Really? He's one of the best halfbacks we have. Myler's in terrible form, Bridge is injured. GOB & Ratch.

This now play off rugby, all players that are fit need to play and our best possible side must be on the field, why would any player be rested for the play offs when if games go against us we might only have two games left after saints
Win Win Win at all costs from now on.

I'd go with this although would start with Waterhouse as he has his 'look I can play a bit' game at Langtree Park. You'd hope O'B and Ratchford would do a good job in the halves against their two and the last couple of weeks has seen a bit of improvement from Russell for mine, so no reason to swap the rear guard especially with the bonus of Evans being (possibly) fit which looked more than a tad doubtful

If Roy plays and doesn't perform I think we can categorically say he never will. Although most already have made that decision anyway!

I have said in other posts I think Ratch is at his best when he plays fullback.i don't think long term he will be the solution at half back.Bridge will play in the halves in the play offs so the next two games are a chance to see who plays there with him.

Sorry to spoil your day Yed but Asotasi in for England according to Sky Sports.

You gave the answer then asked the question!

we have Russell at FB. Ratchford might seem better there than him currently but Russell is an out-and-out fullback and Ratch is a utility player. He deserves a chance to prove himself at HB, especially since him partnered with Bridge led to a 10 game unbeaten run.

I am not saying Ratch should play over Russell at FB. As you said he is a utility player so ATM I would slot him in at centre.He was given the number 6 shirt and the kicking duties and had a good chance and didn't quite make the most of it.If he does play at 6 good luck to him but I remain unconvinced.

I hear Paul Wood and Gene Ormsby will not be selected in the 17 tomorrow.....
That doesn't come from Doc Koukash or Moley either.
