The balance of our squad does look pretty good. I can see Magennis becoming a starter next year. Dean leaving surely means we will be seeing more of Tom Armstrong at some point.

Regarding Tony P, I can see him being a prop in our squad next year on the basis most of our young players coming through are second rowers. Looking at our Props we have Graham who is an automatic starter and Perry who is a specialist starting Prop i.e. he is more a physical player than a yard maker. Given Tonys ability to bust tackles he would be better used later in the game when defences are not as sharp.

I agree with Noel Cleal.

And I didn't have any problems with the reasoned replies on the Wigan site to my original post.
