They didn't offer him enough opportunities near the white line. |

He was great right up until his agent landed him a deal back in Oz. After which time he became much less effective. Still fantastic to watch for the first 2/3rds of the season, and any other club would have loved to have him. But once the Oz deal was on the table, he clearly wasn't the same player. |

Roy enjoy your off season its just started. Leave the big finals to the big teams.
How could Barba be right up there, a full back that cant tackle will never be up anywhere. Hes good with the ball against the lesser teams. Thats it. They guy has no heart.

Not sure why Barba is getting so much stick, it was a forwards game, very little chances for any of the backs, he didn't stand out but didn't do a lot wrong either |

His efforts in defence on Lineham left a lot to be desired. Why be a Full Back when you can't tackle? |

Well I’m gutted. Just got in from work and the game hasn’t recorded.
Anyone of the three left in can win it, Wigan beating Castleford is far from a foregone conclusion, I’m quite nervous about it to be honest.
Off to redvee now to have a giggle while I still can.

I remember reading Red Vee, straight after their semi loss to Cats, and one sage poster said....
....we'd better win the Grand Final, or this will be the biggest bottle job in history....
What a wise man
As they say in Elephant Lane.....bokkle jobs

Ratchford can't tackle! Unfortunately it's the way of the modern fullback |

What's your point? I'm not a massive fan of Ratchford either. Comes up with boneheaded plays and is nornally a one man band. Also half the time looks for bodies to dodge when he could just run forward. Case in point when he picked up that loose ball and was off down the field, side steps one and then instead of taking Barba on the outside he cuts in again and gets caught. He's good but he's also a liability more than some believe. |

Saints have a big problem though. They cannot win when there is any pressure or expectation on them. The only big game they've won in the last seven years was the 2014 Grand Final, and notably, nobody expected them to do so and they were rank outsiders. In literally every single big game for the last seven years where Saints were expected to win, they've lost. That's the worst record of choking in my rugby league watching history of 30 years.'"
And against 12 men for 75 minutes! |

Well he managed to bring down Makinson and Thompson one-on-one last night, when a miss in either case would have been a Saints try. Of course Makinson just needed to pass the ball, but he didn't. |
