RL is for much of it a stop start game, using that as an excuse for indisciplined, unorganised and at times schoolboy level of ball handling and decision making is ridiculous.
I said that I recognised that Cats were allowed for the most part to slow the PTB down however to then go on to blame the ball boys for the ball not being ready as if some sort of plot that then aided turning professional sportsmen into a championship standard rabble is frankly nonsense.
that he mentioned it at all shows he is desperate and under pressure.

Instead of making nonsense statements, listen to the interview he didn't blame the ball boys for the defeat, but was rightly frustrated for the constant delaying tactics from them.

Once again we dominated, more metres from less runs, more tackle busts, offloads and clean breaks. 17 errors (8 from our half backs) and too many pens (at crucial times) has cost us the game.

Pretty much the story of our season.

Don't think you can blame Radford, but somehow he has to try and get our confidence back.

as a neutral i thought it was a good game to watch. lots of passion and commitment and spicy, Bird was the difference, horrible git but still some player

Deserved to win in my opinion. Tough times and the usual suspects predictably show their pathetic weakness on social media. If you take out a few of your best players you won't do as well. Hopefully the players and staff are made of sterner stuff. Most fans are superb - the effort by all those to get out there and support the side was fantastic.

Was an incredible following, not for the first time. Anyone know how many travelled?

Must admit I would love to sign Bird to replace Ellis but as he signed a long contract at Catalans I doubt it could happen.

I presume you have some first hand information about Bird. It's so easy to dish out personal insults from the anonymity of a forum. Do you actually even know what a git is?

Not sure he is a Saint off the filed either, I'd love him at Hull though.
