I think we maybe need to be just a little braver in respect of our off half position. How good are Dean and Tyson Wilson. I don't know because I last saw HTW play when he was ten. If either are good enough then perhaps they should play. That's no disrespect to Washbrook who has been a revalation off the bench. We are nearly there . The rest of our season should be faced with confidence. I think we can compete on our day with anyone. I am looking forward to the future. More Rioja anyone?'"
Fully agree that off half is our major problem. I like Pryce and he shows glimpses of real quality, but just don't get enough minutes from him. We need a more robust Plan B than getting Washy to fill in, as he's been doing great work elsewhere in the team.

Whilst I agree with the above statement, I also think having Shaul would've won us the game. We made far more meters and the massive difference was the lack of support play for those breaks. Shaul would've been backing Frank up each time and we'd have been laughing as Leeds had their heads down. We let their confidence grow, you could feel it happening from Western Terrace and as South Stand grew louder, so did Leeds. We need to be the type of team that puts teams to bed and doesn't allow them to gain confidence, and support play clearly needs to be a priority for all players, not just Shaul!!

The three clubs above us have won 8 lost 3 so I'd agree 7 v 4 is not a bad return. Radford is nursing the squad through a part of the season where I believe injuries have hit us badly in the past - especially when feeling the need to get them back before fully recovered. Keeping players on the sideline until they are fit and taking the odd risk with team selection (like against Warrington and Leeds) will hopefully pay dividends at the "business end" of the season. Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing the team play on firmer, drier grounds (not artificial ones).
Feeling more and more hopeful that some of my bets might well come in - the odds have certainly shortened since the start of the season.

| We started with a new blend and they nor we didn't how good it would be. Half way through we know we are actually pretty good. The brain fart apart, our few losses have been even narrower than last year's. We've learnt game management, we now have the mind set to win games from behind. If from this good start Radders can instill hunger and desire rather than over confidence and complacency that has been before then we might just be in the mix up for a shiny pot with ribbons on it.
