Absolutley stupid playing him tonight, I said it before the game kicked off, they would pepper him all night with King facing him.

And before anyone starts, read my previous posts, i've never been one of these who kisses Ainscoughs ar3e and says 'ooo he should be playing week in week out'.

Worse then 2005 or 2006?

Nah i think not now run along.

I dont get all this play him against Riley, Riley had a crazy jump when he was still in school, should still do now.

He'll learn his lessons = He'll come good.

I'm not saying anything about his attack, it's obviously great. His problem is kick defence, and every super league winger needs to be able to take a bomb under pressure, otherwise every team with a decent play kicker and a tall winger will exploit him. It's not all down to him though, he needs protection from his centre too.

But that is all the fault of his coach, the other 12 players, the opposition coach for targetting him, the whole lot.

Sean Ainscough is the complete RL player and is 100% immune from any sort of critical comment.

No, in fact there's a general scapegoat heirarchy:

1. Mark Riddell
2. Other aussies (bonus if Tim Smith's seen in King Steet)
3. Coach (bonus if we lose or he drops a youngster from the team)
4. Stuart Fielden
5. Andy Coley
6. Coaching Setup
7. Captain (bonus if he doesn't shout and scream when the opposition score)
8. Any player over the age of 21 who used to be a promising youngster who was going to be a world beater (bonus when they sign for Hudds or Salford)
9. Youngsters

There's only really one case I can recall of a youngster in his first season getting made into a scapegoat and that was Desi Williams
