excuses, excuses.

Interesting point at the end with regards to recruitment. Pearson said we are after a second rower and a centre. The last interview he gave he said we was after a prop. I guess Scott Taylor isn't happening now then?

Load of e! Wonder if Radford has some pictures of him in a compromising position! Agar situation all over again!

Shaul,Lineham,Crooks,Green,Bowden all brought in a by a coach who didnt have the understanding of bringing in young players.

I thought he handled the interview well.

I like the strategy of development of the youth system and the fundamentals.

Some of the interview felt like excuses, but to be honest I found it difficult to argue which much he said.

I can't decide that if next year there will be many on here eating humble pie, and it will turn out his strategy for the long term future of the club is bob on, or if it will go from bad to worst.

Resolute that Radders is staying so were gonna have months of whining on here.
The joy.

He knows he was had over by Bomber and Gentle in the recruitment stakes.
Nothing we didn't already know.

Lineham going nowhere.
Crooks possibly me thinks.

I liked it. I'm 50/50 if I renew my pass or not. This may have swung it slightly more towards a purchase.

Adam seems to have forgotten what he said at the beginning of the season about the current squad,yet now the big clearout is mostly responsible for the position the club is in.
To say Aussie coaches don't have the understanding or bravery to play young players WHAT!
It was Peter Gentle who gave both Shaul and Hadley their debuts.
Then say signings have been better under Lee.
Tuson,Colbon,Carvell and the jury is still out on Sa.
Pearson said Yeaman has had a good season ????
Mentioned Ben Crooks but not positively so wouldn't surprise me if he does leave end of the season particularly as it seems we are looking at a centre and second row from Australia.
Rankin mentioned so will be staying but nothing about Miller so he will be on his way out.

Second Rower and Centre from Oz.

Or he's not mentioning recruiting a prop because we've already got taylor but he doesn't want to announce until end of season

load of excuses i'm afraid!

'the inbalanced fixture list hasn't helped us' surely playing a load of home games early on should have meant we started well and kicked on from there!

'Overseas coaches can't develop local players' funny how McGuire laid down the foundations for Wigan's success utilising young talent like Tomkins (both of them) Charnley etc

then he moves on to talk about having too many 'squad players' yet we went and bought the likes of Carvell, Colborn & Sa this season??

If Kath or Rule were coming out with stuff like that they'd be slaughtered!

no pass for me next year if this is the grand 'plan' for the future.

i'm happy we've been told something about crooksy.

If Crooks leaves Hull it'll turn out to be a huge mistake. Wonder if the rumours of Pritchard coming really are true? Although I'm at work so haven't had chance to listen to the interview yet.

I've always said rugby is the M62 corridor as AP stated in his interview, the RFL have always pumped money into the wrong areas, instead of any spre cash going into grass roots or SL clubs youth structures.

Thought the interview largely OK. Disagreed with his point about the fielding of younger players but maybe that was a reference to stuff going on that we weren't aware of. Liked the fact that he's acutely aware of the emotional rollercoaster fans have been on in the last few seasons and how much of an ask it is for them to put their hands in their pockets again for next season.

On the player side, Miller is clearly gone and Rankin staying. Lineham here for the foreseeable and Crooks until the end of his current contract at least. He actually only said that Yeaman had been playing well in the last few games, not the whole season. With that and the question marks over Sa and Crooks it's not surprising we have another centre in our sights.

No real surprises, confirmation that he's in it for the long haul and Radford will be coach next season at least, and a self-confessed plea to stick with it for one more season at least.

I also think it will be a big mistake to let Crooks leave.Radford definitely to blame for that one.
Cant be Pritchard as he mentioned a centre and second row although I think we do need a big prop.
Scott Taylor just a plodder so wont be disappointed not to see him at the KC

Well I said after the Ask Adam interview a few weeks ago that I would renew my pass for Adam' s sake and I will stick to that. After watching this latest interview I am at a loss to see why he has so much confidence in Radford, so if next season is the same as this one I will pick and choose my games the season after next

jury still out for me


definately a case of more jam tomorrow!

agree with some about bringing the youngsters through, Gentle wasn't afraid too so he has got that one wrong!

the halfback signings for next season im happy with, its our gameplan that worries me, we dont seem to have one or it is far too easy to read!

looks like no taylor signing (kid must've been mental to consider leaving wigan!)

miller is as good as gone, crooks, hopefully he will be here next season but i have this sneaky feeling he wont be, probably wait until passholders have all re-newed or the ones that are before announcing his departure!

1. Pritchard is a second row so what are u talking about?

2.

Pritchard is a back rower

AP said we are recruiting a back rower & a centre.

We're so deep into the season that jam today would be a waste, but if we can see the start of the fruit growing in the next few games I'm happy with jam tomorrow

I guess we've seen more youngsters this season for reasons we haven't been (and don't need to be) told, but PG did that too, so I'm not sure what AP means.

Going to get behind Radders and the team, with the hope that they start realising what this all means to the fans and start performing

I gathered that but Frank Pritchard is a second row he isn't a prop and he would be one massive signing if it is him, also Hull Kr believe they have signed Thornley so maybe it is a hull team just not KR.

Been at the crack pipe again?
