| Quote Toddy Senior="Toddy Senior"A bit of conspiracy theory about what Sam Tomkins will be doing at the end of this season: Apart from the newspaper stuff a few months ago about his departure to New Zealand Warriors, everything seems to have gone quiet. Could this be because Sam might not be joining the NZ Warriors after all but could instead be on his way to the dark side (rugby yawnion)? Remember all the boos they got when Ashton (Wigan) and Eastmond (Saints) left to play union? Eastmond, Ashton and Joel Tomkins seem to be doing well in the boring game and Sam obviously has sibling and friendship links with at least two of the three I've mentioned. Remember also that Sam scored for the Barbar poofties last season? I sincerely hope I'm wrong because, even though I'm a devoted Saints fan, I admire great players such as Sam, Andy Farrell, Kevin Sinfield, etc and they make our game what it is. Anybody else think we're all being kidded about where he's going or am I just plain barmy?'"
It's a good theory but I honestly think he's off to the NRL. I think the new NRL cash came a bit late for Ea$tmond and the other Tomkins or they'd have been over in Aus too. All the excuses about International RU being great and a big draw are fine but would have meant very little without the significant amount of cash that went with them.

I saw something that said Logan was going to Auckland as well perhaps as a sweetener, a la Burgess brothers. I can't see ratboy junior having the same impact as George and Tom Burgess who are both tearing it up there. I totally agree with the other code being the enemy and not the nrl, at least if they go down under they stay in rugby league.

| Not really d where he goes, worst kept secret that he is leaving the Wigan club. If its the NRL then good on him and if its the RFU then good on him.
Will be a loss to SL yes and will be a loss for England if he goes to Union but there'll be another.

| Rumour is that Joel is coming back to League with Wigan. I can see it now, a season or two at the Goons, put himself back in the shop window and then hop on a flight down under for mega bucks now that their salary cap make RU look small time. Is it too obvious???? SBW was strung up for less.

| As you know Minichello won't come to SL and won't rip it up.
I think there's a far better chance of Ryan Hampshire ripping it up given a couple of years.

There's an even better chance Hampshire will be in yawnion or the NRL.

| It can't be long before Josh Charnley leaves for the NRL. Very, very short odds so I've been told.

But not to worry I'm sure wigan will put a clause (lol) in his contract that will give them first option for when he's over 30 and wants to come back. They may also use the announcement to share the positive news that they managed to sign Shane Williams as his replacement

I can see them offering stupid money for him to stay. I mean, they're screwed without him.
