Made up Leyland is starting, Gutted Holroyd misses out, But good to see Fitz back, but absolutely BUZZING Musgrove misses out

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.
