Stop fishing, Roguey, a lot of props don't hit their peak until their 28-29. If there's any position you can afford to have a couple of oldies in, its the bookends.

yep, Baloo, Fairleigh, peacock, Morley, Steve Price (sp?) all at their best in their 30's. Of course Jammer and Fielden were great earlier in their careers, but who's to say Jammer wont improve even more?

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

I wasn't fishing, as I've said I would give Coley and Fielden new short term deals. I just don't like having too many in the team.

How many will there be at Saints next season?

What was interesting though is that Warrington according to one of their posters could have as many as ten over 30's in their team next year.

Not many, i reckon. Gidley, Cunningham, Meli & Fozzard are leaving. Wellens (who's 30 this year, by my calculations) and Flannery (who's about the same) are considered by most to be coming to the end of their tenure.
Apart from front rows, I think that's about it. Who's the oldest after that? Pryce maybe.
I don't think an ageing squad is something we need to worry about.

Aren't 4 of your props OOC this year. if Faas was leaving as rumoured, I'd be interested see if we could pich Prescott off you, he seems to have really come on in the past couple of seasons.

we'll have, with their ages next season, Wello (31), Tony P (32), Perry (30) and if they are retained Flannery (31), Maurie (31) and Meli (32)
and leon turn 30 next October too!
not bad at all, i'd suggest we'll have one of the youngest squads in the league?

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif



Quote: Rogues Gallery "Carmont is well over 30 and I don't think will be at Wigan next year. I have openly stated that I would give Coley a one year deal and Fielden a two year deal based on their excellent performances this season.

However I don't like too many over 30's in a team. I saw what happened to the great Wigan side of the 50's and 60's when Boston Ashton and McTigue stayed a little too long. A similar thing happened with Farrell, Craig Smith, Lam etc

The reason I mentioned it on the Wire board was that I was hoping for some dialogue with their supporters after they have now announced, Monagha, Solomona and Hodgson as signings. I honestly believe it's a risk.

On the original part of my post I was merely stating to someone that Gleeson and Carmont have IMO been better than Shenton this season and used their wingers try scoring exploits to illustrate this.

I also agree with chairmaker that Perry will be a solid prop for yourselves, very good defensively but don't expect him to be a rampaging tackle breaker, because from what I've seen of him he isn't.

I hope that explains my stance.
Im not saying your telling porkie pies brian but can you prove that carmont and gleeson have used their wingers more than shenton ?

Obviously it is difficult to prove but the fact that Wigan have the highest scoring wingers in Superleague should be a decent indication.

What I will do however is ask on the Cas board whether they think that Shenton is a "wingers" centre.

Playing centre for Cas and playing centre for Saints would be like a whole new ball game for the lad.

Perry is just about the right option for us. He's a big guy who can play the centimetres game and, importantly, will help block off the ruck area in defence. Age isn't a concern. The guy is in his prime (or should be) and I'm sure he won't be embarrassed alongside the pantheon of experienced Aussie props who have performed sterling feats in St. Helens colours (Britt, Fairleigh etc.)

If we get Shenton I'll be more than happy. He has all the attributes to mature into an excellent centre and I'm sure he would combine well with our core group of youngsters.

If the deal falls through it won't be the end of the world. The NRL is overflowing with three-quarter talent and I'm certain we can come to an agreement with a quality player.

How good was Apollo, do you reckon? Before graham came along I rated him as our 3rd best superleague prop behind thise two. However, sometimes I wonder whether back in 96-98 the standard of props wasn't as good... ... ... but then I remeber how hard he could tackle!

I don't think Apollo was in the same category as Fairleigh & Ward. But he was definitely in the outstanding class directly below - perhaps alongside Britt (who misses out by a smidgeon, if at all).

You know, when you said Fairleigh and Ward, i was a bit worried you'd made a typo (or had gone mad).
Kevin Ward was just before my time. icon_lol.gif
