It was his size that concerned me at SL level, especially against top teams/players but I couldn’t have been more wrong, he looks a top prospect. When I saw him carve through for the disallowed try i just thought what the hell.
I really never got your size point. He's hardly small.

What an excellent way to start the season. Doesn't come better than a win in front of over 10,000 whinos! More pleasing to me is the quality of our squad, ravaged by injuries in the first the first competitive game of the season and yet the 'fringe players' stepped up. BV should be packed for 1st home game!
Defence and attack outstanding. We made Leeds look very ordinary, Trueman absolute class and Lino a great game ran rings round Leeds first half. Evey player did a great job. Leeds totally overated.

Can not call them fringe players after yesterday, more like we got a solid squad that are all good enough for S L

I know you didn’t you’ve said before. lol: When I look at top draw centres majority are tall and rangy ie Farnworth, Wardle et al. Pratt is 5:10. For me that goes against the grain of what I’d known. The forum is all about Opinions, Powells opinion was he didn’t know whether Pratt was a centre or a winger. I hope he becomes a future international, he completely nullified Handley (my opinion isn’t a centre in a month of Sundays but a class winger).If I give an opinion I’ll happily eat humble pie if it means we’re winning or a player proves you wrong in a positive way. I didn’t think Pratt would be as good as he is this early on in SL. Yesterday showed that I was wrong.
DONT TOUCH THE WATCH
