unless he brings bridge back into the squad we need to sign a new centre, im a massive fan of ratchford but he isnt a centre, he needs space to run and create something and he doesnt get it a centre, he's a fullback or halfback...he shown it when he had a 2 on 1 with ryan hall and passed it forward straight into halls chest

Agree he's a good centre in a poor competition but if we are talking the RL world he's not "one of the best"

Kallum Watkins is a far superior centre skill wise and he still has a lot of improvement in him.

I don't see why people have a downer on Atkins. His form sometimes dips for a while and there are one or two rough edges about his defence but I think he's a fantastic centre, to have that explosive power is rare, I think he's one of the more exciting players Wire have had in my lifetime of watching.

When we signed him I was a bit unsure as I thought he was a bit overrated at Wakey but I've become a big Atkins fan since he's played for us.

His acceleration is amazing, the second he bursts that first tackle you're thinking, this is going to be a try.

Love Atkins, with you on this Sal one of my favourite all time players.

He's a player that immediately fills me with anticipation when he's got the ball. Great player to have.

2 words and the 2nd is "off". I'm sure you're intelligent enough to work the other out for yourself. Saying that you're a Leyther so I might have to be more specific
