said it on another thread was Stef from anywhere other than Wigan non of the fans would want him.

Only half we should even think about looking at in SL is Chase at Cas.

Was thinking the same Rangi Chase in a Wigan side would be awsomoe to watch.

Chase would take up quota spot that we won't have available.

He is also not available but we do not need a half, potential long term target though.

Why, who else are we signing? We have a space now, and strong rumours that Hoff might go...

It reduces by one next year does it not?

If Carmont retires we will need a top quality replacement from the NRL

You want us to sign Ratchford but don't think Tom Briscoe would be a good investment?

There's a mile difference in class and ability.

I don't think bringing out the cheque book for a player who can only play on the wing when we've got Goulding, Charnley and hopefully Pat for a good few years yet would be a good move. Plus Briscoe isn't that good either he's a good player at best and that's all we need on the wing.

Ratchford won't cost a fee, won't be on big wages and can cover a number of positions well.

He'd be a sensible signing and as long as we brought others in with him I'd be very happy.

If Briscoe was our marque signing I'd be gutted as he's not a marque level player and we don't need another winger.

Briscoe will move into the centre birth sooner rather than later.

I think he has the most advanced skill set of all the young halves knocking about.

Who knows really?

Until he does I wouldn't sign him seeing he's never played there.

He has, he was selected for his country in that position.

Frightening isn't it.
Briscoe played most of his junior/academy rugby at centre and has been eased into the first team on the wing. He is a first class player and would be an ideal partner for Josh Charnley. He also has the one thing you can't really coach, pace, and a lot of it.

I think though he was hung out to dry vs the Aussies by some shocking inside defence from both a very immobile Peacock and a union bound not interested Smith who left him isolated and this has affected his confidence and also development.

He is getting his confidence back though and I am sure he will be better for it long term.

He reminds me of the closest thing I have seen to an English Adam McDougal. Great pace, good feet and real deceptive power.

I really rate Tom Briscoe, very good player, good head on young shoulders.
