I didn't think we that bad first half, did some really good things, but just silly mistakes and ill discipline let us down, they only made one mistake first half and scored some excellent trys.
Agree with you on whiting, being saying all season he should be in the 17, that preformance puts him ahead of the likes of Sa, Hadley and Thomspon for a bench spot.

We've had worse halves but we just looked really flat in attack and our defence looked a lot less solid than normal, did a lot of scrambling. Can't complain too much when we won though.

| Quote ="knockersbumpMKII"I get absolutely no satisfaction at all when we lose, i fecking hate it as much as the next fan. I'm frustrated because you see the same errors time and again, not just player errors but stuff like misuse of the squad, misuse of the bench, player disharmony, utter failure on the field like they've come out with completely the wrong mindset, all of which the coach is in charge of.
I've given praise every time we've played well and likewise I've voiced my opinion when we haven't, that's being the case far more than the former the last 2 seasons, if that comes across as 'complaining' then that's totally misunderstood. Rightful criticism of how we are playing, how we are coached and what is going on in the background at the club. If people can't differentiate that's their problem not mine.
As I said there are plenty of things going on in the background that isn't down to LR (though it appears he has influence in certain areas) that are just beyond a joke.
I find our incredibly poor form over the last 2 seasons under Radford sickening, I find AP to be doing as much damage as he does good, if not more so.
So when you have posters on here going into one swearing at you, calling you names, deliberately baiting because you voice an opinion one reacts. You yourself are guilty of it albeit not as bad as some clowns.
As far as I'm concerned LR has outstayed his welcome, he's not good enough now, he'll never be good enough his attitude stinks, he is unable to take criticism and/or accept that the buck stops with him, I find him to generally be an unsavoury character with his bully boy tactics with the younger players that's my opinion based on what's happened nothing more.
So when you have posters stating that he (LR) has outcoached (the god) Powell and given that particular posters taste for a bit of brown nosing amongst others on this forum whom can barely acknowledge if at all Radfords failings one feels obliged to point out the error in their thinking.
I do it objectively from what I see on the terrace and how he handles matters, or rather doesn't.
It comes across as ridiculous that where we are now compared to the upward trend under PG as being acceptable, a couple of great performances & a few good ones apparently is enough to slake certain fans. I'm not one of them and I'm prepared to vent my feelings'"
These bully boy claims are obviously facts.

| At halftime I was ready to call it a day and settle for playing Fev, Halifax etc after what I thought was an abysmal 40 minutes. The second half, although we went hell for leather, still had the same old same old about it. No dummy runners and the inside ball drop off getting us nowhere. Not a real lot to get euphoric over, imo, yet we showed plenty of glimpses of what we are capable of. We need more of them `glimpses` to really threaten and frighten the others in the top 8. The big plus for me was the effort put in by our young guns. It seemed that they had said `Sod the play book let us do it our way` and it worked, in the end. Massive massive confidence boost for the Derby and hopefully the playoffs.

But nobody is talking about the quality of the teams. The poster said "a great result". [size=150RESULT[/size, did you get that.

| Cas are very useless, there wins against Leeds and Saints were very lucky.
You would know how good or bad we were if you actually bothered to attend.
This was an excellent result, especially as had our 3 best players from this season out.

Guess the other 3 wins were all luck too right? Guess being level on points with the Giants and tied for 4th on points difference is all luck too right?
That was one of our worst performances of the season, still at least we're not as bad as you right? (See we can all be bitchy)

That went right over your head, but I suppose you have to be a Hull fan and understand Standee to get it.
Cas are very good side, who are well coached and play some good rugby, they deserve to be were they are.

This. And I certainly feared the worst at half time yesterday. Cas were well on top in that first half IMO and deserved to be in front. Some of the rugby they displayed was a joy to watch.
Makes our second half performance all the sweeter. Yesterday really was "a game of two halves".

Based on his radio interview alone when responding to the question about Shaul & to a lesser degree Lineham it's pretty obvious how he operates, those are not the only instances. There is more than one type of bully but from your short response I presume you wouldn't understand.

That's rubbish, maybe the first half, but the 2nd we were good going forward, kept them scoreless for 37 minutes and were very dominate without 3 of our best players. We had two try's disallowed, bombed one and held up over the line twice, so we created more chances, they had more sets then us so to win with the team we had out is an excellent win and good performance. It wasn't perfect, but to say the only positive was the two points us ridiculous.

I bet you were bullied.Is it your suggestion then that our senior players including Ellis,Pryce and Mini are happy to allow this to carry on under their noses?

What type of bully is Radford?
What specifically has he done to Shaul and/or Lineham?
Have you any other evidence other than a radio interview of this bullying?

TBH if bullying is going on in the club then it's up to those at the top to stamp it out.
Someone last week said that they'd exchanged emails with AP and he'd basically told them where to go.
Now obviously it's one word against another but if that's the attitude at the top what example does it set to the rest of the club?

criticising a player in public could be seen as bullying

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't LR come out and said he'd "slap" players in interviews. That's either a joke in poor taste or outright bullying.
