Re: Bevan French - STAYING

:oops: I know you can’t say much but the marquee player, will he fix a problem we have? The plan is Luke Thompson pal, its pretty common knowledge now that he's our main target I have seen things online from people close to Luke Thompson and his family implying it’s a load of rubbish he wants to com...

Re: James McDonnell

I’ve not any inside info but just before he was picked for England Wardle was strongly linked with Wigan. He then gets picked for England somewhat out of the blue, so he is highly rated by our set up in Wane. No inside info at all but the way things work I would suggest he signed for Wigan for 2023...

Nice signing if true, IMO. Can cover full back, wing and centre plus can kick goals. Would allow us to stop putting 2nd rows at centre, should injuries strike!
Not good enough for us, I’d be massively disappointed if this was true.

Re: James McDonnell

Not really, Cant say I wasn't wrong can I? I said he was staying, he isn't. I said Williams was coming, he didn't. Whatever I post is accurate at the time of posting, I as do many other people understand things move quickly and can change. I like to post on here to keep people in the loop with what...

Re: Luke Thompson

"Home Grown" shouldn't just be academy prospects though because that only works for Wigan & Saints. For example, if Huddersfield offered Pryce the marquee but Newcastle are giving the same or even less money, where is the incentive to stay at a "mid tier" team ? Whereas let'...

Re: Luke Thompson

Oh well they've changed that since the original discussion/plans. How stupid. What is the incentive from that rule? Ah well, point still stands but to a lesser degree - I don't think we need to worry about the salary cap, just be mindful that it might cost some squad players to be replaced by acade...

Re: Jason Lino

Absolutely no inside knowledge on the French contract situation and he may not even know himself but I get the feeling from his interviews that he’s leaving, he seems to be doing a hell of a lot of thanking the fans. I hope he stays but if not I do think his big wage could be better spent than on a ...

With Mago and Ellis on the bench.
That would probably be the best front row we’ve had in years
Byrne and Cooper would be ahead of Mago for me
