No idea why Hastings seems to have cooled on Wigan but this paper report seems just fantasy 2+2=125.Why would Lui feel pressure when we haven't kicked off yet.More pressure last year so if he doesn't like pressure why leave Salford who were flying high to come to Leeds who were under pressure of relegation.

Surely the Hastings issues are more to do with not wanting to come back to England rather than a move from Salford to Wigan. Sounds like .

It's one of the worst transfer rumours I've ever seen

In other news, Leeds are rumoured to be interested in Widnes winger Martin Offiah, although Wigan is his preferred destination...

Even better, it's two bad rumours stitched together.

https://www.zerotackle.com/free-agent-t ... ine-50808/ Wonder if we'd be interested in Kyle Turner pretty sure we was trying to get him when Furner was looking to bring in some new faces, he'd be a useful pack player for us can play a variety of positions prop, second row and can even cover centre, seemed open to a move to uk for a couple of years just depends how much he'd be looking for wage wise but he's without a club so couldn't really demand a huge wage because he might not get better offers, he'd use our last quota spot i believe so not sure club would use it for a utility forward as we've been rumoured to use it for a marquee signing if they became available.

I would definitely take Kyle Turner. He's at the right age also and reading his interview he said he's happy to move his family around as they are a few years away from school age. I think we are pretty sorted at Prop now with Ava and Prior as starting props and Cuthbo / Oledzki and Crosby to rotate. I think we actually look a little bare in the second row now after Merrin has gone. Martin and Mellor to start but the only real back up is Smith / Donaldson / Ward and Sutcliffe. That doesn't excite me too much if we get injuries. I would prefer to either keep hold of the marquee spot until if / when the right player becomes available OR go big on a British winger to replace Briscoe.

All gone a bit quiet around the transfer front.. anyone know what the timescale are for Martin getting his passport?

It’s PNG, it’s holiday season, I’d say could be January.

Any news on when Prior is arriving?

Ben flower unsettled at Wigan after loosing number 10 shirt to burgess apparently... And out of contract next year...
