if we did that boy would we have a big backline,

Does the modern day fullback tackle? Usually when their is a break they have men either side for me although I agree Miloudi is a liability and isn't the greatest in D surely he must be given a chance.

If you look at some of the last ditch tackles Jamie Shaul has made especially when he gets under the player and stops the grounding the answer is yes but i do understand where you are coming from.
Part of why Hardaker is a top full back is his defence.
As for Miloudi i think he has been given his chance several times and probably now is no longer in Radfords plans going forward

Not sure about that Bonaire, the French lad would make a good off half, he looks assured in this position. He offers something different, and has an explosive burst of pace from standing, as for loads of chances, perhaps not a fullback as he was a little found out there.
Unfortunately for him his chance of playing in the halves is probably not going to happen, he is an enigma that’s for sure.

Has he been given enough chances?

Had a poor game against Cas on the wing, but I'd say overall in his limited appearances he has impressed.

I'd give him a chance this week

If we need to play miloudi we'd be better putting him at stand off and kelly at FB IMO. Will be much better defensively and will still be in the mix in attack

Who's missing for Friday then?

shaul
connor
dawson
green
bowden
westerman?

That's about the least injuries we've had in a year. Only about half a team missing so progress

I presume mini will play as his wife was due to give birth hence not travelling to london but if she hasn't yet then a home game shouldn't be an issue.

I can see radford playing griffin at FB, moving faraimo to centre and putting the bin man on the wing

He did have a poor game on the wing against Castleford but his best performances for the club have been on the wing.
He is a liability at full back so cant see Radford giving him another chance.
Looks like Griffin will be starting full back and as i said previously it would be easier to move Faraimo to centre where he has played for the USA and Talanoa returns to the wing.
From the reserves we have available cant see any other option although Connor Wynne is fit again but cant see Radford playing a rookie at full back.

Concussion occurs when the brain moves extremely fast within the cranium. The knock to the head could fracture the skull or break the skin but it’s the actual motion of the impact. When boxers get cracked on the chin, again it’s the motion that causes the the concussion. The inside of the cranium is not smooth but it’s jagged to hold the brain which is also not smooth. The fast whipping motion causes the brain to move within the cranium which in turn gets damaged. Boxers mostly get hit about the face or side of the head and lots of brain injury can cause “punch drunk”, that’s the slow deliberate speech as if drunk. A skull cap will not save the brain getting damaged but protects the skin and the ears. The only way to offer head protection is to play with a crash hat like the yanks in their footy game, NFL.

Helmets don't do much either... https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.latime ... utType=amp Just glad both sports seem keen on protecting the players as best they can that we watch week in week out.
