Ooh he won't like that, he hates playing full back.

...and you so eloquently make the point that's been said on here and other threads before that Ratchford is undoubtedly a talent, yet he can't force his way to a regular outing at 6 for us and wouldn't for your lot either. As I see it, the only difference between Stef at Salford and Stef at Warrington/Wigan/Hudds/Leeds/Saints will be the money he earns, and, I absolutely cannot blame him for moving on for money, RL is a short career.

If he stays fab, if he doesn't then that's ok too in my book, we'll all have to wait and see what happens but I for one will just be happy that I saw him grace the red shirt and always gave his best.

he has gone to warrington were do they get the money from

I always strongly suggest that any club knows a player is moving on that they not play again. Keep him out and let someone else stake a claim for his spot.
Nothing personal against Steff or anyone I just hate the RL system of a player siging for another club mid season and not moving on immediately.

no transfer fee, he's out of contract

Take That.

how do they get way with it, tapping up players mid season,

but thats rugby league about as level as the big one at Blackpool.

Depends who for I guess.

totally nonsense...he wants success....Challenge cup finals etc...

I'm sure he does, but he probably wants to contribute to those instead of being a bench-warmer, and/or The Challange cup final water carrier. Besides, you may be successful this year but it doesn't mean you will be next year. Sport is a fluid thing and by no means certain.

Iestyn Harris left Warrington for Leeds because he didn't want to play fullback.......

Leon Pryce left Bradford because he didn't want to play in the centres

Myler had a good game in last years final.

Oh, hang on................

From what I've been told by someone from within Warrington he wouldn't have been able to see the ball an yway as he was crying to much.

I have no doubt Myler is a huge talent and has prospered but I for some nagging reason doubt Steff would, think he would benefit being the biggest cog in the entire machine and I would think that if he were at Cas or any of the less glamerous teams. I'd say to Steff wait to see what plans the new coach has for you and then make a decision, as someone else has said give him a good off season on the weights and watch him turn into a centre in the Newlove mould or if the new guy sees him @ 6 then watch him become a truelly brilliant number 6 without peer in the UK within a couple of years.

I told you he'd signed for Warrington weeks ago.
