Maybe burgess has realised that our attack completely dies when the ball gets in Tai's hands. Unfortunately he also seems to think that a 36 year old veteran playing 7 will help our attack. It's all a bit odd.

Genuinely can't get my head round hating one of our own players.



Anyway hope Leyland has a good game, Sam has made all our bellyaching look daft.

I thought the same seeing the way some people talk about Ratchford, he's been a great servant and doesn't warrant such vitriol.

I didn't see any vitriol? Just people passing opinion on his selection. I think most people would regard Ratchford warmly.

Not sure saying someone is 'haunting the 17' is a particularly warm sentiment.

And in fairness you’d be right in my personal opinions towards Ratchford. IMO he’s been drastically overrated as a rugby league player throughout his career and, as such, has cost us on many occasions….also heard a few things that go against his ‘nice guy’ image.
