I hope the club are offering Ratchford a similar deal as to what was proposed to Myler, as I think he is definitely worth it and at present is a player that is in a high demand not just in our code of the sport. Com'on Ratch, please sign on the dotted line.

I just hope the club will do all they can to try and keep this talent at our club, same goes for 'Big' Ray also. Would be fantastic if they both signed on for long term deals.

I hope he makes the right deciton and decides to stay, the club have moved forward with new ground, New better players and are trying to clear the dead wood which have prevented us from moving on before.

He is only 22 another 3 years of development and he could be a world class centre.
Might be worth asking jordan turner about his deciton about leaving us, promised he'd be playing standoff for hull is currently playing centre the same position he finished @ salford, he's probably on a lot more money but hull ant exactly setting the world on fire are they?.

I just hope he thinks about his careers, looks at the bigger picture sees us as a club we are moving forward and makes the correct call, instead of taking the money and running of to somewhere where he will be a small cog in a machine rather than a big cog he is here.

We have to sign big ray if he wants to stay in superleague end of

How do you know what the right "decision" for him is?? For us as Salford fans the right decision would be for him to stay. What if Wigan were sniffing round him, as a Wiganer I'd expect the right decision would be to sign for them.

He could also look at the way Stephen Myler's career has gone in Union too. He is a much much better player IMO than Myler and Myler is/was on the verge of England honours as far as I know.

shhhhhhh

What if Ratchford reads this?

Nail, Hit, Head

Depends on the terms, is he guaranteed 1st team football?, is he good enough to play standoff for Wigan week in week out? At the moment no and Wigan you don't learn a trade you win, don't win and your out.

Stephen myers game suited union that's why he moved great kicking game that's about it.

just heard that the wire could be after him, oh no not again

If Wigan had any sense Sam Tomkins would be playing 6.

Can't see Ratchford has anything to gain by moving away from Salford now. On the other hand, if he lives up to all our expectations his next contract may be another matter.

Can't understand why Big Ray hasn't been signed up already. In the League Express this week it read as though he was simply waiting for the Reds to put an offer on the table. Failure to retain him would be a huge mistake. He's our best prop by far and we could do with signing someone his equal, not losing the best prop we've got.

Also can't understand why we're dragging our heels about signing a replacement for Bailey, surely there's someone out there?!

Someone huh? He sounds class!

It's a distinct possibility in 2012.



Deacon and Leuluai aren't getting any younger and Tomkins looks to be settled at full back.



Sam Tomkins, Goulding, Mcllorum, Hansen, Joel Tomkins, O'Loughlin, Prescott, O'Carroll, Mossop, Farrell, Tuson, Marsh and Charnley all seemed to have learnt a trade at Wigan.

What he said







I just wrote war and peace on Stef for it to dissapear can't b assed writing it again just ask KOTS my opinion he knows them best .

FB hasn't worked out too badly for them?! (or him)
