If we sign Deacon then it won't be too far from Man Utd signing Owen he hasn't done too bad since he signed, & many of the Utd youngsters have already said how good it is to have another experienced player around. So if Deacon can improve Sammy then i'm very much in favour of the move.

Hope it's more of a Henrik Larsson

Would not mind McIllorum on loan if we could bring in someone of Orfords quality. For me Deacon is a massive no i would rather we look internally or around other junior structures there are 1 or 2 top quality junior halves available to provide cover who have the potential for long careers.

If you are signing someone on there way down they must in my opinion be top notch and while Deacon has been a good player I do not think he is a player we should even consider.

Why would you send our best hooker from last season on loan?

Perhaps Deacon could help us with our kicking game, something he has always been good at where we haven't!

Dunno, as my source is not from Wigan RL.

Could this mean we are away Round 1?

Season starts two weeks earlier for the teams playing Leeds and Quins in rounds 3/4 because of the WCC and round 1 proper the week after so if your source is correct looks like we're away.

However a lot of people got confused with the Sky Bet season bet listings the other week as the bet was us against Hull KR for who would do better over the regular season and people wrongly assumed it was the first match of the season betting.

Chances of 2 home games Round One & Two?

What a start to the season that would be!

Well, the other team that plays at the DW Stadium are away on the 6th February, are at home on Tuesday 9th and have no game during the weekend of the 12th/13th, so those weekends are possibilities
