Depends, really - i thought Ratu was great in his 1st game, wasnt impressive at all at Fev, and had a decent game on thurs but not a stand out.
Charlie looked like he gave away to many pens on thurs (although i may be wrong)
Cooke has been flying in with superman tackles so hope he keeps this going.

| Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista"Conceptus.
I think you are missing the point. You were attempting to bait me with the fact that a few half wits (that's being kind) were making stupid comments about the Tongan Mafia. I condemned those comments. Yet it's clear that a rather large group of Rovers fans chose to sponsor a player convicted in the last year of kicking someone on the floor 20 odd times, when there were other young squad members without sponsorship to choose from at the time. I think you'd be hard-pressed to claim any sort of moral high ground about Rovers fans collectively condemning violent behaviour. Both sets of supporters have a minority of idiots. Deal with it.'"
So in essence you codemn all firms / individuals who sponsor any player convicted of violence.?

Depends if we are talking a handbags situation in which 2 people punch each other....OR a person gets their mate to hold some-one down so he can kick him numerous times and then go back for more, you see their are people who have disputes and it can end up in a fight or there are out right cheap shot thugs..

You are right, however it will always cause a reaction/debate when it is raised, and I think it is silly when people defend players like Cockayne & Raynor.

You were trying to tar me with brush of some comments of some idiots wishing injuries on players (having brought it up on several occasions already), implying that collectively FC fans supported violence. Rovers fans choose collectively to sponsor Ben Cockayne. I'm not condemning it. Just pointing out the irony of you jumping up and down about some stupid comments as if it shows all FC fans in a violence-sponsoring light, when your own fans are providing direct sponsorship to Cockayne (and took the decision to do so at a point in time when players like Taylor did not have sponsors).

[uA[/u collective of Rovers fans, which is slightly different, especially if you are complaining about tarring a whole group with the same brush. This is done in support of his role as a rugby player, not as an endorsement of his criminal violence anyway. Another collective sponsors Shaun Briscoe and Richard Beaumont.
Up to a point one man's biff is another man's thuggery - tends to depend whether it is his team dishing it out or taking it. Being fans makes hypocrites of us all.

All fair and valid points as usual.
Although you could say then that other Rovers fans shouldn't be tarred with the brush of the minority wanting to directly sponsor Cockayne.

You really are a mind reader aswell are you Mrs B  , It's like me saying some hull fans changed their avatar when Chev walker picked up his unfortunate injury.
P.S. What is your definition of several BTW
