I hope we have a buy back or first option clause. I do rate Richardson and, while I understand the frustrations people have with his game, I think he has the quality to be a good super league half back.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
I reckon Holbrook mis managed him in the second part of last season, he should have been taken out of the firing line for a few games when the opposition found a way to pressure him but Holbrook played him for about 28 games, the lack of rotation last season made quite a few players stale and ineffective.
Theo has had 3 times as many super league games as Richardson that's fairly significant when handling a big game environment, this season Theo has picked up some better game management this season which he was lacking in last year.
Not strong enough for a club like Saints. I honestly think he may struggle at Cas.
Looking at Lomax he may have a cheekbone fracture. Would Danny get drafted in?
No chance he'll miss OT. He did that in the second minute and played the full game. He may have to wear a protective mask mind. That with his skull cap, he'll be looking like Rey Mysterio

I hope it's not that serious... but even if it was, I'd say Lomax would be raring to go anyway. Obviously you have to look after long term health too - but Lomax has played a massive part in our success this season, and I think he will play regardless. Hopefully it won't come to that and the injury isn't so serious.
That injury came about due to an accidental clash of heads it would seem - can't say the same about Clubb though! I hope Coote's kay after that. He was fantastic last night. That's two dirty plays from Clubb in consecutive matches - and looks like he'll not get anything for either!
There will be some joker masks knocking about with holloween on the way.
Stick one of them on and he can terrorise defenses. With and without the ball.
For me it wasn't really late (at least not in an illegal sense ... he hit him after the ball had gone but he was committed to the challenge). It was a shoulder charge but more clumsy than anything else, and was made to look worse as his arm swung up after contact. There was no contact with the head so I'd be very surprised if he was banned.
How come the alleged shoulder charge has migrated onto this thread when the victim was Coote not Richardson.
A decent player. I still question his heart and attitude. Good luck to him if he winds up at Cas.
