and he had a free run to the posts for a crucial try just before half-time.

At Salford the crucial try came when Johnson made a break from dummy half because Griffin at marker switched off and made no effort to tackle him.

He needs to greatly improve that side of his game.

Yes but that team included Gaz Ellis,Watts and Fonua
At the moment we are miles away from those performances on the field

Salford match emphasised the fact that games are won in the forwards.
With Watts gone, Mini & Washy likely to go later this year plus Kelly, imo were gonna need a prop, second row and a new half (to help inject some more guile into this team).
Dropping one of Fash, Masi, Lane or Turgut into our gameday 17 is great but playing a few of these lads all at once against a rugged and experienced pack will see us over-run like we were on Friday. Any new forwards need to be a bit nasty as we're just too nice at the moment! Maybe it's also time to replace Talanoa with some real pace next year as we're too predictable and maybe teams have worked us out (not that difficult)!
Bit early to write us off just yet this year but all teams need to morph and evolve as they go along to offer new and different threats.

I get the feeling Sneyd maybe overawed by Connor hence poor communication

Sneyd/Connor just doesnt work and i have not seen enough of Abdull to say he could be our 6 next season.
We need to keep Manu as I think its Minis last season.
I agree on Talanaoa.he is becoming a liability in defence so its a difficult one for club.
I see what you mean about Griffin but for me he just doesnt cut it as a centre or wing.What you are suggesting is a replacement for Talanoa but he is the same with poor defence and is no faster than Talanoa.You can count on one hand the number of decent games he has had since been at the club and his try scoring record is dreadful.Very poor signing but i would still use him off the bench as an impact player until we get some injured players back.


We had a replacement in Rawsthorne but we let him go

Does he, any quotes from Radford about signing him, or are you just using a rumour to have a dig at Radford?

Griffin admitted he was lazy at the beginning of the season
Leopards never change their spots and what I can only assume we’re seeing is the laziness that never really goes away






I have lost interest

We don't play to griffin's strengths. He needs quick ball to give him space to work in but he rarely gets it. He isn't a 2nd rower either
