With Matty Smith leaving, surely now we have free cap space to bring in another player?


TL will probably take up Smith's space on the cap

Kevin Naqama is a bloody good player, and I'd be delighted to see him at Wigan. He's not that big, but always seems to make good yardage with the ball, rather like Bateman does. Only 27, and 20 tries from 47 appearances for Wests isn't too shoddy for a centre.

I thought he had gone to Swinton? Which is disappointing because on the few occasions I've seen him I thought he had great potential but can only assume that Ganson has leapfrogged him in the pecking order.

For me the only places I have concerns now are hooker and centre.

I've been banging on about Dwyer for a while I would really hope if Crosby is going I would love for it to be to accommodate a move for Dwyer.

Naquama is probably too much to expect or hope for in the centre and no doubt we will be looking to shift backrows there as cover, would be a great signing though if we could sign him.

That would give us a hell of a squad for 2017 but to be fair apart from hooker we are still in pretty good shape.

Hadn't heard about that - last I heard he was out injured.

Interesting that one, he's not the structured type, definitely a more off the cuff and see what happens kind of player.
