Re: Harry Smith
Harry has been voted player of the series and deservedly so. He looks to have made another step forward since the GF and it bodes well for next season. I don't think he's going anywhere. We should secure him on a great contract and he could well become a modern Wigan great.

Re: Mikey Lewis omitted from England's final Test squad as George Williams returns
Lewis has talent and attitude and has done really well this year. However, I seem to remember that he was the 'leader' in missed tackles in SL last season. If that's the case, there is no way that Waney would choose him ahead of George, a great tackler, if George was playing anywhere near his best. ...

Re: Owen Farrell
Thanks you two, just what I wanted. Much as I like the Idea of Owen joining us and being a great success, I can't see it happening. I assume that those pushing for him to sign for us are expecting him to break his contract with Saracens rather than compete the season with them? If he joined us witho...

Re: Owen Farrell
Having watched him closely again last night I just don't see him being big enough for a 13 despite all his other qualities. I'm sure he's bigger than e.g. Shorrocks but he can't be more than 14 stone which would be borderline. I know lots of people will say that our Faz (Ginger Pearl) isn't very big...

Saw a rumour on another site that the injury Abbas picked up in the final is a serious one and he'll miss the start of next season. Can anybody confirm or deny? Would be a shame after such a great season but I suppose we do have cover with Douglas/Eckersley.

Re: Seven Betfred Super League clubs awarded Grade A status
Have I understood this correctly in that there is little point in London spending a load of cash on new players (who probably are not available anyway) so that they don't finish bottom next season? It seems that they could win the league and would still be relegated. Great incentive IMG.

Re: Regan grace
I hadn't realised that he'd not played all year because he's not recovered from the achilles injury. Not a good bet until he proves that he's made a full recovery. As a player who depends so much on his pace it would be a gamble to sign him at this stage. I'm not convinced he was better than Marshal...

Re: Eseh Jr
Looks very promising. Well done to the club for beating the opposition to this one. Weeks ago there was talk of him signing and then being loaned back to Wakefield so I don't know if that may still be the case.

Re: Owen Farrell
If we could get Radley I'm sure we'd be willing to 'encourage' somebody else to leave to make space. I can't imagine that we'd have put ourselves in this position if we had a realistic chance of signing him. Another good signing, whoever it is, would really make this a happy off-season though
