I see Jamie Ellis signed for hull as I said way before the rumours came about. In fact I think the rumours came from me putting it on the hull and Leigh boards.

It's pure BS that we are talking 2 King.

It's exactly the same kind of crapoola as the Pauleta to Wire rumours a month back.

I ain't got a clue if Wigan are looking at bringing king in but I know for a fact saints inquired about him about 6 weeks ago.

Matt King has stated publicly in an interview that the only clubs he would play for would be Melbourne Storm and Warrington Wolves

Yeah, and Solomona once famously said that he would never play for any other British club but Wakefield.

How many clubs has he been to since then, including yours?

Exactly, at the end of the day it's a job, King doesn't have a huge number of years left in his career and will surely want the best contract he can get.

Richards/King on one wing?

Our game plan would be so simple.. high bomb to that side, jump, catch, score.

http://www.runcornandwidnesweeklynews.c ... -28802380/ Cullen has also hinted that he will make moves to sign dual-registration trio Joe Mellor, Logan Tomkins and Dom Crosby on a permanent basis. He said: “The three young lads from Wigan have been a revelation since they came in and we would love to have them here full-time. “But Wigan are yet to name their coach for next season so we have to respect that for the time being.” I'm guessing he means on loan for the whole 2012 season. I wouldn't want to see any of those three leave Wigan on a permanent never to return basis.

I think Cullen means when they are in SL doing a loan deal which will mean them being at Widnes full time.
There's not a chance in hell of Wigan releasing those three.
Mellor might be our bench half back next year if Deacs retires.

Season long loan deals for any of the 3 that can't get a place here would be great business for us. To get to watch them closely as week in week out superleague players would give us a great indication of their talents and would have them ready at a moments notice to step into our side.
