Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "The game is played for 80 minutes. It's extremely rare to fluke a win in RL. We defended fairly well for the entire game. Our attack was flat for the first 60 mins. Was the the coaches instruction? I very much doubt it, given the quotes for the coach and senior players in recent weeks. When we did run the ball on the last, Mini flipped the ball into Sio's hands and we conceded.

I think there are few on here who only watch highlights of game on TV. The idea a team can throw the ball around like a pass the parcel game on every set is deluded. Every team will have sets of one out stuff. It's part of the game. It's what you do with it close to the line which is more of a concern. Ironically, having our big lads charging on to the ball from a yard or two out might actually be a better thing to do.

But then again there are a fair few on here who seek to criticise when we win a game from 20 nil down with 20 mins left in the back yard of our arch rivals.

Did we deserve to win? We scored more tries and (more importantly) more points than the opposition. One things for sure, Rovers didn't deserve it win and that's purely down tho their final 20 minutes.

A team with a decent set of fans (sweeping statement, but you get my drift) would be talking about "finding a way to win" yet some on here maintain the anti radford agenda. I honestly do know why some bother .'"


Yes we won, but why don't we expect more. Why do we except mediocrity more than most other clubs. We beat Hull KR for goodness sake, yes we came back but it was not and is not good enough.

Lets deal with facts, as Benitez would say;
In the previous 2 seasons - against Wire we have won 1 out of 5 games; Leeds we have won 1 out of 6 games; Wigan we have won 0 out of 4 games, conceding on average 40 points per game against Wigan.

These will be the same fans that will still have the blind faith going into Warrington on Monday.

So you admit the strategy was wrong from the outset, the strategy whatever it was left us 20 points behind without us scoring. That's a hell of a plan! Why did it take so long to change things if it was patently obvious that that wasn't working?
The players are clearly not happy with the focus being on defence and that shows. That we have gone downhill under Radford defensively alludes you, as the Salford, Catalans and the last 20 mins Friday shows, we are much happier with a more open style of play (that doesn't mean chuck It about every set). The Cas, Wigan and Wakey game we looked completely different different, that's down to the coach surely or are you nasing everything that's crap on the players and everything great on the coach?
I implore Radford to grasp what works for us best, what will it take for him to do so as he's had several examples to give him some clues.

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?:

This is quite possibly the biggest load of rubbish I've ever seen you post. Which is going some, frankly.

Don't worry Kosh. I'm sure he'll be back with even more ludicrous stuff very shortly.

Quote: airliebird,runninglate! "What a tremendous load of tripe. Pritchard was 1 of the standouts in the NRL last yr, to say otherwise is just stupid and totally lacking of rugby knowledge and ignoring what decent callers of the game like sterling fitler gould n johns were saying.'"


Pritchard was not even the standout back rower of the Bulldogs last season according to Phil Gould. That honour went to Josh Jackson who was named in Gould's NRL team of 2015. Gould considered 8 players for the 2 positions and Pritchard was not included.
