But Ratchford, despite a dodgy moment early on, had a very good game and deservedly got the MOTM. Not sure where he'd play for Wigan, but I'd definitely be happy to see him join the club.
Thought Currie had a cracking game ????????

Doesn't that potentially cause a problem in itself? Especially when you consider our need to retain existing talent?

Centre would work for me. Or backup full back if Sam is injured or wants to move around.

Could be a very top player, he has pace to burn for a big guy. It will be interesting to see if Wire can hold onto him, maybe the marquee rule will be helpful. Did Wigan try to sign him as a junior CPW?

He chose Warrington over Wigan, they 100% tried to sign him.

Ratchford surely is a half or full back?
I know McRae played him almost everywhere at Salford but at Wire he seems to be favoured for those positions.

He's not needed at half back as we've a surplus.
I can't recall him playing centre for Wire but he could well have done.
At present we have Sarginson, Gelling and Thornley who are all centres. If Thornley doesn't make it back and Sargy goes for 2017 I'd rather bring an academy player through or sign from either SL or NRL.

Which ever position we might fancy Ratchford for I'm sure we can do better than him if we plan ahead with recruitment selection.

He's a very good utility player. There is a guy called Mitch Auberson who plays for Sydney Roosters and he is worth his weight in gold, Ratchford is very similar.
