Seems a long shot to me and i think he will be too old by then and want megabucks

Very much a long shot,but bums on seats he would provide that aspect if nothing else.

Long shot for me.

he'd be 34 then am i right?

All depends on the circumstances, if he could still play to a decent level id have him provided his contract wasn't didnt inhibit a current talent being retained or purchased. I think he's the kinda player that could draw crowds if not just for a swan song year.

Bit hypocritical of posters so far, slating one of the greatest players in the world because he's 34, yet the same fans most likely want Lockers who will be 35 in November to play another season, our fans really do beggar belief sometimes, i know which player i'd rather have playing at the age of 35 and he isn't Andy Farrells brother in law

Should have put this on the other thread lol

Perhaps i should have clarifed my statement,i think its a long shot Wigan would pay the sort of wages he'd command,very much a long shot too.

Lets be fair its agent talk nothing more he wont come to SL he'll get his swansong in the NRL.

Unless there is a salary cap rules change before then, we already have two marquee players and one of them would have to leave or accept a pay cut by 2020 to make this happen.

I don't know about hypocritical, but if you compare Lockers' attitude to the club with SBW's to the Roosters...

And if you really want an ageing Aussie/Kiwi to fritter half the salary cap away on, I'd rather have Paul Gallen than SBW any day.

I wouldn't want either, not a fan of Gallen and SBW can't be trusted to stay anywhere longer than 5 minutes, yes SBW would no doubt put bums on seats but what we need are players who are going to stay for a decent period of time. As for Lockers, it's not like i've got anything against him, i just find it ironic that certain fans think we can't exist without him yet any player who we are rumoured to be linked with who is older than 31 get's slagged off to the hilt, it just makes me laugh
