i think they got rid of it a while ago, i think it may have been catalan or some other expansion team got pinged for it a few times in a tv game or 2, in quick succession and it got removed in the off season.

i remember the players looking baffled at the ref when he penalised them.

Thanks FMC, it clearly passed me by!

Don't think i've seen BMM looking so fit for us, looks to have shifted a few stone and played more minutes than i've seen him play in a long time. Really hope this is him getting back to his best form Didn't realise Hughes played at Prop but he's a big lad and when he remembers that, he does put some solid runs in for us. Having ratchford back for us is an absolute blessing and a much needed boost to the Squad at the backend of the season.
Just a quick question as i missed the build up to the game and not heard anything since. But what's wrong with Charnley? Not in the team and was on crutches.

Said before that Hughes is my first name. He does the dirty stuff that goes unnoticed. Every successful team needs one if not two of them in the squad.

Not what you’re looking for from a quota player though (not Hughes obviously).

No forward other than a class no 9 would be considered for marquee if it was my choice.

I don’t 5hink J Clarke is marquee RD.

....never said he was.

On this basis Hughes and J Clarke, hence my comment abut “quota”

Apologies misread. Still Hughes is 1st name ahead of all the back rowers. The props pick themselves.

Ratchford & BBM made a massive difference to the side. Ratchford brought an assuredness to the team that we have missed recently, although the didn’t do much he takes a lot of pressure of Austin & Patton as he’s a better ball handler then Mamo & can kick if required. We seem a lot more composed with him at full back.. Mamo for me is a better winger.

BBM looked a lot healthier and fitter, played a lot more minutes then he has done in previous weeks. Hopefully that operation has sorted his issues with his ankle rather then just a cameo 15 minute stint here & there. He looked hungry and up for the game & punched a few holes in Hull’s defence.. more of the same please!

Completely agree '.......88' Ratch made a big difference, his surprise appearance was a real lift (certainly to the fans) and seem to catch Radders off guard which was the whole point I suppose. The other big difference was the positive attitude of the whole team which was good to see.

Exactly, compared to our attitude in recent weeks we seemed ‘up for it’ the defensive approach and determination to keep turn Hull on the back foot worked especially targeting the right winger as much as we did. We had a game plan and executed it perfectly. Our line speed, ball handling and discipline was most pleasing as it was non-existent against Salford at home & Cas away.

Hopefully if BBM & Ratchford have come through unscathed and we can take that CC mentality into the Catalans, I’m confident we can get a result over there.

Ratchfords injury however unfortunate for him personally was the best thing to happen to this team this season.

Got to agree with Mighty Wires 88 having (sobered up) watched it back the change in attitude was really marked from recent matches. Defence on the front foot being the most significant change for me.

Well done all round a much better watch than the tepid performances against the likes of Salford where we seemed to have a plan of standing back and letting them, especially Hastings run all over us
