Assuming you rate Austin - just when did you do the big volte-face on Patton?

That's what I was thinking.

Which other SL clubs would Patton be a starting half back for? I can't think of any bar the exception of possibly London.

It's becoming easy for teams at the minute to play against us. All they have to do is mark Austin out of the game. Patton offers nothing barring the odd decent pass now and then again. With his small size as well it's not even like he has that injection of pace of the mark to create, like the likes of Burrow or Tomkins etc possessed.

I'm nowhere near Kev Brown's biggest fan and have been very critical about him in the past but there's a reason the club are rushing him back from injury and I can't wait to have him back.

So where does Ratchford fit into your grand plan if you’re keeping Patton on and putting Mamo at FB?

Patton back in only because Ratchford is out injured.
Otherwise it would be Austin and Ratchford.

Said it so often...a big good un always beats a small good un.

Patton is on a lucky last chance for him....he needs to step up now and just do it.

BTW....I'm not pro Patton.... I've always been pro my team and always saying Ratchford should be in the position he can get his hands on the ball.
Personally it's half back but if Price sees it as full back, so be it.

I've always has that view.

Patton has it in him....he isn't taking a risk though. Nobody wins anything playing it safe... like I said....that is my disappointment in him.

He's going to get another month at hb I don't think he'd have had, had Ratchford not got injured. It's up to him now.

Ducky I am sure I remember, as will others, that all pre-season you were saying we didn't need anyone other than Patton at half back.

He wouldn't start at any side aiming to compete in the playoff's, nevermind win the SL that's for sure.

I too am hoping that Kev's structured play and organisation will allow more freedom for Austin's 'off the cuff' style. Even then I think we are an effective, big minute prop light.

Just play your assistant coach at FB. He's match fit.

You can't have many left, after so many went down injured

I couldn't go, last week (I had a note from Matron).

Honest question. How the #### did we lose to this shower. They are TRASH

You can see Hull are fatigued today.
They were flat out against a poor Wire performance.
Wire would be putting 60 on Hull today.

We put 50 points on the team that is battering them and got slagged off for that!

Hull have turned into Catalans with their inconsistency.

I thought last week was a long game but this Giants v Dull is endless.
