Quote ="frepneyboy"Should have gone straight off instead of costing us 2 tries.
Why did they flog a crippled Pritchard for 70 minutes leaving Mini on the bench till half time. Almost as stupid as bringing Frank on for the last 3 mins against Cas'"
If Radford is to criticised it should be for his interchanges and never having a plan B when things are going wrong
Pritchard is an impact player with a great offload and should be used as such.
Manu is being flogged 60/70 min without interchange like Mini was last year when there is no reason
Just what was Radford thinking having Mini,Watts and Thompson on the bench when we all can see our best starting forwards have been Taylor,Watts,Mini Manu and Thompson with the impact of Ellis.Pritchard and Bowden off the bench.
I could maybe understand Watts benched,but did he think it was some great game plan to confuse Widnes? I dont think so
We have gone back to slow labored play and one man drives in the opposition 20.What has happened to our offload game?
Watts makes a major error and now we dont offload. That has to come from the coach.
We are a 6 short of a good side.Give us a Lui,Campese,Roberts or Sandow and we would be up there with the best of Super League.
This result will mean Tuimavave will now move to 6 which is not a bad thing,and i hate to say it Yeaman back in the centre.
Would rather have moved Micheals back into centre and bring Naughton in on the wing.
I think we may see Hadley back in the frame for the next match in place of Thompson.
