Wigan should be a club that great foreign players want to come to, and that is slipping under SW!
Which other SL teams are currently signing 'great' foreign players? The answer is none because of the money in the NRL!

mmmmm let me think, and then put egg in your face:-

1. Rangi chase-where is he going?

2. Francis Meli-where is he going?

3. How many players do Salford have going to them?? - How much space in the salary cap will we have end of season, and still do nothing with it.

4. HKR, Salford and Warrington between them have quite a few players going to them.
Rangi Chase was playing for Cas, he is an England international for some crazy reason, he hasn't co from the NRL and I personally don't see him as class, albeit better than Green.

You are trying to put egg on my face and the 2 names you come up with are Francis Meli and Rangi Chase!? You said 'Great' foreign players did you not? Let me break this to you gently, FRANCIS MELI and RANGI CHASE are NOT 'GREAT' foreign players. Meli has been a good SL winger at best and Chase on his day is a good SL player. 'Great' foreign players are Smith, Cronk, Thaiday, Slater, Marshall, Gallen!!

I am going to end this conversation now because clearly you are not that knowledgeable after reading that previous post.

No hard feelings! It's good to talk!

Junior Sa'u outstanding player, Asotasi outstanding player.. Even London brought in Soward for half a season. Costigan outstanding player Chris Keating very good also, Wyman who ripped us to shreds in the WCC. And next season hasnt started yet.
The phrase was 'great', none of them are 'great'.

We should give Hampshire a go at 6. His pace, creativity and sheer rawness in the game will add a different dimension to our attack. Jeez we were so predictable and one dimensional tonight. The most exciting creative player on the pitch was Andy Powell for the two offloads he managed to get away, and that's because it's not something we expect from a Wigan forward at present!

Chase is a match winner!

RE Green, a righty playing on the left because Wane bought two righty half backs! Not Greens fault. Now imagine Smith on the right and Chase on the left :roll:

Not selecting Hampshire on the bench is crazy BTW

SW signings on average have been very poor.
I never said they haven't!

CP if Green was to play on the right do you reckon he would become a much better player in a Wigan shirt? Would it effect his kicking game (which has been dire) dramatically? His defence (likewise dire)? His passing maybe so. If he is a righty and been played on left no that's not his fault, but a Wigan standard 6 should at least be able to adapt his game over a period of time (a full season) enough that it enables him to kick some decent footy, and look at least like he wants to play for the shirt.

lol,

Rangi chase is a great player. He is only limited by a poor Cas side. He creates just about all they do, and I would have him anyday over Green.

And as for my knowledge, get a clue, look at all the other posts by different people who are stating players going to other clubs. Yes, theres egg on your face!

Green is another Mcgoldrick a utility man playing stand off less the bad attitude, crap haircut and tattoos.
Money talks and i would rather have a committed player than a money grabber
