I've been questioning how realistic it is that Warrington would give a 2 year extension to a player who turns 34 in July. But stranger thinks have happened at the club ie, Latu being given a contract despite Price being very clear to the board about not wanting him.
Maybe your mates right ? Time will tell
I guess that depends on the salary. I can't see Ratchford accepting massively reduced terms unless he couldn't get a contract elsewhere.
I think Powell sees a lot of value in Ratchford. I think he's probably the right sort of positive character to have around the club, and Powell tends to get the best out of those sort of players even when they're at the end of their careers (McShane?). It will make an easier transition for Riley and give us experienced cover in many other positions, even if it means sacrificing a bit of pace. Who (apart from Powell) thought Jordan Turner could make a decent job of it on the wing for Cas last year?
