I doubt we'd ever considered him given a) a supposed attitude problem and b) he's an overseas player who'd cost a lot of money.

Anybody any idea if Sarginson is staying and if so, when is he likely to be fit?

I have been told by a very source that he has signed for Bath.
His current injury is a bad one and I can only assume that the news hasn't been announcement until he has been given a clean bill of health. Bath are happy for him to recover using the the backup team at Wigan.
The same source tells me that Charnley also wants away preferably to Union.
Together with Burgess that 3 of our starting three quarter line up from last season.
I can only assume that unless there are signings that Tierney will step up to the first team.
Not sure where Gelling stands re the disciplinary issue prior to the GF.
For me we desparately need at least one new centre and another winger preferably one of whom who can kick goals. I believe we did approach Pat to come back for one season but the Catalan deal from a tax point of view was to good for Pat to turn down.
As much as I like Bateman he isn't a centre and he gets more involved when he plays in the forwards which for me is much better for the team.
I hope that IL and KR have got some plans to bridge these gaps in the three quarters.

But Charnley and Sarge are still Wigan players. All just rumours.

RU salary cap rises to £6m, then £6.5m, then £7m over the three seasons after this. We haven't got a prayer.

Might as well make Wigan Warriors a RU club and join them! Derby day v Sale!

Which is why IL leaves an open door for players who leave....

I can see a Wigan RU side in the not too distant future.
