Whats up with Shiels and Montanella?

Is Shiels long term injured?

I see Joel Hodgson and Ben Morris have gone to Rotherham on duel registration for the rest of the season.

At least they'll both play regularly.

Good move for them, hopefully the link with Rotherham will help us get their Arg centre.

So Dean Richards is now bemoaning "all the retirements " this season as another reason for the tough season.

No Dean...if you had stuck with a regular team instead of changing it all every game...and played the best players then we'd have done better.

Playing Vickers at 1 when you have grant Shiels and Montanella is a poor decision...persisting with Phil Godman when he has been woeful is a poor decision...persisting with Fury when he is appalling is a poor decision.

Why has Kibirige etc not been given a good run out...hes way better than Cato etc etc.

Next season is going to be so interesting to see what sort of signings come in and what direction we go.

Yea defiantly GF.

I've heard Shiels has had a back injury and only used in desperation, not sure Montella is fully fit either.

Heard we bossed the scrum at the weekend, at least we can say Barrow, Lawson and Brookes have been positives.

Quote from Lee Smith:

Smith himself has been spending the past fortnight doing his homework, stating: “I got in Monday morning of last week and was introduced to the lads, got all my kit and was straight out on to the training field.

“I have been staying in a hotel during the week and going back home on my day off, so I am taking a full part in training and just getting into it.

Learning the play-book has been a big thing to start with, and there are a load of new calls and patterns to take in.

“There have been some early mornings just sat there with my cup of coffee going through every call, and it has been a good experience so far.”

We have a play book?

Laugh 

Having just looked at the league table, I too am surprised to hear you have a play book Pooly.

What's going on up at Falcons? 7 tries in 14 games and averaging less than 10 points a match, I expected more from a team coached by Deano.

Its called playing Godman at FH Ozzy. The guy isnt even championship standard.

A playbook?! Holy moly!!!

Yes Sarge i appreciate Shiells is in big trouble with his back and Montanella hasnt been fit so i shouldnt be so harsh there...but no excuses about the others.

I think Shiels picked up the problem playing for us in the draw against the Saxons. Sorry about that.

The fact that hes barely played this season suggests theres a more serious long term problem with him.

Sarge, whats your opinion on Vickers? Ive just drilled on the unoffy for saying if Shiels and Montanella were fit he wouldnt be there. Everyone saying hes the first name on the team sheet.

Im not convinced.

He's been a bit of a revelation GF.

I've been very critical of Deano for continuing with him but each time I catch a game he looks better and better.

We've not been beaten by many in the scrum for a while now. I rate a fit Montella higher but Vickers has done a top job.

Thats how Mark Smith described him...and the corner stone of the pack.

I'm not sure I'd call him the cornerstone, he looks considerably better when Brookes plays I think.

He's certainly a good option though and he's always been handy in the loose.

At least he doesn't have to throw anymore!

At least Godman is gone.

Sinoti out for a month.

Good side, hope we get at least another lbp but it'll be tight. I like the 9-13, starting to get some continuity.

Yeah i saw that about Sinoti. But why wont the coaching team just tell us who else is actually out injured.

It looks to me that Shiells is a serious concern if these rumours of a back problem are true but we dont know anything?

Yes 9-13 is looking better but why has it taken nearly to March to give Clegg and Blair a run of games rather than Godman.

Think we'll start announcing some more players in the next 4-6 weeks.

I have a strong feeling we'll make Gonz full time with the ARU funding part of his deal as they want a Bosch/Tiese midfield for RWC.

Its only really a few positions we actually need.

I have trust in Richards still, and think we have a real batch of classy academy youngsters ready to step up, many have sampled games this season already. He will get us there.

6-19 down and we bring it back to 16-22 at Full time for another LBP, well done boys!

That was an impressive Saints side, I'm happy with that result.

Oh surprised to not see Nagle at least on the bench so. I'm guessing they are just getting him used to the club and the patterns etc.?

God knows what Deans plans are!

Barnes hasnt shown a huge amount to be fair...and could just be benched...or equally he could be injured...we just have no idea because communication coming out of KP is appalling.

Rotation is the best we can hope for, Vickers is meant to be a bit of leader on the pitch in the sense he drags you with him.

Well Vickers is actually playing well, ill give him that but i just feel that Montanella is another league above.

Im concerned about Grant Shiels. Its either one major back problem hes got...or he's just not rated and will be away in the summer.

Theres a young SH in the Academy...is it Andy Davies. He's had a few run outs already...probably work with him.

Id rather have kept Pilgrim and got shot of Fury. Cant see what he gives...

Fury is an absolute disgrace.

Godman played ok but Hodgson gives us so much more and with Smith kicking we don't him.

Smith impressive.

up to 60 minutes Falcons played well, i really think there close to clicking. Think they are just rushing things to much at the minute.

Fury hasn't showed anything even last year in the championship...hes another one of those curious selections that Dean Richards keeps picking.

If Smith is going to kick well then surely once and for all get rid of Godman.

Be interesting to see who we bring in in the summer. I don't think we actually need that many players...the core is not too bad..just a few players in key positions with a bit more quality...and hope that the rest of the young academy lads can make an impact like Scott Wilson, McGuigan etc can make.

For all this season has been hugely frustrating at times I still have faith in this coaching team that they can and are taking us in the right direction.

I would just like a little bit more communication from them.

I think we miss a go to ball in the pack & backs. Look at Tigers and they always have options to get them over the gain line and some front foot ball.

We need a big carrying backrower and something in the centres.

I'd like to see this side:

1. Montenella
2. Lawson
3. Brookes
4. McKenzie
5. Nagle
6. Barrow
7. Saull
8. Wilson

9. Blair
10. Hodgeson

11. Cato
12. Powell
13. Sinoti
14. Smith
15. Tait

Moving forward we're still needing a lock, 8, 10, centre.

Love to see Barrow back playing, we really miss him.
