I doubt the WC would stop Wigan announcing a signing - more likely we will observe and see who emerges during the competition and then make an offer.

The ambient temperature in Madagascar would stop Wigan making an announcement.

For me the only positions we could really improve are wing and centre. I agree Logan should have the back up hookers jersey he didn't let anyone down although I still think Micky for full 80 will be the right option in the big games unless Tomkins improves drastically.

I'd only want a centre if a good quality strike centre became available otherwise we will be fine with Thornley and Gelling with Gildart pushing through in the next few years hopefully.

Wing for me is still the spot we can improve easily. I understand Burgess and Manfredi are highly rated but its a risk going into the year with two youngsters with less than a handful of appearances between them. I wouldn't mind a stop gap signing. Plus it wouldn't surprise me to seethe NRL clubs sniffing around Josh sooner rather than later especially if e goes well in the WC.


Goal kicking is crucial - I don't think we can afford to experiment with this although at the same time would not like us to sign a player just for goal kicking alone - again something to look out for in the World Cup.

Am I behind the times or just missed this one? Teletext mentions Alex Hurst as Wigan's new signing. London fullback, not a kicker!!

And, when new Wigan recruit Alex Hurst raced in at the corner, it was very much game on.

On the south coast with a load of retired folk. Makes me feel young.

Why are we raiding London like it's some untapped resource of quality?

I'd guess somebody is just getting mixed up with Sarginson or Clubb.
