Not having a go at you.Just my opinion.You say no one at club has asked him to go. Well we will have to differ on this as we are all aware this with Hanson has been going on for months not once has any one from club come out and poured cold water on this.Yet Green gets in paper regarding leaving and within hours SW is out saying he is going no where.What would you read from this in his position.Only playing devils advocate

I'm not sure H is reaching his peak, I think the last 3/4 seasons may have been his peak. The reason I say this is the amount of games he's played in what is already at 28 a long professional career, the appearance that the injuries he suffers take longer to recover now and this will only get worse, and the fact that he is permanently crocked on his wrist that will only get worse and worse.
I'm not saying he hasn't got plenty left in the tank or a lot to offer at Wigan, or that I would wnat to see him go, I just don't think his next contract will see him at the peak of his career, his last contratc has seen to that. Therefore, if a mutually agreeable and beneficial deal was made for all parties I don't think you can criticise anyone at this point for making that move.
Personally, I would have offered him a two year deal at a slightly higher salary to recognise his seniority and performance level, rather than just take up the option as we did. Then, if we felt we didn't need him/he was declining after the next 12 months then we could still sell him, we'd have paid a slightly higher salary this year but can compensate by getting a fee equivalent to that in return so there would be no loss from letting him see out his current deal.

If I was Hanson I would take the offer from Salford, he is not going to get a better offer from Wigan. I agree our club is sending signals to him to go, and I think we are wrong to let such a good servant go with out some fight to keep him and we will miss him for sure

Rubbish. Lockers has played as long and this season has been more injury prone than Hansen. Lets sell Lockers as well shall we?
Hansen crocked? You were at the grand final right? How crocked did he look then?

Therefore nothing. Your argument is based on nothing.

Just read where it says he still had two years left. Is it true or have i got it wrong thinking he had only one year left?
Also how about his benefit will Salford cover the loss of that?

you are right, it was just a one year option. Salford are going to compensate him for his missed testimonial. He will probably be better off!
