Hope not he is Warringtons worst prop IMO. I'd love us to try and sign Chris Hill. I know him and he wouldnt say no if Wigan offered him the same cash he is on at Warrington. Wigan fan growing up, so are all his family/girlfriends family.


I know Chris and his GF and thats not what I've heard from either of them, He's had opportunities to come to Wigan in the past and turned them down.

Paul Wood to Wigan? (link to Wire boards)

Wigan agreed terms last year with Paul wood for this season only for Wire to say they will pay him 10k more than Wigan offered to stop with them as they wouldn't sell him to Wigan.

He had a decent job and was earning a good wage mixing that with playing for Leigh. He's been offered a contract from many Super League teams in the past, I guess Warrington where brave enough to offer him enough money.

It was more to do with the financial uncertainty at Leigh towards the end of last season, he would have been more than happy to stay at Leigh, he was financially better off playing at leigh than this season (although not in the long term given his form and subsequent improved contract) He's not on as much as you would imagine playing for wire

Re: Rumours and signings v8 : Mon Sep 17, 2012 5:41 pm  
It is known Lima is leaving and that Fielden may not be here next year.
Rumours around seem to suggest we have signed an NRL prop and HKR's Scott Taylor both for next year. Also it is thought that cash and a swap deal maybe part of the Taylor deal.

As to who may go to HKR remains unknown.
However they must be getting short of props with Watts going to the KC and Taylor to us, it would fugure that they'd want a prop in part exchange. Whether this would be on a perm deal or loan we'll have to wait and see.
Hudgell and his co-director are holding a review into the finances of their club and are not selling season tickets yet until they've finished their research.
HKR may not want to take on permanent contracts if their finances are not in good shape they may prefer loan deals which can be withdrawn after the one month (or 28 days, unsure).

Spencer and Crosby are two players who could do HKR and themselves a lot of good with a loan spell as well as getting far more SL experience than at Wigan. HKR were very pleased with Josh Charnley a couple of years back and I'm sure wouldn't say no to any deal for young quality Wigan players again.
Also if the U20s are being abolished then where will these guys play anyway? Far better for them to be at a SL club on loan than a Championship outfit under DR.

If we are to get a current NRL prop and Taylor to replace Lima and Fielden then I'd think IL & SW have done some good work in the background.

Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.

Captain of Wales U16's Union side, sounds like an excellent prospect on paper.
