can u honestly see morley coming to play with this team as it is right now? every top team in this country is going to be after his signature and there are more attractive places to be playing than wigan right now
The only positive comment I can think of at the minute is that Wigan might be the only top team with a slot on their 20/20 quota.

If he wants to come back to the UK he might not have much choice as the other clubs won't be able to sign him even if they want to.

wouldn`t want farrar to take over personally.. something about the whole back room staff seems different ( not for the better ) this year..??
can't say i'd b too thrilled with farrar taking over either...don't know what it is but woulda thought by now that he'd have had a word with dennis about some of our tactics (wingers running in field @ forwards, trying to go through the middle all the time)

apart from chris anderson who else is there?

would also like to point out here that i believe dennis should be given some time to turn things around but having seen the performance tonight it needs to be quickly otherwise we can forget the top 6!

don't think that at this point there would be any problem if we could see an improvement in performances from week to week or if we were playing well and genuinely coming up against teams playing better but we seem to be making the same mistakes every week and we've been making a lot of average teams look very good so far this season

could he be doing a sonny bill and trying to get better money in Oz and if one of the other top teams wants him i'm sure they'll find a way to dump some players and free some space. after sonny bill he's gotta be one of the most sought after players

If there is anything the rumours his club will want to offload him to make way for Mason and off-loaded players don't coimmand high salaries over there. They ar enot in a position to push the price up.

My theory is that he will want to do what many NRL players do. Come to the UK to earn a retirement package playing in SL for longer than they could manage in the NRL and on higher wages than they could get in Australia.

When he is finished in the UK he will retire back to Australia like David Furner etc have done.

He is no different than any other player in the NRL in that he can see the wages on offer in the UK are a nice way to get some cash behind you before stopping playing.

That is the only reason I can thinbk of him coming back here as he obviously loves the place.

:( Like I've said before Betts is'nt good enough, and we don't have the time to wait for him to develope, he's not a top coach, on tonights showong our new signings ar'nt up to it either, a very disapointing display, aspinwal very lucky to be on the pitch, brown not good enough, o'loughlin overwweight? steroids?, dallas none existent, need i go on, this cannot continue otherwise our club will surely be on the slippery slope, like I said before, 'we need a new coach' and MO needs to retire quickly, and DW please find a top professional coach, and a fewdecent players. Please.

I dont think Morley gives us the right leadership qualities - his discipline is too poor. We nned an experienced captain - someone like Fittler or maybe even LOckyer?

I am agreeing with you again Mike. Morely is not a leader but he would be better as a prop than what we have right now.

It may all be academic anyway as a post on RLFANS says his club won't release him.

Who the hell thinks one player (Morley) would change what happened tonight? We were beaten all ends up all over the park. We made 8/20 sets completed in the first half. You may not blame Betts for that but were was the change in the second half? Face facts we are in a crisis. For god's sake this is wigan

to early for me to call for heads.. but if we lose 25th, then my guess he is gone irrelevent of the result next week..unfairly.. imho.. yes..

maybe the whole farrell code switch will cover how horrible we have played for the last 4 weeks!!
So its more of adigrace to lose to the Saints than to Leigh. Tell me what do you look for first the Warriors score or the Saints.

You sound more like a saints hater than a Warrior fan.

If Leigh turns us over on Friday excpect Betts to go on Sun.
