Plus, add to this, Saints have made an offer for Ratchford for the remainder of the season.

Haven`t heard that anywhere before.

Please post a link on here, if you have one.

Thanks.

Ratchford to saints won't happen, we need the cover for Halfback/fullback.
All the best to Billy, he came over and it didn't work out simple as.
And like Alffi said, Harrison could be earmarked for the 13 position, and Jason Clark is there for back up and experience. So we're not any weaker really with Billy leaving. Does his wage come off the cap as he's been released, or does it stay on? I must admit we've discussed salary cap with players leaving etc but i still can't work it out?

NRL clubs queuing up as we speak. No words……

This season is getting surreal. It has just felt like a revolving door, with players coming, going or suddenly becoming out of favour and being discarded. The atmosphere in and around the team must be very strange. It feels like it's either going to make or break us, in the long run.

feels a lot like 2001, when dv2 left, anderson took over and there was a revolving door of trialists in and out till the end of teh season, and poor performances

Yes, I tend to agree.
It seemed obvious to me that when DP came in he'd want to make changes and some players would fall out of favour - it's not uncommon, although I don't think Saints seem to have this problem - so I guess we'll just have to wait and see how things pan out.
Those changes were always going to cause upset, but allied to the losses it hits the squads' confidence.

Watching from afar

Perhaps our forward planning is to be the strongest team in the Championship ,then the HJ can be touted as an ideal development opportunity while we play at Vicky Park.

Totally agree..

There is a very strong rumour that Ratchford has signed a new contract with Wire.

He is not a young player, requiring game time to improve his skills and is playing regular 1st team Rugby League here.

Another successful Powell signing!!! Who's the next out of the door? Bullock? Charley? Long staff? Ratchford?
