He did play poorly, whether you recall it or not. It's the fullbacks job to run hard, find space and provide momentum. He was unable to do this in all his games. You don't need a good team in front of you to collect a ball and make meters and line breaks. Go back and look at his form, it was terrible. He casually did his jog-step and got put on his every carry.



And no, he wouldn't be a huge loss. To be a huge loss you actually have to contribute something and have previous form. We lose very little without him.

Love him or hate him, when your only winning by a few and he gets the ball, your heart is in your mouth. Think Wellens has been the better full back in the play offs but Tomkins has been outstanding all season

I think Saddo's right and Ratboy is carrying a knock. Over the last few weeks I've noticed him holding his arm and shoulder and doing a fair bit of limping. I wonder if he has a specific injury or if it's the wear and tear of a long hard season taking it's toll.

Did he injure his knee last night on Fosters ribs?

maybe he hurt his feet too on Gaskell's face
