Needs to learn how to tackle.
His touch finding was pretty good and his try was top class.

People who wear his and hers matching sweaters should hereby be banned from all sporting arenas.:36045.jpg



the lad should have played at six all year giving him the experience required for big games such as today.

Donlan should have been full back all year.

seriously, would we be in any worse a situation? no!

I have seen lots all year, far better than Watson, who should be at 9.
Defence is fine, it looked worse when Maden and Reay were around him.

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg



Thought he had a good game and will only get better.......

No - but he is a key player and will stand out more than others if he is slow / passes badly / makes the wrong decision etc.

Pleased for the lad. I think the intention was for him to be h/b cover, for Watson and the stand off that never appeared - and that, in my opinion, has been what has cost us so dearly!

I have been a critic of his tackling but he had his best game in a Leigh shirt today.

There's no doubting he's slow, he's still the third highest try scorer at the club though! Unfortunately his brain is far too quick for the players he's been asked to lead! icon_smile.gif

How people can have a pop at Watson is beyond me?
He has never had pace. If he did he would have played for GB!!
Ridyard and Watson should have been 6 and 7 all season!

Played well last week and stepped up to the plate today.

As Alan says, I think he was only brought in as back-up this year so has played a lot more first team than maybe first envisaged. That said, it should stand him in good stead ahead of what I imagine will be a regular first team spot next year.

Watson is the reason we are in this position as he doesn't let younger more talented players have the opportunity to express themselves.
Hemmingway gave him an earful and started to produce with confidence. Ridyard today proved he is more than capable of guiding the team around the pitch with Jock and Durbin. Plus his kicking game is far better.
