Robinson, fages, smith, myler ..... Anyone else spot the pattern?
We need a scrum half with a kicking game, so that rules out Myler and Robinson (I'd rather have Sneyd than both of these anyway).
Do you think Wigan would sell Smith?
Fages is even younger, less experienced than Sneyd, but he lots of potential, again at the moment I'd rather have Sneyd.
The lack of good young British half's is the reason why it is worth paying 100K for a player who could be atop half for the next team years.
Bateman who had played less game than than Sneyd went for a similar amount to Wigan and has proved a good signing, I'd imagine if Wigan had to sell Burgess who would command a decent fee also. I'd rather spend 100K on a young British player then sign an average overseas player like we have done in the past.
The fee doesn't effect the club as it will be out of Pearsons pocket.
I dont see why Hull and Salfords fan are arguing, you have 2 good halfs and one with potential and get some money, while we get a half than we have lacks for years.
