Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever

Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

Prop- Cayless

Halfback- Barrett/Kimmorley/Prince

Seecond row- Hindmarsh/Watmough/Pritchard/Manu

In the real world, out of them we only have a chane at Cayless and Manu.

If we ever needed a replacement for Gareth Hock what about David Kidwell?

Would give us both some weight in the forwards and experience.

Frank Puletua could be another option.

Props for this year - what about Ben Ross?

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

People seem to be complaining about who we've signed when in fact we haven't signed anyone yet, plus that list is players out of contract next year, so no point picking players of it if were gonna have no space for them because of signings made this year. I can certainly see the sense in waiting for the right players, what I've yet to see are players that people would like to sign this year who are out of contract this year and available.

David Kidwell or Frank Puletua as a replacement for Hock. Would beef up our forwards and provide some experience.

Ben Ross as a big prop forward for this year to replace Andy Coley.

I would be happy with that but would we have enough money for those two and a world class half back?

To get them Phleps would have to go.

So

Phelps
Smith
Coley
Bailey

all going, I am not sure we would have enough as I think we may keep Bailey and would probably have to get rid to get both of them in.

My ideal signing would still be Cayless and Barrett :D

Good players but are they off contract at the end of this year? And bringing in two overseas players where do we stand on the quota, who would have to make way to accommodate them Bailey, Phelps?
