A good player IMO but we'd be losing more power in the backs. We're not a big side and this would reduce that even more. Our game plan does seem based around pace and fast ball movement so perhaps this fits well with that.

If true, the question is where would he play seeing that he is a Full Back/Stand Off with Sam back and Hampshire around?

A replacement at Loose Forward perhaps?

Where has that come from Kitt?
Close to the source but can't say more than that for obvious reason!
I understand, it may be that I am getting the information from the same source.

Just watched the first half of the Wire v Saints game and Ratchford is pants. Missed some easy kicks too!

I watched Wigan last week and they were all pants, Smith misses easy kicks every week.

Fairpoint and i agree Smith is not good enough as a kicker but why recruit Ratchford when George and Rocky should be our halfbacks for years to come!!

I agree ESF but Wane doesn't! Smith showed his lack of natural rugby ability when he broke through yesterday, Williams and Hampshire would have rounded the fullback.
