If next season is to be Briers last then if Ratchford goes to 6 Matty Russell may be will go to full back. Can also play wing.
Excellent pace and elusive runner. At 20 he is young enough to have his frailties sorted out.
Thought he looked good at Wigan and Hull given his age and inexperience.
A good signing for Warrington.

I thought he was good at Wigan and Hull, was sad when he left us. He'll only improve with coaching and as much as it pains me to say it, will turn out great for you, I'm quite sure.

I'm not sure on this one. Rubber Duckie never gave us a Ted Rogers 3,2,1 clue regarding this signing? Can't be any good then

Bit confused as to why you went for him, considering the Jones-Bishop rumours, who I rate higher than Russell. Still, he should have improved his game whilst down under so you could have a very good signing there.

Type "Matthew Russell Gold Cost titans" into you know where and there's a nine minute vid.

Looks very handy albeit it at reserve grade level.

BJB could just be rumours and this signing could pour water on the flames of speculation.

On that video he looks really lively, strong in collision too.

Also, on 5:29 in the clip: That is the most forward I've ever seen a pass thrown! Shocker!

He can replace Riley on the wing

From looking at that video he pops up on the left wing position a lot funnily enough. He looks very strong and quick with great footwork. If he gets in the side the forwards will love the dumy half work he appears to do too. Perhaps this is about generating competition. Riley has had no real competition for the left wing spot and presumably without this signing Ratchford would have no competition for the full back spot. Good signing for me.

Hopefully we'll get a full season out of Rhys Evans next year which will be like another new signing. Creates competition for the centres too.

Well, that's out of left field. Probably the first signing made in the past 5 years that has not been mentioned on here at least once.

Hopefully there are one or two more surprises to come. It's so much better that way then so called "in the knows" don't mention it. Must have something to do with their promise of "Won't say a word" whilst tapping the nose.

No-one saw this one coming. Tony Smith keeps his cards very close to his chest. I wouldn't even speculate whether there's anyone else to come.

Thinking about it for next year we have 11 players signed contract extensions, we've had Asotasi, England and Russell come in replacing Moz, Carvell & Brett. Tyke & Williams will be replaced by squad players being promoted along with Penny returning. All in all not bad and anything else in a bonus.
Anyone else heard Bridge to Widnes? It's only been mentioned to me by Widnes fans.
