I know its just board talk an not even a rumour but I would be very disappointed if we signed Ah Van.

Matt King on the other hand is class. Would love to see him in a Wigan shirt. If we manage to resign Carmont for a year as rumoured, I would be extremely happy with our backline next year:

1. Sam Tomkins
2. Josh Charnley
3. Matt King
4. George Carmont
5. Pat Richards

With Darrell Goulding, Stefan Marsh, Matty Russell, Ryan King etc to back up
NO HE ISN"T!!!!!!! Not sure we should sign him but he is not terrible!!!
He's about the only good thing at Bratfut!

No idea where you got that from about Ah Van because from what I've seen he looks goodm

Im not sure AhVan would fit in with our type of play maybe he would but yes hes a good winger and IMO Bratfurt will do very well indeed if they hold onto him!

If Ah Van is available we should definately be interested.

If you look at every position, numbers 1 to 12 on the Wires team, each player in that respective position is just about the highest paid in Super League, I'll concede Lockers bucks the trend at number 13.

Has anyone ever seen ah van defend? Probably not because he cant. Bradford signing imports like im and herbert are the reason they are in the position they are in now. Everytime i've seen bradford play he has been out of position for many trys, I would be absolutely gutted if he was a wigan player.

Sorry, you have lost me! What has Lockers got to do with Wire :conf:

I think that the point being made is that from 1-12, at Warrington, they're likely to be commanding the highest pay per position of any team in the Superleague. It's just likely that Lockers is likely to command the highest pay of any number 13 in SL.

Warrington MUST be over the Salary Cap but would be very surprised if numbers 1-12 in their squad were the highest paid right throughout SL, 2-Chris Riley, 5-Joel Monaghan, 7-Richard Myler, but, other players above the 1-13 will definately be bigger earners. It all needs looking into by the right people in my opinion and the the vast majority of others, they are getting away with it far to easy.
