I did too, but it doesn't justify the imbalance in the squad that was created to shoe-horn him and Dowes into it IMO

Dowes should be nowhere near the 17. Fitzgibbon should be in the back or front row, Westerman at 13.

Agar needs to sort out the pack rotation, it's a complete joke.

In the backs, not a lot he could do, practically picks itself. But when Phelps is here, Briscoe should go back to the wing, and Whiting into the centres.

Lots of unemployed coaches on this board

But that's a different point then. He tried to shoehorn Dowes into the side, yes. Radford justified his place.

Did Radford come back on?

Don't think so. He wasn't needed, Fitzgibbon was fresh as a daisy.

Radford over Dowes everytime, as for Briscoe most fans were begging for him to be played at centre.

Definatley Radders, looked good today.

All the Briscoe at centre crew have gone hiding or are saying "he will get better in the position".

How many times do we have to have the same conversations about team selections? Agar seems to pick his team based on which senior players happen to be fit and how he can somehow shoehorn them into the team.

Radford hadn't played in preseason, yet is selected to start, then lasts 20 mins max and doesn't come back. Why?
