11 carries is decent workrate for a big impact prop. 5 metres per carry on the other hand is pathetic for a big impact prop.
Other stats I noticed were that Houghton and Westerman made 82 tackles between them without missing any. Quinlan missed 7. How on earth does a FB even get the opportunity to miss 7 tackles? Miloudi made 4 tackle busts in his limited time on the pitch. In his 3 games he has now made 28 carries and 24 tackle busts. He doesnt look much, but defenders really struggle with him.

people saying this season is a transition season is a complete nonsense, we've gone backwards and the reasons are clear as day, don't mention injuries, all clubs get them and all clubs get them just as bad as we have. we showed Sunday that despite a long list of injuries we have classy and capable players even down to the junior squad members who did not look out of place at all, yet again proving they will do the job IF given the chance, but time and again Radford stunts their progress, it takes injuries for him to really give them a shout.
I guess some/most fans are happy with the odd CC win and getting to the play-offs.'"
You should start a petition...

Miloudi just looks to me like a carbon copy of Connor. Play a bit of the cuff, strong runner, and likes to have a bit of a laugh and a joke while playing (at the expense of the opposition).
Think having them 2 on the pitch at the same time (Connor in halves, Miloudi in centre (for now)) would be a joy to watch.

| People gave advice a while back to ignore knockers (Which I more or less do) as all he goes is say the same thing over and over again and once he is beat (which is often) he ignores the post.
For whatever reason he hates Radford and will never give him credit, he doesn't understand Radford had to take us backwards to go forwards after the mess Gentle got us in.
I'd suggest if we all ignore him, he might go away. I certainly won't miss his repeated anti Radford rants.

Great idea Dave. Why don't we start a petition to encourage everyone to ignore him.

Stats are always misleading the thing is Mose was running at your forwards whereas Paea was running at ours there's a big difference Jake

| I don't mind Masoe. With the right conditioning that allowed him to do more than 11 minutes and used wider he could do a job off our bench IMO.

He won't go away as he believes the shoite he posts. Personally, I reckon radders used to nick his dinner money at school

masoe is rubbish. Sheens would be better putting him on a diet of burgers, fries and milkshakes for a few months and playing in short spells off the bench. Currently he has neither the size to make any real impact or the fitness to do do lengthy stints and make a lot of carries and tackles. I'd honestly rather have brad fash in our team than masoe

because Radford/the team make the exact same errors time and again, you yourself touched on that in your assessment of the game.
Like the 'advice', I've tried to ignore childish and abusive posts by not responding.
I've given LR plenty of credit, so you're a liar, I don't hate Radford I think he's gone as far as he can with his limited abilities, won't accept his limitations nor inability to address the same issues that crop up without help from elsewhere. PG was a better coach IMHO.

| Radders has a philosophy in his coaching, big bad & dominant, we play this way, his teams are molded this way, his recruiting is based on this, it’s a simple method, and after two successful Challenge Cup campaigns “yes yes two of them” we were undone in two Play off semis, both of them Wigan & Leeds nail biters, and with a little luck both winnable. We are in a mess at present with injuries, and of course the team makes errors and mistakes, all teams do, sorry bumpy, credit were it’s due, our young coach has done a super job for us all, you are entitled to your opinions, I respect this, and if people are so incensed by them, there is an option to ignore, come on you ull.

| Quote ="knockersbumpMKII"PG was a better coach IMHO.'"
Peter was a nice guy, we all wanted him to succeed, he tried his best but wasn’t good enough at the end of the day. He built a ‘small’ squad and we ended up getting bullied plus he left us in a right state salary cap wise.
Singed bang average players on massive wages: Miller crookes, Pitts, arundel, holdsworth. His first off season signings were terrible.
We got the odd win against the likes of Leeds and Wigan but we we’re nothing special. We never looked like seriously challenging for either trophy.
Yeah he got us to Wembley, but we we’re never going to win in a million years.
It took Radford a good 2 years to sort out the deadwood and hammer home his ethos. 2014 and 15 were tough, I wanted him to go. It hadn’t been that long since the dross served up in the Agar era, and no one wanted to go through that again.
Then look at his recruitment for 2016 with a bit of spare cap space after he got rid of the average Gentle players. Pritchard, Manu, Taylor, Fonua, Tuimavave. Slowly but surely he turned us around.
Since then we’ve had 2 top 3 finishes and 2 challenge cups
We’re modelled on the successful Bradford team that Radford played in. Is it glamorous? Not really. Does it get results? Seems so.
He’s now developing and bringing the local players through nicely. Some of them may have made their debut under Gentle but the development of the likes of Masi, Green, Bowden, Shaul have improved no end.
The club has gone from strength to strength each year Radford has been in charge. He’s a winner. Gentle is a nice guy.

Don’t get me wrong, I would like Budgie from the pies, or Tom Johnstone from Wakey, but it’s a fine balance, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
As for the Loiners surely a great team in decline

To be fair, wasn't it Dane Tilse who managed a whole 47 meters in the "20 nil up" game...
55 meters is a positive for rovers

Didn't you say Radford had taken us as far as he could before he coached us to 2 Wembley wins?

Wigan's backline is pretty rapid, but man for man I doubt our 1-7 lacks pace compared to the other 3. Cas certainly don't have many speedsters.
