playing briscoe centre was a poor selection, as his defencive thinking and reading was poor with him not playing their, sharp outside and longy were poor, why no washbrook, he can change our attack with his support play and good line runs but agar opted for 3 props and a secondrower in which all were on for a short period of time,, as for dowes why the hell did we re sign him, my 12 years old has more leg drive than him.

i agree but many on here have been asking for this to happen....

Its deeper than that. The whole feckin squad selection and recruitment is wrong. But thats a boring subject now that our super coach has known and spoken about for months and months. Its been our priority for years now but still we have failed to do anything about it, other than to sign yet another backrower with an alleged drink / attitude problem.

And then moan when it doesn't work out ... damned if you do .....

Seems Agar tried too desperately to get Radford into the team.



Our props should be Fitz, O'Meley, Moa and Lauaki, Dowes should be nowhere near our 17.

He should be nowhere near Super League.

I thought Radford started the game well.

though radford was good but dowesy was poor

Intensity visibly dropped when he went off, put it that way.

radford had a decent game, dowes

I did too, but it doesn't justify the imbalance in the squad that was created to shoe-horn him and Dowes into it IMO

Dowes should be nowhere near the 17. Fitzgibbon should be in the back or front row, Westerman at 13.



Agar needs to sort out the pack rotation, it's a complete joke.



In the backs, not a lot he could do, practically picks itself. But when Phelps is here, Briscoe should go back to the wing, and Whiting into the centres.
