'When we're reviewing our games it isn't a case of did we win or lose - it's did we show a Premiership standard?'

Adam Radwan says maintaining a Premiership standard is Newcastle Falcons’ goal as they aim to return to the top flight at the first attempt.

The Greene King IPA Championship leaders are on a 14-game winning streak after beating Doncaster Knights, with Radwan’s six tries in nine games helping them to build an eight-point buffer at the top of the division.

“I’m really enjoying this season,” said the winger, who turned 22 less than a fortnight ago.

“It’s been a good one for me and for the team, and we’ve just got to keep kicking on.

“The thing that’s driving us this season is to have a Premiership standard throughout, and we’re having the mind-set of being a Premiership team even though we’re in the Championship.

“When we’re reviewing our games it isn’t a case of did we win or lose – it’s did we show a Premiership standard?

“If we can reach and repeat those levels on a weekly basis then the results should look after themselves, and that’s how we’re looking at it.”

Dotting down 22 tries in his 29 appearances for the Falcons, the Osmotherly-born flyer insists he and his squad-mates are fresh after earning a few days off over the festive period, having chalked up a bonus-point victory at Ealing Trailfinders in their last league outing on December 21.

“It was nice to get some time off around Christmas because usually as sportsmen that’s one of your busiest periods,” said Radwan, who boasts part-Egyptian heritage.

“We’d had a really tough game away to Ealing leading into it so I think the timing was good, and it was great just to be able to refresh your body a bit mid-season. We’ve been working hard since we came back in from our break, the focus is still there and the boys are in a good place.”

Placing no great significance on the West London victory, he said: “The Ealing game was built up by people on the outside with it being live on TV, away from home and against the team who were second in the league at the time.

“From our perspective we didn’t hype it up above any other fixture, because it’s still the same number of points available as any other match. We knew that if we went down there and stuck to our game plan then we weren’t going to have a problem, even though it would obviously be a tough game against a good side.

“Ealing put a lot of pressure on us, our defence got us out of it and we’re just moving onto the next one on Friday.

“We try not to get caught up in any of the chat with regards to some people outside of the club just assuming we’re going to win games.

“You have to work hard to get those results, you need to put it in every single day in training and then execute that game plan on a match-day. It doesn’t just happen, it takes a lot of focus and effort, and while some people externally might be putting games down as automatic wins you won’t find anybody within the club slipping into that mind-set.”

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
