Quote: rubber duckie "....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.'"


That's the very reason he isn't in a "premier" position as he can fill in. I had him down as FB when he kept Hodgson at bay at the end of his time with us, but, have to agree with LOngbarn's assessment

Quote: LOngbarn Wire "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.'"

He can also be very lethargic with his running from our line. The difference when Russell plays is huge, Russell just needs to do have an hour training every day for a few weeks under the high bomb with Hill Westwood and Dodds sprinting at him and he'll be right. We can easily be on the 30m line by tackle1 when Russell plays.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg



"that" pass back inside for the try was sublime! I think he will ultimately develop into a classic loose forward, if they ever come back into fashion. Maybe the reduction in replacements will aid this.

I'm afraid he frightens me in defence when at full back. He's too casual moving to the ball and his carry with the ball dangling loosely from one arm is a vary nasty habit. He is superb player but I think we should forget full back.
