Re: One player for 2016
Josh M from KR
decent winger and good kicker he is worth it on that value alone. He could also do some kick returns to take the pressure off sam.
Watkins or moon would be great but i think a kicker is the most important thing for us

Re: One player for 2016
I rate Elima as a player but I can't stand him.
He's an absolute coward. All mouth and no action. He's always picked on the smaller players but only delivered cheap shots against blokes he knows would decimate him in a fight.
I'm glad McIlorum gave him a smack.
I'd go for Sam Tagataese. I've spoken about him a few times on this forum because he's a player I rate highly. He's a big Samoan prop who can put in some massive shots (No shoulder charges, mostly.) and he won't back down from a fight. I think he's been quiet this season, but we should still make a move for him. He's no Mose Masoe; he's mobile. Very big but very lean. He's off contract, so he'd be a realistic signing and one we could definitely pull off.
I'm probably going to get slated for this, but I'd love to see Pettybourne back in the Cherry & White. He could of had a stellar season in his second year. He probably won't come back, since he is doing well in the NRL again and he's staying for his father, too.

Re: One player for 2016
Ah.
Have you got a rope I can lend? :conf:
It would definitely be Chris Hill.
He need a new centre and kicker but Chris Hill is World Class. He could give our forward drive a massive boost. I doubt he's happy at Warrington at the minute.

Re: One player for 2016
I played with Chris as a kid and he is a great lad and player but he was a bit small (believe it or not) no superleague club was interested in him so he went to leigh and I think he lost heart in wigan from then on because the players they had at prop in my eyes wasn't as good as him but can't keep everyone as I have been toldRC wrote:Ah.

Re: One player for 2016
All 3 of our wingers can't kick goals but they're streets ahead of Manilato as wingers as I see it.
If Wigan want to replace Budgie with a winger, I'd go for Justin Carney before Mantilato.

Re: One player for 2016
We don't need a winger for 2016, we've Charnley and Manfredi.
Centre might be a problem if Sarginson doesn't recover soon. Gildart played well v Wire but a continued run in the first team might put too much pressure on him too soon.
On the face of it though we have three centre now, we can't exclude Gildart from future reckoning.
Props wise we seem to be rumoured to be losing Patrick with Burke returning from HKR.
What's happening to Greenwood though?
Never heard of his future mentioned anywhere
