Old "Quickening" is only trying to rev. you up for a bit of fun.
Don't bite.

Good troll-handling. Ratchford, the man who doesn't make breaks and admittedly came up with a few errors tonight, made one great clean break (no support), scored two tries and kicked 2/2 conversions.

Im with quickening...sorry he's not great! See attempt to get round fb tonight plus dg attempt against saints! Cr@p decisions are the absolute barometer between good players and great players. Been very good this season but, as usual, when really needed...poo!

I don't get the criticism at all he is one of our most important and talented players.

#1 for try assists (16)
#2 for meters (2.6Km)
#2 for breaking tackles (74)
#3 for tries scored (9)

You can bet the opposition worry about him, Clark, Charnley, and Hill (when he is not being a prima-donna)

He would have had support off lineham. He was running up and waa then tackled without the ball. Something else that the ref didn't see.

Yeah, the cas defender didnt stop him taking one of these options;
Slow down and pass to Goodwin
Kick past the FB
Side step the FB
Slow and go past the FB (BETTER THAN HIS ATTEMPT)

IT WAS A GIMME..He might as well have wandered over for a cuddle

I'm with you - that was a mistake. But plenty others make more mistakes on a much more frequent basis without offering any of the upside that Ratchford does.

Just look at Cooper tonight - hands of e, penalties. Roberts - the invisible man in the first half. Brown knocking on on 1st tackle from scrum on Cas 10m.

Agreed. Brown's knock-on and Hill's woeful ptb were far more costly tonight. I like Price and think this will be remedied. Really hope Price drops Sita for Wembley too.

I believe Price will sort it out in time. Hes only been the the job for 29 games. We are a long way from the finished article. Having said that this is a much better season than I expected.

I am a great fan of Ratchford though i have never been a fan of him at fullback ,for one thing his kick returns never vary. I know we played a greatly weakened Cats team last week but i was impressed with Mitch Brown at the back.
Let's be honest here ,Mr Price has had very little input into this year's team & no pre season but has got us to Wembley which,win or lose we must be grateful for ,with a limited squad. Perhaps next season we will see Ratchford moved from fullback to the halves & see what he can do there.

I've always said he needs to be in a position where he can get his hands on the ball.
I would have slightly preferred him at 6 until this season. He's developed into the fullback role and I think he's most happy there.

Today the pack largely let the team down. No back can play efficiently went not able to roll of the front foot. That happen at Cas. I thought Patton did great coming on fresh withing 2 weakened teams but it was only time that his influence would also seccum to naught behind the beaten pack.

I was completely disappointed with Hill for the stupidest amass of penalties. If he falls into that attitude vs the big pack of Catalans, we'll too will be already beaten at half time.

But back on topic...Ratchford...? Not on enough for me. By far our best inside back.

Had a good laugh at a number of these posts.

Appreciate there's some wind ups here and treated this thread accordingly.

Now where's the laughing emoji when you need It?
