Great at counting toothpicks as well I believe.

He's been a massive player for you and maybe difficult to replace......

He can count toothpicks, playing cards and his Warrington grand final wi.......oh wait, scrap the last one.

No doubt about that. His best days have been at Wigan and whilst he's not the player he was he's still worth a raft of points to us.

It's probably more emotional to see him leave then Tomkins in a lot of ways. He's been playing for the first team longer, had a stinker of a first year here but came out the other side to become one of the fans favourite ever overseas players and seems a really top bloke. He even found time on Saturday in his post match interview to thank all superleague fans (not just Wigan) for making his time so special.

I do feel the time is probably right though.

Either he's a strange, strange man or he's trying to convey that he thinks it's all a conspiracy and his team have been set up by the officials. Ian Millward used to do it too.

Agree about the Richards try - I thought the whistle had gone.

I can't think of one unsavoury incident in all his time here, never one to start / attract trouble, was hard but fair. A genuinely nice bloke on and off the field, he even had time to give Monaghan a tap on the shoulder just prior to him being stretchered off. From reading these forums he's one of the very few Wigan players that opposition supporters like and respect.

I too thought it was forward - don't know why as I was at the other side of the ground. Think it was the way all the Wire players just stopped.

Farewell Pat - I will miss him very much.

He was thinking of home
A Fosters in one hand, ball in the other and you can't run in flip flops

Have a look on Utube, 'Pat Richards-Wigan Rugby League', and really enjoy the six minutes of Pat at his best. Thanks to 'Wiganer 1983' for ALL the rugby he's put on there for us to enjoy and remember.

Good old Bilko, he's the MAN.

Did anyone else notice Morley's challenge on Green on 47 minutes? I'm not sure on it, but if you still have it on SKY+ have a look.

Look at Paul Wood's tackle on Sam, 59
minutes. Drop's his knee into the back of Sam's leg when he's on the floor.

Still have it ??? I've still got the 2010 GF on Sky+

I was a bit confused for both Pat and Blake Green's tries. Neither of them did much of a celebration! I didn't know whether either were tries or not so just stood there bemused.
