I mean, I remember last seeing him on the pitch in the first leg against the eagles, along with several scouts from the premier league watching him. I remember also prior to the match a lot of press on Ralls regarding his skill as a young footballer. After that game he vanished!
So what happened? Did he grow an ego, & got taught a lesson by MM
Or.. Did Malky take him off the scene to protect him?
Discuss.

He's f*cking shit mun.
Went up to Fairwater I heard, stood on a dodgy needle that litters the place and contracted a strain of HIV only found in that part of the world

During the last half of the season both Kadeem Harris and he have been on a special programme so that their bodies will be better able to deal with the pro game.

Hope they do that with Rudy, for such a physical specimen he is injury prone.

All part of the development I guess.
Ralls got a stupid amount of stick after the palace away game so maybe MM just let him take a back seat for a bit.
He'll be back no doubt.

To be fair he did have a bit of a shocker at palace away.
But I don't think anyone expected him to be gone for the rest of the season, I hope it's for footballing reasons and we didn't destroy his confidence after Palace away

He wasn't at his best at palace but he wasn't the worst on show, he did become a bit of a scapegoat for that result though.
I doubt his confidence was knocked but maybe MM removed him to keep it that way.

For all we know he may have picked up an injury. Quite a few players did behind the scenes and they didn't always tell us.

Yeah could very well be.
Either way i don't think it's the last we have seem of him. From his twitter comments he seems happy with how his season has gone.
Fri May 25, 2012 3:48 pm
Yes I'd be very surprised if he didn't appear again. When he played well he definitely looked to have a bright future ahead of him.

Last time I saw him down the vale he had an ankle injury - that was about two months ago.

He came on in a game towards the end of the season as sub.

Maybe it was just a case of the arrival of liam lawrence and a near fit again steve mcphail meant joe didnt make the bench,which again highlights how bloody ridiculous the new maximum of 5 rule is.
Definetly see more of him next season
Fri May 25, 2012 4:47 pm
Joe Ralls is a special talent!
People haven't really seen too much of him to judge in depth to be fair. However, I think he'll become an integral future player for us like Ledley was.
He'll be back. Trust me.

Last game he played was against Derby.
Fri May 25, 2012 4:54 pm
There is a simple answer to this topic heading.....Stephen McPhail! He returned to fitness and it mean that Ralls wasn't really needed innthe squad as much. He's a youngster and will continue to be nurtured too
