Faz is contracted to the Rfu and Saracens, unlike Rads who was contracted by noone and no money involved.

i dnt think so dad

MONEY TALKS

Farrel does not need the money now, for that matter neither does Rads

While he was playing for us all those years boy and man, are you saying he was not loyal
Wigan is and always will be a town of Cherry & White

Well boys and girls Rads as come back in our darkest hour .Well done to Rads , but he should not take the place of young Chris Ashton who is definatley a star in the making.
If Rads is fit (a big if) he is a better full back than Ashton so if you want the best man out on the park it stands to reason he takes Ashtons place.

We are in a relegation fight and being nice to Ashton when a better player becomes available is the sort of decision that will get us relegated for sure.

There isnt a RL fan walking that can say Faz wasnt loyal. He never gave less than 100%. He was a great captain aswell, what a motivator, he carried the team a long time. I just think its a pity he went when he did.
Most famous team in the world playing the greatest game in the universe!

At the risk of being public enemy no 1 I think any player who asks to leave from their contract early whether it's is to RU or another RL side has a question mark against their loyalty.

When Harris left Wire ages ago when he had a long contract to go to Leeds I thought that was poor back then.

I think it was poor of Farrell to leave while under contract in the same way. And even worse of ML to let him.

Just a thought DaveO. When Faz left he knew he was facing a lay off for injury. Maybe he had this in mind when deciding to switch to the less physically demanding code thereby extending his playing years? And freeing us some salary cap space

Noble has said in the post tonight that Ashton is playing so well he can play anywhere in the three quarters and has said he will not be snubbed. So it doesn't look like Rads is taking Ashton's place...
Sounds exactly like that to me! Rads to full back taking Ashton's slot, Ashton to somewhere else in the 3/4.

Well he had just won Man of Steel and Golden Boot awards and the injury was not a recurrance of the old one but on the other knee. I can't say I see anything to suggest he was washed up by a long way in RL.

Letting the best player in the country and arguably in the world (not eveyone agreed he deserved the golden bot) leave months after he won these awards was madness. You don't let class leave and expect to carry on as if nothing had changed. It wss a huge mistake by Mo.
