Who is in Radford's 16 and who would be your 17th man?

I believe his 16 are

Shaul
Michaels
Fonua
Yeaman
Talanoa
Carlos
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Watts
Manu
Mini
Ellis

Frank
Washy
Green - a month ago I'd have said Bowden but think Greeny has been better last month or so

Which leaves 1 from Thompson, Bowden and Hadley. I would go for Deano based on last couple of weeks think he has played his way in

COYH

i think its 2 from green, bowden, hadley and thompson, your 13 is correct and frank and washy are certain

That's what I mean the 1st 15 are nailed on but Radders says 16 are? As you say could make a case for any 2 from them 4

Reckon Bowden takes the last spot, Wire have a sizeable pack and we'll need the extra thoroughbred prop IMO.

Like to see Bowden.Green Pritchard on the bench with Washbrook,Thompson and Hadley in line for the fourth spot.
Its difficult as Washbrook has done little wrong but Thompsons pace offers something different and Hadley is solid both in defence and attack

Bowden on the bench for me with Pritchard and Washbrook.

Final spot is a very tough call, on current form I might edge towards Hadley.

I'd go with two props on the bench so that's Bowden and Green, big Frank, so for me it between Washy and Hadley, Tomo has been poor the last few weeks, including really poor go forward stats last night.

Washy has been good this year and offers great utility, so I think he will get it, Hadley very unlucky as he has done well everytime he has played and done really well the last two games.

I agree Bowden has the size but Hadley runs better lines when attacking more questions of the defence.

Bench should be

Bowden
Green
Pritchard
Washbrook

Very tough on Hadley and tommo but there's more big games to come yet this season

Also think that will be the bench,

Me too,we need Washy's versatility 100% and 3 big fella's.

^^THIS^^

For me Green seems to have stepped it up performance wise of late and Bowden who after a good start seemed to lose a little form but he also seems to have come back to the form he showed at the start of he season. Would eb very surprised if both Bowden & Green are not on the bench.
Think Washy will edge out both Hadley & Thompson though I think Hadley is in with a great shout and is very close to call. Just think if we go with 3 of Pritchard, Green & Bowden then Washy is in on his versatility and experience which will just pip Hadley to the 17th spot.

I agree Bowden.Green,Pritchard and Washbrook.Think this is what Radford will go for subject to injuries with Dean Hadley 18th man

This will be a fight in the forwards and we need the brute strength over the line running. Frank already covers the back row spot.

Changed my mind since this morning. Tough gig this coaching lark

I think Bowden, Green, Washbrook, Pritchard is the way to go.

Tough on the other squad members such as Thompson, Hadley, Abdull, Naughton and Pryce. All will get a chance in the weeks after Wembley to stake a claim for a play off and hopefully a Grand Final place.
