| Sa was gash.
Overall like most of the rest of this season, lots of effort, a few bits of skill, some sloppy defending, too many cheap penalties, and a defeat.
On we go....

Great going forward, but we've all seen and particularly this season, how poor his defence is.
As for the breakaway by Carney, surely it was Sa who should have gone for the ball. But no he just watched and made no effort to chase back. Ultimately that play summed up how poor the right hand side were.
Despite how soft Shenton's tries were, i wish we had him.
can anyone shine any light on why you name Yeaman/a centre on the bench, to spell with Logan, who yet again played well.
Another game and yet the same question: What is the logic with our interchanges?!?
The club's problem is not the coaches though, it's the lack of playing shirts/training tops we've released.
Hopefully we'll address this next season and have a different one for every game.

| Is it just me, or did anyone else feel...
That during the second half which sort hung in the balance for a while, that it would be Cas that came out on top? I sat and watched with my son, he's 14 and even he said Cas will go on and win this when both teams were exchanging sets.
Someone mentioned game management earlier and I think it's a good point.
Maybe it's juts paranoia as so used to getting beat, but I just felt FC didn't have the game to come out of that spell and push on and win it.
It's very frustrating.

Logan got a sternum injury and came back on despite that after Yeaman was injured. So no spelling.

| Some of the defending on those kicks was pitiful, really poor organisation on not only defending a kick, but our offensive kicks as well. No one seems to have a clue what's happening

| Some diabolical errors tonight. Story of the season. Score a couple, cue on the rack, errors. Sa and Lineham particularly prolific. Meh.

| Just got back. Dissapointing to say the least yet not suprised one bit. 22 points gift wrapped from Lineham, sa and rankin. Lineham and sa were shocking but like the poster above said, rankin wasnt great either, from what I saw at the game he cost us 2 tries.
Shaul must be wondering what he has to do to get a game, two games running rankin has been poor
For saints I'd drop rankin for shaul, move whiting to centre for sa and Naughton in for lineham

Ah fair enough, didnt know that. Credit to Logan for playing through.
Radford must have known and hence why Yeaman was actually on the bench.

| We all know Adam is short of cash and looking for investors but he has 1 throw of the dice left.
Geoff Toovey...Manly have just beaten Broncos and Bunnies. He's been fired.
I have no idea at all if this has legs but as Toovey was at Manly for 20+ years he may not fancy another NRL club for a season.
He's a GREAT coach and if AP had the cash maybe just maybe he might come. Long shot I suppose.
He would be our Saviour and that's not debatable.
Radford is not fit for purpose and this match shows why for the 20th+ time.
Wigan 2 weeks ago was the straw for me, again ad infinitum

Whiting got run around 2 or 3 times tonight playing second row. Pretty sure his centre days are well behind him. That said, he'd still be an upgrade on Sa judging by tonight's performance.

| I thought that the majority of the team did well and was let down by errors and really poor defence by a few players.
Sa was pathetic absolutely no effort in defence or dealing with kicks, he has been our worst player second half on the season and Radford shouldn't have picked him. Disappointed with Lineham and Rankin also, crucial errors which cost us, these 3 and possible whiting should be dropped for the next game.
Disappointing team selection and substitutions (although could have been down to injuries) again.
Playing for 6th now.

| Didn't go but from what I saw on Sky some dreadful errors. Really can't see what we are gaining from playing Lineham, Rankin, Sa. Surely we need to be building for 2016 now?

| Gollums interview with Radford was priceless! Radford thinks next season will be the time to judge him, when hes got HIS team, blames previous regime for past 2 seasons, I actually think he believes hes turned things around from the Gentle era! The blokes cookoo . Made some good signings for next season, but will still be as bad in my opinion

| Very interested to see if Shaul gets picked next week. Much as I like Rankin he had a mare and the sort of game that usually warrants instant dropping by Radford.

| I think its time for a change at full back. Rankin has had a good run but lets give Shaul a go against Saints. He had a good game there at Easter.

The bloke's a fruitcake. It is HIS team!
There are only about 3 players left of Gentle signings (Watts, Thompson,& Paea irc) & they have been among our best IMO - or is he binning Watts & Thompson?

What a difference two years can make!
On a more serious note, whilst I don't think Radford's up to the job I'm not sure a change of coach would fix things. Certainly not straight away, if at all. The players will still make the errors they do, our heads will still drop in games, we won't be in the right frame of mind for certain games etc. Radford said it himself the other week by pointing out we're mentally fragile and it's certainly been an issue for longer that his tenure.
