Lies, damn lies and statistics. Nothing against Atkins, but I think it's fair to say, at this point in their careers, Shenton has more of a rugby brain than Atkins has.

id try at atkins in the 2nd row next year.

I would try him there now, we know he has the power, we have seen him drive into tackles and off loading, all this talk about players been played out off position isn't that far off than second row worth a try just to see what we can do on his wing,
FWIW I don't want him to leave

For me Ryan A would make a Semi Tad type of winger; good on the crash 10 metres/yards out, runs through/over the top of players instead of around them, can't pass a ball, both forget their passports. Tad is the perfect role model for Ryan, but forget about the medical expertise.
We might even see the original back here with Bradford getting rid of players 'for business reasons' and us seemingly wanting a winger.

Wouldn't argue with that back line at all. Never gonna happen though.

What no one has yet mentioned is that on Sunday we started with positions 1 to 5 being British, I don't think we achieved 1 to 7 in the game but for most of the 2nd half I was as confused as the players as to who was playing where.

But didn't JD go into the centres.

Have tried to keep out of his but i do agree, it seems someone is"weekly" target and this week its Ryan.

Lets just look at other players who we are paying and not getting any value from shall we.

Ryan

Yes mate i know the problems and thats down to JK to sort and improve that part of Ryans game, just think we are a little quick to pull the trigger at times.

Try working it out, pound notes v minutes on the pitch.

Drew?
Blanch?
Latu?
Petersen?

Blanch, well that really can't be helped with that sort of injury.

Petos gone anyway.

The other two, well i'm not too sure we are getting value from them, all players pick up injuries but some seem to have more probs than others.


I think times up for both of them.
