Spot on. Lineham has a lot of potential. Already over 16 stone, great athletic frame. He'd be great for Wigan if the rumours about J.Burgess leaving prove to be true.


1. Bowen / Sarginson / hampshire
2. Charnley
3. Gelling
4. Thornley
5. Lineham

That is a very powerful athletic back line especially 2 - 5 there won't be many bigger centres and wingers in the league. We will certainly be bigger and stronger next season.

PS i do hope burgess stays… but i still wouldn't mind us signing Lineham as charnley could easily go to centre.

Pretty much agree with all of that. One of the common downsides of having a youthful squad is that they often lack size but, as you point out, we look strong in that department next season.

Interesting point about Sarginson. I too feel as if he is a better fullback than centre, and that's not a criticism of his centre play. He's been impressive in the few games he's played fullback, but it seems like he wasnt signed to play that position sadly. Would love to see him there more often now Hampshire is, sadly, injured; suppose that's a different debate for a different time though.

There is a strange rumour going round about Charnley going to HKR! How weird would that be?!

I always have and always will want to see him have a go at centre before he leaves the club. The pace I that backline with him at centre and two wingers would be exceptional and really threatening.

After only a year of first team despite his potential in doubt Burgess is a serious target.

IF he is and only if Lineham would be a great replacement. Hopefully we will not be requiring his services though.

In this country I can only think of Craig Huby as a realistic option who I'd like to see come in and replace Taylor (if he goes). He older which isn't ideal but he's at a similar level at the moment (although I believe Taylor will be better in the long term). We haven't been linked with Huby though and with the amount of clubs in for him I expect a bit of a bidding war has taken place. We don't enter in to bidding wars.

We'd have to go overseas for a replacement unfortunately.


Huby I think has signed for Giants I think.

Heard them or Hull.

Talk of him wanting a five year deal which is ridiculous considering his injury record and age.

On the BBC R/L page Shaun Wane is quoted as saying that Wigan are not in the same League as Salford when it comes to trying to get the Marquee player idea through, all he(Wane) is interested in is bringing his own players through the ranks.

Another sad bit of news from Aus is that Lee Mossop has been ruled out for the season due to his latest shoulder injury.

Looks like another of our off-season departures is also sufferring from an injury that will lead to a long spell on the sidelines. Plus Hansen has been out for a while now, even our ex players seem to have this season's injury curse!

No surprise to see Tuson injured. It's a real shame as I don't think he's been able to show his real form this year. I really rate him and was sad to see him leave but his career isn't progressing due to these niggles.

Any chance all of this Salary Cap debate could get moved to it's own thread?

I see a couple of new pages added overnight so assumed there'd be a rumour of a signing. :PRAY:

Unfortunately it's yet another tiresome game of quote-athon tennis :roll:

Sorry to have started this. I was more interested in who the target might be.
