| Shaul and Connor offer something but no way are Bowden and Green going to make a difference. They are steady Eddie, average SL props. We've only got one quality prop at the club.
Tonight was shameful and that's the third time we've shipped 60+ points in seventeen games.

| Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "There are two ways to look at this. Either we have a squad that is capable of winning things but that just aren't performing anywhere near their potential. Or, we have gone from having arguably the best squad in SL to one that is bottom 4 standard in the space of two years. I am somewhere in the middle. I think we are good enough on paper to be making the top 5, but probably need a couple of good additions to be genuine contenders.
Whichever side of the argument you are on, Radford has to take the blame. Either he can't get a performance out of a good side, or he has allowed a side that came very close to a treble to be completely dismantled.'"
Don't disagree at all that our squad quality has been diluted whilst Wire and Saints have stepped on. I do think factors in play are that we have less to spend and that we chose to invest a proportion of our budget on the reserves which those teams didn't. Sacking Watts and not replacing him is a good totem for our recruitment of the last couple of years.

Did it once. I have seen Jamie Shaul do the same loads of times. Miloudi is one of the few players who had a dig tonight. Maybe he isn't quite good enough at this level, but I can't fault his commitment or effort tonight. I can't say that about many others.

Do you seriously believe in all this spin you spew?
The factors in play you state are all down to mismanagement and surely the buck must stop with the coach.
Marquee signing aside Wires attacking and support play was light years ahead of ours and their defence was solid. I actually enjoyed watching them play but ultimately it comes down to coaching.
Think LR has reached his ceiling.
For all that Tony Smith and Brian Mcdermott won at their respective clubs sentiment played no part in their dismissals.
A change is needed.
Tonight's performance was very reminiscent of Gentle's last game in charge couple that with last season and enough should be enough.

We might not quite have the financial clout of Warrington but we are hardly paupers in RL terms. We spend enough to have the squad we want. We have just made poor decisions.

| Miloudi seems (more often then not) to only get to play in a team beaten even before the kick off.

| Why did LR blame Miloudi ?
He may as well blamed Thompson and the inept forwards
Truth is you Do Not blame the players
When you point one finger there’s always 3 pointing back at yourself
Be a Man Lee - take responsibility and say it’s “me and the coaching team”

I don't disagree that he was the only one, but every chance he's had, he's serving up the same drivel.
From the back, he see's all, and has got to be communicating and organising from there, yet it was a shambles, and to top it off he pulls out of catching the ball. I can't see where his future lies with us.

| It's pointless singling out anybody. It was just pathetic across the board. No energy, no enthusiasm, no commitment.

| Wire fan in peace here! Do any of you think minichello is ready for retirement? Absolute quality player in his day, but he looks finished to me.

Miloudi does not serve up the same drivel and was actually one of our better performers tonight at least he tried.
At the reserves game last Saturday Miloudi ran the show and was constantly talking and organising.
He seems to be some fans and Coaches scape goat.

| His communication from the back was actually ok, numbers were correct in the line, it was inside defenders switching off, players like Thompson having no lateral movement. It was waiting as a defensive line for Warrington to attack us it was grabbing shirts.
Why people are talking about the difference in money spent is beyond me. Tonight wasn't about cash, tonight was about desire, passion, commitment, character, pride and those traits should come for free

I agree, and if he hadn't invested heavily into one of our sponsors, then he wouldn't even be here this year
