Abdull is nowhere near ready to play 13 consistently.


Neither is Westerman. Wonder which one offers value for money?

westerman is a strange one, imo he does a lot of work for the team but never seems to stand out, would be sorry to see him go but not suprised

The issue as far as I can see with Westerman is that we paid a fee for him. I suspect if he had come to us in the usual way simply signing after contract ended at Cas then we wouldn't be expecting so much from him.

I'm not sure what we expect from him. Last season Radford seemed to allow him to play a more open role. This year with Pryce and Sneyd at the helm it appears to me that he has had to revert back to being a third prop at times. Thus redering him ineffective. Or at least not as effective as his skill set allows.

Add in an absolute mare in our biggest game of the season and I can see why some might be glad to see him go.

As for Abdul hes old enough hes big enough I'd expect him in the 17 most weeks next season. He needs a massive off season losing some of his muffin top, but he will either be rotting in the frankinstein team or at a DR club. Get him in the first team and developing off Mini and co.

Don't blame Naughton for not signing as he will just get used and deserves a FT spot in the team. He won't get that with LR and I think he knows that. Can't see him much longer at the club. He's just been wasted

I'm not sure naughton will ever make it as a winger. Too small. Reckon FB could be his best position

Most teams only play one full back at once. Do you think Radford is wrong?

Faultless logic. I hope we manage to tie down England and Great Britain international Kirk Yeaman to a long contract!

Now can you really see LR not giving him another year at the club unless he decides to retire!
