However this comes undone when teams get injuries, particularly in the forwards in which you rely on so much and to set the tone, it also narrows your threat because you're so reliant on that mode of play. This has been highlighted by many and the fact, yes fact our red zone attack is too often just clueless rubbish.
Additionally you ignore my particular criticisms, repeating same mistakes/errors/discipline, again most on here say all that every match thread, that's the coaches inability to coach that out for whatever reason.
My other criticism was regarding the youth, I've pointed out and explained fully what I believe are his failings on that as I have everything else. I give plenty of praise but you like others don't want to acknowledge I've said good stuff about Radford.
Time and again people on here say Radford needs an attack coach, time and again posters say he need to address mistakes/errors/discipline, but he doesn't, he won't acknowledge his weaknesses and that's holding us back.
As for the losing two semis, if Radford hadn't punched Bailey we could have been in the GF, if Shaul outpaces Charnley in'13 we'd likely have won the CC wíth a team half full of rookies, we got massively gortunate with injurues in '16, if we hadn't we would't likely have won the CC. It's all ifs and buts,
ATEOTD I want more, everyone said we need to 'kick on' from 2016, we haven't, many say we've gone backwards, Radford in my honest opinion will not take us forward as things stand. Either a change here and there and better understanding of the issues holding us back that he can control or he gets help to do that, currently it's neither.
Zzzzz
