He's going to be good for us at centre based on tonight's showing. icon_smile.gif

He's not a decent centre he's okay at it. He played behind a dominant pack and like the rest of the team in all positions, looked fantastic.
But still that doesn't make him a centre.
He won't get enough share of the ball at centre to show his total best.

It's his best position.

And eventually Toby King.

Ryan & Ratch in the Centres next season with Toby as replacement when needed.

If he does play centre next year, that obviously leaves us needing a new half back.

He is a half all day long. He played well v Saints but was still 2nd fiddle to Atkins game.
Before the last month Ratch was getting ripped in all positions by many of you.
Many saying he should be moved on.

Make your minds up. So many short memories on here. A week in RL really is a long time.

Ratch ought to be 6 and Gidley FB.
We need to go out and find a quality 3/4 to replace Bridge.

Agreed if we are not going to buy another centre. Russel at FB & Gidley with Sandow.

Atkins and Ratchford for me, against Sts Atkins looked confident with strength, pace and great defence, Ratchford was given more space and was elusive has good hands and defence.

....and hasn't that been said before about Ratch when he played FB?

Can nobody on here see the woods beyond the trees?
Everyone is trying to give him a category.
He's a centre, he's a FB, he's a spare part, he's a hb, he's a loose.

The guy is just a quality player with a ability to cover many positions well. That is the very reason he ought to be in a premier position to utilise his craft best.

He'll get plenty of ball in the centres, plus we have the extra kicking options similar to Moon at Leeds.

Il admit I was in the 'Ratch for Full Back' brigade for a while. But this year, his defence as the last man has been terrible. It is no co-incidence that our best performances this year have been with Russell/Johnson at full back and Stef in the centres. With a decent half back picking the gaps for him, he could be just what we need at centre next season!! His best performance of the year for me last night.

Gidley has played in the halves most of this season and Patton is developing. And Russell is our best FB.
