Says you maybe. I think Radford's right and if fit Horne will be back next week. According to the radio commentary every other pass Miller did forced the receiver to stop and slowed everything down. Hardly a trait of a top half.

Different game to the one I watched

Rankin all day long along side miller with Horne in the centre

radio commentary?.wallies on their haven't a clue.

Your right if it was Humberside with Lee"red and white"Richardson summarising

Richardson was right,both halfs were average at best and we lacked cohesion.

cant fault the attack.36 points against super league opposition was good going.defence was what let them down.

It would be a really bold decision by Radford and it's one that he won't make. But given that we aren't good enough to win anything, yet nowhere near relegation, I would like to see him bite the bullet and give HTW and /or Reece Dean a crack. They are the future of the club, and I for one would happily sacrifice a playoff spot to bring them on. Look how Saints are benefitting from being forced into playing all the youngsters last year.

Based on their styles I think Rankin at 6 and HTW at 7 could be a really exciting partnership. From what I've seen of Wilson he would easily hold his own, even at his young age, and if he struggles and we find out he's not ready, then what have we lost?

HTW is 17!

And how old was Horney when he played his first competitive games ?

The main criticism of Miller by the commentary team was his lack of taking the ball to the line and not engaging defenders. A valid observation i think.

Did to a degree but he was going across the face of play holding the defenders up and letting the forward come straight. I read that as forwards not quite been in tune with him yet. Few times he put the man into half a gap which allowed more yards, or went wider.
For me his kicking game wasn't bad at all. Not flawless but still in excess of what we've seen in recent years barring holdsworth.
Thought Miller was more of a man of the match this week than he was last.
plus radio baffle me sometimes. Mainly Richardson to be fair,he said paea looked jaded?!?! Where as I thought he looked tremendous and didn't deserve to be on the losing side

Problem with 2 inexperienced halfs is that we'll get more poor games than good ones. We just can't afford to sit back and let the season implode while we see if miller and rankin have what it takes. Half back recruitment has again been shat leaving us with an injury prone, ageing horne and 2 kids with barely half a season in 1st grade between them

think miller will get better with more game time, same as rankin, i really hope that there get there chance,

If we don't give these two a chance we will never know if they are good enough to make us challenges and then once again, we have to try and sign a halfback, they should be given the next 5 games and see how they go.

Horne to come in at to replace Yeaman.

hope your right dave

Happy with this, maybe give Horne an extra couple of weeks recovery also

That was 15 years ago, the games changed.

Not that much.. (and ours certainly hasn't!)

If we leave it too long people will be complaining he's too old...

How long do we give them? At what point do we cut our losses and start to look again?

how long do you give any new signings ?

Depends how good they were pre signing and how critical their position is to the team.

If they'd have been used properly in pre season we might have a better idea by now if they are the answer.

well i would say more than 1 match , maybe 6 or 7 to at least give them a go, maybe longer, we have to at least give them a go imo

Strange that that's the criteria given the two halves in question.
