I'm no expert on the value of players as currency but surely 1x Gleeson does not equal 1x Goulding and 1x Mathers?

Year one he was pretty devestating IMO.
Since then his form has dipped badly. He's never had pace but what pace he did have is starting to dissapear.

It's a real odd one IMO.

Now that's OTT, say what you want about his lifestyle, commitment and so on, but to say he's not performed is drivel, he's been our best attacking player alongside Briers for years.

He was regarded as arguably the best centre in the world when he came to us. do i need to say anymore.

What you think Wigan should pay us money on top?

PS - We'll keep Higham, hes turning out just fine, thanks for the concern

yeah, hes led you to your worst start in super league, turned out fine!!

seriously, all seemed well in his honeymoon year at wigan also....then we could see past his one trick. It will get frustrating for you guys.


Dont say you havent been warned (which is co-incidentally what the saints fans were saying to us when we signed him )

If people over-hyped him then that's not his fault, Martin Gleeson has been possible our best attacking player over the past 4/5 years, he's our most dangerous player, in terms of our backs, he's the closest thing we have to world class, he consistently puts it on a plate for his winger and produces the good more often than not. How you've come to the conclusion that he hasn't performed, I really don't know, he's been very good for us.

im not a big fan of mathers but i reckon he would be good under ts again! it could be a good move for both clubs? anyone know if there is any truth in this rumour???

Spot on. Although i still wouldn't swap him for the 2 Wigan players in question.
