A lot better than Ratchford in my opinion. Hope we get him.

He would be a fantastic signing! Him alongside Finch with the pace we've got out wide would be terrifying for the opposition. He certainly won't be at Cas his whole career. With due respect to them he's too good to be there. It's a distinct possibility that Cas' loss in the semi final might be the push he needed to leave.

Would simply love to see him in cherry and white. A class act.

Rangi would be a good role model for Sam and Joe imo. Give him a 3 year contract and by then they will be ready to take the reigns.
My hopeful source said that Chase was to replace Burrow who, being from Pontefract and having a sports injuries clinic there, was going to Cas

Chase might be a Moran; Great as the only big fish in a pond but less so in a bigger pond with lots of big fish.

Possibly, but i don't think so. The thing with Moran was he was asked to be an organizer at Wigan and he was never that. He was more a free spirit like Sam. He got drained of confidence quickly when the team wasn't going well and never got it back. I think Chase would go great at Wigan, but there's always a risk with any signing.

The only time I've seen him play outside of Cas is for the Exiles and he was dynamite in that game.

No doubt Rangi is a huge talent the way I would describe him is as a cheaper Benji Marshal.

That said I really dont think we should be signing a half back we have Finch and the 7 should be given to Mellor its as simple as that, Mellor is a super talent and he is only 20!

Sign players where we need them not for the sake of it!

Seems Rangi's picked up a 2 year suspended prison sentence so he might struggle to get a visa renewal to get back into U.K.
Picked this up off Redvee, make of it what you will.

In such a key position as 6 & 7 IL will be looking to a Wiganer, Academy Graduate or exceptional import. RC is qualified for the 3rd but I'd be surprised if IL invested so much of our SC pot on him.
