Too feckin' right I was.
Roberts is a lazy feck of a bas' tard.

We seem the videos of him taking on the line, splitting defences, kicking 7 bells of shat out of the opposition...
Which Roberts did we get?...
I pointed out first he was a big fat lazy lard....
But I stuck to him because how can it be that we see a man in the NRL peeing it there....then we get a feckin flump!
There had to be something he was holding back...but the conniving sly lazy .... was holding out to the the end.

Feck him. Feck him. He fecked over my Wire.

How good was Wire on 2018....?....

Wire was from Price...
Just over a week later, Price didn't even let him on the the pitch in the Challenge Cup semi final...even though we'd smashed it.

In the Challenge Cup final and Grand Final Patton pleaded to get on the pitch.
In the Grand Final 30 min's before the end Patton said to Price get me on, I'm ready, I'll do something here, I'll win it. Price turned to Briers...Briers said 'get him on'...Price 'bottled'[edited] it...he left him out.
Only forced to bring Patton in when it was all too late.

I don't give a shiny one [edited] now....I've kept my cool. I know what's going on.

[Edited as requested]

Renee!

And didn't he smash it when he came on? His short kicking game proving exceptional. His drop goals arent nailed on either....see cup 2017.

Patton isn't going to give you 5 star for every little last minute he's thrown in...few would. He's not Andrew John's...and what did he do in the play off semi vs Hull.!?

Patton need's a run...just give the lad a season at 7.
Price needs to listen to himself.
'The team doesn't need change but to evolve'!
Well get the lad in...back him for a season....if he doesn't do it, then fine..but a snip here and there, playing off the bench as a forward...come on, the guy is a hb all day long.

Do us a favour, stop saying shat. It just looks stupid, theres a swear filter you know.

In case you missed the point SC was indicating you were wrong then and perhaps you are wrong now.

Give the lad a shot and let him prove you right.

CALLUP : Patton got a late call up because Richardson was injured.

SCOFIELD : Gary Scofield in mid March said "Warrington will get nowhere near the top 4".

TRUST : Did you trust Tony Smith after he signed Asotasi and Bailey.

And sacrifice another season? We owe him nothing, certainly not the hopes and expectations of 10,000 people. Get someone in tried and tested. Patton has had 3 years of chances. In the same time his similarly aged counterpart at Wigan was playing for England.

Players always want to get on the field, their case is strengthened if they have previous of winning big games, or any games.

In the Challenge Cup final Patton kicked out on the full and in the Grand Final knocked on soon after coming on.

You can see why Price might be sceptical of his claim that he would win the Grand Final...

I am never sure what to make of these alleged Patton stories. Wasn't last years, that he gave TS some 'home truths' in the dressing room. If you're going to be like this, you have to back it up with something on the field.

The stories are probably Chinese whispers anyway.

I think Patton lost a fair few brownie points with [ithat[/i tackle at Hull. Until then he was on the frnges but after that Price seemed to lose faith, and I certainly don't blame him for that having witnessed three years of stagnation from Dec and excuses from Dec's admirers.

I'm afraid he is either :

a hooker who can't tackle, distribute effectively and hasn't the acceleration to exploit a quick play-the-ball

or a half back with pedestrian pace, little game management skills, average kicking game and no timing

Take your pick, or trade him in, but lets admit if he hasn't shown it by now at this level, he's unlikely ever to.

If Patton was at Wigan, he just might gave won us the World cup but now.
The World is full of ifs....but nobody ever won anything in their comfort zone. You need risk.

All the world's best players are the ones who took risks....and made countless errors...what makes it some shameful on the treatment of Patton us that we can actually recall those risky errors or even daft errors.

He ought to be in a position that he makes so many errors we lose count...but eventually all those errors begin to fizzle out and those risks become routine.
Players around instinctively know with a wink and a nod what's on.

God knows how many errors Lee Briers made but SC loves the sun that shines out of his backend.
He was given a shot...2 shots even by TS to get himself right.
By God he did.

Patton deserves a shot just for being left out being the lazy flump.
Who with hindsight wouldn't have dropped Roberts for Patton had we known what he was going to give us?

No Chinese whispers from Patton pleading to get on the field to Price....no Chinese whispers about Price asking Briers. It happened but Price couldn't get out of 'his' comfort zone.
We never looked like we would score vs Wigan. Price should have made that call.

Whats the wifi like in the Lower Angel, Duckie? Pull yourself together, Sir. I'm all for calculated risk (just the other night I had a jammie dodger that was a week past it's sell-by) but at some point it becomes sheer-blooded mindedness.
