You must be mad you must be taken stright away to Prestwich for urgent treatment{only jokeing]

He is not good enough to play fullback, very poor with high balls and always out of postion.

Exactly , Wigan are renowned for always having a brilliant world class full back. St Hilare is not.
St. Hilaire is an archetypical cast-off. It surprises me he's lasted in SL this long, and in no circumstances must we contemplate offering him a contract. That really WOULD be a big backwards step.

However it's clear we're going to have a problem at full-back if we don't act soon.

Having weighed up all the pros and cons, unless we've someone special waiting in the wings who no-one has yet considered, I think we could do worse than sign Fitzpatrick. He's a local lad, he's a decent, solid player, he can score tries and he won't be too expensive. More important than any of this maybe, he desperately wants to play for Wigan (and that's something we've badly lacked this season).

He wouldn't have been my first choice, but unless we've been secretly negotiating with Mark McClinden or Matty Bowen - which we've clearly not or the rumour-hounds would have got onto it by now - I think we should offer him a deal.

I hope I am wrong but I have a feeling Richards will be our FB next season.

I have not been impressed with any of the players we have been linked with this past couple of weeks as our potential FB :- Briscoe, Hodgeson or Fitzpatrick.

However its getting to the stage I'd take any of them just so as to see Richards back on the wing where I think he is far more effect for our attack.
