Next Season Forwards
Next Season Forwards
Batenan and Faz are locked on starting SRs. The LF? The owd lad from Widnes did well tonight but realistically are you then looking at Lockers or JTomkins for LF.

If we do keep SOL on the playing register next season he will have to be there just on pay as you play terms and he will not like that at all.cpwigan wrote:Batenan and Faz are locked on starting SRs.

Err, why? Unless his contract is up or he retires he will be on the terms as his contract states.ian.birchall wrote:If we do keep SOL on the playing register next season he will have to be there just on pay as you play terms and he will not like that at all.cpwigan wrote:Batenan and Faz are locked on starting SRs.

Is his contract up?
Re: Next Season Forwards
No. I think the expect next season to be his last playing wise before moving onto the coaching staff full time. I would send him on a sabbatical in 2018 to immerse himself in NRL coaching then bring it back to make Wigan better in 2019 and beyond.

Micky Mac may see some time at 13 next year. The way Sam Powell played tonight makes him difficult to drop and Micky Mac can smash people regardless of playing at 9 or 13.

Re: Next Season Forwards
IMO with the restrictions of the wage cap and Lockers availability this season through reoccurring injuries, you cannot justify keeping him on as a player even if only 100k of his wage goes towards the cap.
Sean is my favourite player but this season has shown it's time for a full time coaching role.

Need to offload mossop,clubb,oloughlin and Joel Tomkins. We have more than enough front row forwards cant see why we are chasing a French prop. Money would be better spent on a top quality back, goal kicker and a back row forward
Re: Next Season Forwards
I think Clubb will go. Mossop we might have to pay somebody to take him away. Joel is a huge earner, he will not walk! Probably his last contract.
I would keep Lockers as a player. Fit, he is still class but there is an IF. We need to appoint the next captain in 2017.

Re: Next Season Forwards
I do know SOL is on a contract but was stating my belief that he is not worth his cost/playing time anymore. If he got his wages only when he plays then he will be worth his £s even £s+.
