Ben Barba yes he's having a cracking season for the Dogs since they moved him from half back to full back, I'd go as far as saying I'd guess he was even the clubs top scorer. That said I watched LP over the years and I for one am delighted the general came to Salford make no mistake he is/was one of the NRL's best fullbacks ! |

I don't see many better at Fullbacks in SL than Patten. Although, if he has one downside, he seems little weak for the last line of defence. Definitely no Kris Radlinski, but he makes up for it with his attacking class.
Ben Barba is quality, also, and tipped to be Slater's replacement in the Queensland team. |

Big call LDF very big call but I suppose as a fellow Queenslander he has a chance. Don't you just feel sorry for the NSW guys .  |

Read it in an interview with Darren Lockyer. You can see why they didn't mind letting Patten go, when they've got a player of his quality ready to emerge.

Just been to the Wigan v crusaders game at Wrexham ( James Child was at his confusing best BTW).
Anyway, I was talking to a Wiganer who claimed to know Ratchford's dad. It seems that they have offered him a 3 year deal and it seems like a done deal! The main comment was "he's a Wigan lad!"
Can't really blame him wanting to play for his hometown club who just happen to be champions! What will set Ratch apart if this is true will be his attitude and effort for the rest of this season. If he puts his body on the line for us right thru then I will happily say thank you and good luck!!!!
Last thing we need is any Coley like antics!!! Don't think Ratch is made that way tho!!!!

If he was being serious. Most of the rest of the players' banter this morning seemed to be pretty jokey. |

Aye, it did. Just seemed like the joke on that particular tweet was about the handshake.
It's good that there seems to be a good spirit amongst the lads though. |
