Hypothetical Scenario.

Tony Smith sits the all the players down on his arrival at the club and asked whether anybody does not want to be at the club.

Maybe a certain player/players indicate that they would like to leave.

Should the club keep hold of this player ( or players ) despite this or should the club look to offload this player ( or players ) in the best deal that they can get at this time

This is purely hypothetical but if this event happened I would like Tony Smith to get rid of players who did not want to be at the club ( as Paul Johnson said in his interview by Mr Skentlebury last week ) rather than have them stay here.

Strange he wasnt called "one trick Mick" for three seasons though.... he only seemed to be called this when the rumour of him coming to Warrington surfaced.....!!!

how odd....

If it does happen (which I don't think it will), I don't think it will be a player swap. We may lose the player and keep the £150k to offer someone next year.

Of course that means Wigan have to offload someone elsewhere

they won't need to they'll just break the cap and get away with it again

tbh if this rumour is true it isnt the end of the world gleesons contract runs out this year its pretty clear he doesnt want a renewal might aswell cash in now goulding is a decent prospect but has time and although i dont like mathers he will provide cover for fullback as reardon might not be available even when fit

Mathers was good when he was at Leeds! So good infact he got a NRL contract and im sure Tony Smith will get the best from him again. Lets not slag him off too much before we have even seen him play for us

He got the name one trick Mick whilst at Saints so it has been longer than 3 seasons.
