Not sure the Whiting at centre and Heremaia tactic in the halves will cut it against the better teams.'"
Correct. I can see Arundal looking for a release. We were never going to lose to Bradford. Can't understand the defensive approach

| I think next week will be a good indication of what Radders has done for our attitude. If we play to our ability, we win, I have no doubts about that. But Cas are a useful team and if we're not on our game then we get beat. This is the kind of game that we have slipped up in far too often in recent seasons.

| I was against his appointment and so far I'm impressed but not convinced. Going forward we are playing the best attacking rugby since John Kear and Peter Sharp were in charge. Defensively we are not as good as under Gentle and I'm really worried about all the penalties we are conceding, particularly for holding down. If we can win the next 3 games which are against teams we really should beat, I'll be a lot more convinced.

The next 3 are must win really. None of them are easy, but they are all games that I would be disappointed to lose. If we then back up three wins by beating Huddersfield, then I will start to get a little excited.

| Gentle was fooking useless but he had most on here cumming in their pants although he had no proven track record to any extent..... He proved it!
What you'll get from Radders is what you see, it may fail, it may succeed.
Let's hope it's the latter for the majority of us who really do give a fook!

I like his interviews. No whining, and some good analogies for a rookie. Liked him talking about Ellis, Feka and Westy (think it was those three) "kicking the door down" so the backs could make their raids. Sounded giddy about the Cas game, as much as a RL fan as head coach of one of the teams involved.

I'm considering marrying you if Mr B doesn't mind a quickie divorce.
Have you any money for away games and overnight hotels?

You're a very bad zebra, besides I'm pushing 50 and the years haven't been kind. Anyway, Mr B won't be divorcing me because I make brilliant cakes. Like FC fans' Mary Berry, me.

The owner of our club obviously thought so that's why he paid him off and sent him packing back down under (I said. ''Do you speak-a my language?'' ).
I trust Radders will get the same treatment if he's not up to the task.
That'd suit you, wouldn't it?

Why is it Crazy to expect Radders to be treated different to any other coach if he isn't upto the job.
Gentle's main problem was the players down under are able to play to different game plans most of the players in Superleague find it difficult to play to 5 runs and a kick at times.
Personally think with Gentle our loss is someone else's gain, he's obviously well regarded down under.
Until we manage to find a coach that can manage to get the players to play the full 80 mins consistently I personally wont be happy and neither should anyone else. and NO i don't think Radders is that coach imo

I was intimating more along the lines that certain posters on here wouldn't lose too much sleep if he did fail.
In fact, they'd probably sleep more easily if that were to transpire.

| Gentle was another coach who is a great assistant but not a great head coach.
Gentle recruitment was very poor and the reason he didn't succeed.
Jurys out on Radford still, but made a very positive start.

| Radders is doing pretty well so far. In the same way it would have been idiotic to denounce his appointment before he'd coached a game it would be equally silly to laud his appointment after 4 games. It'll be 12 months at least before any firm judgement on his ability as a SL coach can be better assessed.
