| Quote: Stinky Turner "Right; I thought you meant a comment in the actual article. Therefore based upon your statement relating to the comment afterwards revised mark is 10/10.
But your query relating to full-backs in the u20s is still 0/10. Thirty seconds research even if you don't live on rugby league messageboards would indicate who Warrington u20s full-back was.
Did you notice that Warrington's non-existent facilities that you was mocking the other week are to be used as a base for one of the Works Cup Teams (don't be suprised to find its a major nation). Which country is going to be based at Cowley High School?'"
It's hardly an unreasonable stretch to suggest a player signed 12 months ago as a fullback could play fullback. I was only suggesting it as well, I wasn't saying he should. I was looking for opinions on whether he was up to it, as I've never seen him play. I just remember the Bradford fans kicking up a fuss about losing him.
As for the Cowley thing. The facilities at Saints for training and the ground itself are better than Warrington's equivalent. It's not about that though it's about commercial factors. How much will it cost to rent the venues? Wire obviously put together an attractive bid package, where I think Saints were more concerned with actually getting the ground built. Plus, the timing of the announcement meant they made the decision before a game has been played at Langtree Park, so they couldn't commit a high profile game to it at that stage.

Hold on, a couple of weeks ago you didn't even know about Warrington's training facilities now you know that Saints' are better (which I doubt). How do you work that out?

Cos they is. I said so. The pitch Warrington use at the College is enough to judge that on, it's awful.

| Bloody hell.
I gotta say hats off to you Sad end. Even Rogues will struggle to get this many bites of such crumby bait.
I don't know how he does it. I really don't.

| Stef Ratchford could possibly start at fullback then.

No, it really isn't. Stop being childish.

Wasn't the plan that he was being groomed for fullback?

Riley did a more than adequate job when filling in at full back last season.
I'd be more than happy and confident for him to start the season at full back.
I really don't know where the idea that Riley isn't good enough for full back comes from.

| He does do an adequate job no o e is denying tht, he returns the ball extremely well! The difference is the demension you get from having a ball playing fullback who can link up with the half backs like hogeson! We lacked that with riley in my opinion!
Riley's a proven try scorer on the wing!

| In the Knights game, that was the worst performance I've ever seen from Ratchford. You can tell he's not got the experience at fullback (not yet anyway). He just looked lost and out of position in attack constantly. More game time and training should help this but we'll see soon enough.
Riley has been given a first team jersey on the wing, that must be where Mr Smith wants him to be. I think Ratch will be groomed (if that's the right word?!) into a fullback like Tomkins was by Fadge.

| I hope Riley gets a chance again at fullback. Never lets the team down and played well at back end of last year give him a chance.
