Not before the season had even started though.

Stupid is putting it mildly. Ian Watson at 16/1!! The only way he’s leaving Salford is to take another post. Agar at 5/1, the Godfather has waited years to get him cosy at Leeds.
Radford’s going nowhere, we’re on for the treble

" I have no pre-conceived ideas as to who our best player is, I will pick the best player for each position on merit and form, the 'best' player will undoubtedly change from game to game. You don't win games with one best player, you win with a consistent side, playing well as a team"

| I know, cant believe he doesn't know if the centre or winger Fonua will play centre or winger before he has seen most of his squad play a game. He should be sacked

| Fonua is a centre
Simple as that
He wants to play centre
He was at his best as centre for FC
How hard is that ?

Yes, he WAS, compared to the options, NEWSFLASH, we hve signed players that, in some games, may be better suited in the centres.. that is why Lee is a SL coach. IF he makes the wrong choicees consistently, judge him then, not based on your personal opi ion. I personally don't rate Griffin, but he keeps proving me wrong.

If you had watched him more you would have seen he was excellent in both positions. We have some great wingers and , so ge should play where he is best suited and I dont blame Lee for not 100% knowing which position he will play.

| ... there are at least 8 players vying for 4 positions in the threequarters, no coach in his right mind would start announcing in public who is playing where, especially with 3 weeks and two friendlies still to play.

| People who think Mahe is a winger are the same
Self appointed RL gurus who also think Jake Connor should go to FB
I will bet $1000 that Mahe starts at centre at Leeds

Self appointed gurus
You coached Skirlaugh under 9's and think you are know more than the double challenge cup winning coach.
Maybe just maybe Radford is keeping his starting team close to his chest for obvious reasons that most people with half a brain can understand.

Well I think that Fonua should play centre and that Connor should play FB. So there.
Fonua has had two seasons in the SL. One primarily as a centre and one primarily as a winger and he made the dream team both times. You can't just say he is x position and that's that. We have lots of three quarter options. You have to look at what is the best balance overall and which centre/wing partnerships work best together. If I was naming a team right now then I would put him at centre, but I haven't seen what has been happening at training.
I'm far from being Radford's biggest fan, but it's just ignorant to think you know more about a player than the guy who sees him day in day out.

Isn’t the whole reason for Forums so we can do just that ?
We are all armchair coaches with a myriad of strong opinions !
I watched a fair bit of Fonua in NRL and against Storm he was a beast for 80mins. He would be totally wasted on the wing as he has no foul man other than the touch line.
For me he’s a centre - he can use his winger to hold the defensive winger leaving him a 1 on 1
Fonua in a 1 on 1 10 metres out at pace
It’s a beautiful thing
I’m very very excited about Mahe
