If Richards isn't a world class winger then there aren't any because he's on a par with any other wingman in the world at the moment imo. He's a different type of winger to the 2 others i'd put up in his class in Vatuvai and Morris but he's an equal to the pair of them imo.
He's a huge bloke with good pace who finishes trys for fun via various methods. If he still played in Australia now he'd be a regular in the Australian national side.
I honestly believe he's proved he's that good.

As good as he is i wouldnt call him world class.What i do like about him, as you have said. Is for a big unit he has pace to burn.
He seems a solid player who does the simple things well.And his goal kicking is excellent. |

Richards is the best wingman super league has seen since Jason Robinson IMO and even better than Wigan greats such as Dallas and Carney (Narrowly). Name a better super league wingman than Richards?
If Richards was playing in the NRL he would be staight into the austrialian team. Hes as good as Morris and better than Tuiquiri, and it is only austrialian arrogence that means he is not selected for those teams, in the same way Trent Barrett was snubbed when he was in Super League.
If Richards went back to Aus next year he'd walk into the origin side and test side IMO just like Barrett did. Just hope he never decides to go back though!

understandably Joel Monaghan will get some verbal stick from the opposition fans .......... but maybe you wanna remember before you start banding around chants and so forth the RFL have issued a stern warning over Foul, Abusive and Racist chants and that any Club failing to adhere to this will be subject to Disciplinary matters and possible club fine
at your peril so be it .....!

Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.
Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36121.jpg |

It has no relevance to this topic whatsoever but still i cant believe the points made about Pat Richards. He was top try and points scorer this year broke records and got MOS.
He IS world class he is THE BEST player in SL as the STATISTICS NOT OPINIONS clearly show. Wire fans need to take the blinkers off and realise this.
