thats his wages from the RFU for 3 years according to a report in the Daily Telegraph. No wonder he wants to go, that is almost as much as a non playing reserve at the Lactics must get paid

He ain't got that long left in his career! Or do you see something in the relative strengths of the 2 nations' squads that no-one else does?
He'd have a better chance switching to cricket!

We'd have a chance if the RFL didn't weigh everything in favour of the Aussies. Yet again if we make the tri -nations final we'll play 5 games in a row and the Aussies would be on thier 3rd game in 5 weeks!

i dont hold any bad feelings for andy. he has come to the point where he can see the end of his career as a player and wants some financial security.and a million pounds will give him just that. this way we all win. union are happy farrell is happy and wigan at least get a decent financian settlement.

I dont hold anything against andy, i was a bit angry at first the fact they've been dragging it on for so long its becoming a bit tiring, but i seriously hope he does well for himself in union despite what anyone else says i wish him all the best, so what if hes doing it for the money?

I am irritated by the whole affair. What an awful way to end his time at Wigan - shuffling down to Watford (one of the most horrid places on earth) for the kick for touch filthy money.
I hope he gets injured, and takes their cash without contributing anything to the enemy.
He has been a great servant of Wigan and The Greatest Game, and deserved a better ending.
