And in what way did our [iteam[/i show Widnes no respect today?

Just a lazy cliche mate he must fancy a job on Sky.

I think the fact that it was only Widnes shows why our fans & coach are so angry.

Be honest with you I wasn't there. But I've seen time and time again players turn up looking like they've not prepared for us at all thinking we'll be a pushover. I've seen teams rest players against us, and they don't realise we're not an easy 2 points. Don't know whether that was the case today, I was reacting to this embarrassing original post and some of the obnoxious replies.

Thought they must have done.

We didn't rest anyone. All players missing were either injured or suspended.

We've put this kind of performance in against all sorts of sides on a semi-regular basis for the last several years. It was one of the things specifically targeted by Radford when he came in, which is why he's so angry tonight. It had nothing to do with it being Widnes.

Fair enough. We were just better on the day then.

You played the conditions better than us and defended well. In overall play over 80 minutes I thought we shaded it, but were so diabolical in execution, bombing several clear-cut chances, that we got exactly what we deserved from the game. You guys did what you needed to, which wasn't much. A good 2 points for you, an attacking shambles for us.

Agree with that, the only time they looked like scoring was when rankin lost the bal

Pretty decent defensively though conceeding only 7 pts.

It helps when the opposition throw the ball into touch with the tryline begging. Multiple times.

radford's going to get at least a full season regardless of what we think of him, so we might as well back the team. i don't think he should have got the job but as standee said, superleague can't attract top class coaches any more as the standards are poor at the moment. superleague is nowhere near where it was 6 or 7 seasons ago
