20 is too much for a non 'die hard' fan to come to the games. I started coming about 5ish years ago when it was a tenner and got a lot of my mates to turn up for odd games. Soon they became more regular attendees, however when i now tell them its 20 the general response is 'that's a bit steep i will give it a miss'.

Also i guess the figures would be better if they actually allowed members to buy their ticket before the match day. I went in last Wednesday to get mine for Hull and was told by the lady on reception that i would have to queue up on the day to get the ticket. Genuinely don't understand the thinking for that, surely refusing to sell a ticket to someone is utterly mental when you are trying to get more fans through the door. Even she thought it was ridiculous

I agree, the tackle count should go primarily to the 1st man in, but i'm afraid nowadays it doesn't it's counted as the 1st 3 men in.

Honestly i'm not having a go. So what do you think Adamson brings to the table as a superleague 2nd rower. If i was coaching i'd want more than a defensive stint at this level. Obviously PV must see something for picking him and because we're winning nobody takes notice, but i can see flaws in his game where he's let in 3-4 soft tries through lack of concentration or he fails to read a game. These are just a few off the top of my head.

1.Rangi Chase cross kick for richard owen to pounce onto for 4 points. Lazy Defence
2.Jon Wilkin hit the ball at pace to score. wrong footing Adamson.
3.Kaufusi burst. smashing over Adamson on tryline

Lyrad Red.

I watch him week in week out. Elaborate on unseen work?

Looking at the stats and comparing Adamson to several 2nd rows it tells a story. Basically he's in their just to tackle. Oh well if that what PV wants and it's working why change it.

Stats dont lie.
Yes he is in there to tackle and do a job which he does well.
4 yrs of stagnation under SMC have certainly damaged his game, and if you remember when he first came in the team (if you actually attended the games then)he was touted as the next big thing.
I hope under the guidance of PV he will rediscover the attacking game we know he has.
Until then get off his and the other players backs.

Anyone who REALLY knows rugby can see that Adamson has loads of ability just by watching him in the warm up before the game.

Do not write this lad off!!!!

I think with good coaching he can be a steady player, but when confidence is low he can be a massive weak link a times.
