I’m just glad he’s decided against retiring.

LMS to retire at the end of the year, as a Wigan fan, he’s been an outstanding signing for saints, a player everyone loves to hate but would’ve liked to have on their team, all the best to him. But just hope he bows out as a runner up and nothing more

Good Friday?

Didn’t play.

Nor did he in the CC semi last year or the DW game last year.

He’s a massive in for saints.

I know that in the last game Wigan did a number on him but did you watch the return fixture at Robin Park back in April? He was outstanding, Wigan literally couldn't handle him. I remember RG saying afterwards that he was unstoppable. I'm just curious as to which games you've seen him play in that's all.

Seems like Warrington did a decent job on Farrimond too. I believe it was Ratchford that come on and changed the game.

I'm going on Sunday, should be a really good game.

I didn't see him play earlier in the season from what you have said had I done so I might have had a different opinion.

Wigan academy have never “done” a number on him. Everytime he has played Wigan he has been the best prop on the pitch by a long way. Its just Wigan fans who are too bitter to give any kind of credit to anyone who doesn’t play for Wigan whilst saints fans have no problem in admitting Farrimond was the best player on the pitch in both games.

He wasn't in the last match. By the way, if you are referring to my comment, I am not saying he isn't a good player I just wasn't convinced, on what I have seen, that he is guaranteed to make it at the top level. I shall take more notice going forward and comment accordingly. By the way, if you look back at my previous comments, I have praised many Saints players so don't make inaccurate and sweeping comments.
