Can see Karmichaelcunt wanting a big chunk of the cap then flying off back to Oz after a year or two.

Step backwards if that is the case. Sooner have Myler or a true HB who Tomkins can learn from. restoring and working the cap is one thing IL has worked on, don't wanna undo one of the good things he's done for the club.

I've heard before the end of the week, don't panic if it's not announced by Fri, it's going to happen.

Looks like Goulding is going for a signing, not loan.

2010?

Richards
Roberts Gleeson, Carmont, Ainscough
Tomkins (Tommy?)
Lynch? Riddell LuLu/Fielden
Hock Lockers
Tomkins
------------------------
Prescott, O Barrell, Micky, Hansen.

Personally I'd like to see Tommy move to 9 and interchange with Piggy bring in a new 7 (if the cap will allow it). Let's raise the standards at Wigan get rid of the players who aren't cutting it giving more opportunities to younger forwards.
Gotta be more pressure on the likes of Hock/Lockers/Tomkins/Hansen with the likes of Flanny/Farrell/Mossop pushing on. Comp for places is a good thing. People who read my posts on here know how I feel Hansen maybe pushed out for one of the three up and coming backrow forwards.

Maybe a deal will be done with Fielden moving back to Bradford if Lynch comes our way. I'll be sad to see Fielden go, not cos he's been a great player, but because when he signed we were all truly happy, and in his time, overall he's disappointed and not lived up to expectation, when it goes I feel his legacy at Wigan will be an 'unbelievable prop' who never actually arrived'- hope that makes sense.

Overall things are Looking better.

A more balanced team, I don't want another holocaust moment were we lose our world beater, a single player (Farrell/Barrett) and look like our teams dead and buried.

Real shame if true, it seems Noble has listened to the (imo) unfair crap told about Goulding. I was quite exited he had become a better player after giving Pryce walk-ins against Warrington U6's and thought he could be doing that more often with more than the three games in a row Noble usually gives him. Have a feeling that if true Gleeson will be absolute crap like he is atm, we will all complain after 3 games and Goulding will score a hattrick against us next time we play him

Tomkins will be 6. Smith will be all but forgotten,

Dobson is contracted, but I would love to see him back. Considering-age, cap, playing in SL attitude, he's probably my first pick to play 7 for us.

I think a Riddell/Leuluai combination at hooker could potentially be fantastic.

We have zero chance of winning anything with Leuluai at 7. Zero.

Dobson is outstanding and a real effort player that took pride in the Wigan shirt. Unfortunatly he's under contract at a good club and we won't get him out of there anytime soon.

Orford would be my first choice as he's a great leader aswell as a cracking player.

Dont know how much truth there is in this but I heard we are getting Gleeson on a 4 year deal.
