Realistically the guy was done 2 years ago so god knows how he is going to perform given his last competative game was 7 months ago, its not as if he was known for his superior fitness.
I thought the rumoured Pitts loan was going to be our annual stupid decision but wow this has stepped it up to a whole new level.
I'm also 100% sure that if it wasnt a derby on Friday he still would have done this

| Full credit to Radders, one thing you have to say about him is that he's got bottle, the kind of guy i'd want on my side everyday of the week.

| Radders had a good game today but I think the other players played well enough to show it wasn't entirely necessary to bring him back. Having said that he had a good game so fair play to him.

Really who would you have picked instead, Radford had a massive influence on the game today especially in the first half.

Thought he played very well. Ran strongly, tackled hard and got over the line.

| Loved it when he encouraged the south stand to make some noise, I thought it makes a change from the two fingers...
Love Radders me

I'd have just asked Pitts and Bowden to do more minutes with Aspinwall/Tickle doing some additional prop cover. To suggest Radford has massive influence is just plain wrong IMO. Lynch was the best prop on the pitch by a country mile. As I said he had a good game but the others forwards proved we could have coped without him.

| I think radders was used effectively. 10 minutes at the start to take the steam out of rovers pack. 10 minutes either side of half time and he had done enough. Well managed by Gentle to get the best use out of him.

Of course Lynch was our best prop he is ever week.
To say he didn't have an influence when he had a lot to do to score our first try when we looked in trouble, in we had gone in 6-0 down then who knows what would have happened, anyone who has played rugby knows what a try before HT does for confidence.
We aren't going to agree as I think you and your mate HF have something against Radford.
Luckily Gentle, who I have much more faith and you and other supports picks the team.
Great decision from Gentle.

| You could see radders was blowing but he was able to concentrate his efforts into short bursts. Must have been helpful to the younger lads to have his experience out there today .

| Radford was there to help steady the ship and provide some leadership and direction for the young lads like Bowden and Pitts. I seem to remember Radders was on the pitch when Lynch was off taking a breather so that there was always a pack leader on the pitch.
Turned out that Radders did much, much more than we all expected and all credit to him.
Once again clever rotation from Gentle today. So far this this season he's used his bench brilliantly and this has most certainly helped us win the last two games for sure.

I never said he didn't have an influence I just questioned your claim that he had a "massive" influence. Someone like Lynch had a massive influence. I've already said Radford had a good game but IMO the other forwards proved we could have managed without him having to come out of retirement. You can claim its just some sort of agenda all you want if you'd rather though.

| IMO Radders was needed today to fire up the team and get into the Rovers line. The first drive of the game was Radders who sent a dobbins player tumbling to the ground. He showed great strength to score his try as well. I hope he plays on Monday because he is needed until we can get Moa, O'Carroll and O'Meley back in the squad.

| Radford had an impact on the players with his first hit up, he was used effectively and stopped our younger props from being over exposed. He's finished in terms of being a day in day out player, but over this Easter given our injuries he's a very good option to have.

Sums it up for me Radders did the job Gentle asked him to brilliantly today it was his experience that he put out there for and just proves that Gentle is a great coach but also seems to be very good at manmanagement and getting the best out of everyone.
