| Quote St pete="St pete"I'm not so sure if have give Turner a new deal YET. He's not really impressed me that much. He's seems to lack effort and just goes thru the motions. I think he could be a good player but he's got to try harder. At the moment he's just a show pony.'"
I agree about Turner. I always feel like he could break tackles and be a handfull close to the line if he put more effort in.

Evidence this year suggests that Brown prefers lance at hooker than in the halves.'"
If wheeler stays on, its got to be some sort of rolling contract or a no play-no pay.

Wheeler will never go for a pay as you play. He would get a deal at 50% of the super league clubs.

| Wheelers an enigma, wrapped in a paradox. All the talent, but horrible, horrible luck with injuries.
I really fear we let him go and he spends a decade punishing us at another club.

| The way it is going Percy will have played more game time in his first season than Gazza has played in five. I don't know the answer with Wheeler perhaps he does not have the desire for the game that coupled with awful luck is not a good combination. However many players play with injuries of some degree it is how quickly they want to get back. He knows the standard is so poor someone will always take a punt on an ex Saints player. Turner is as good as anything we could sign in the English Comp

I don't know how you can question Wheelers commitment ? Anyone who saw the pictures of him in the changing room when he went off with his hamstring would know he was totally devastated!

Not anymore, surely? His injury record is a massive problem, he's available for about 30% of the season. He wouldn't get a serious offer from any club at the moment unless he can prove his fitness.
He really needs to work hard to save his career. When he was in the side earlier this year, in a rare period of games without an injury, he was very out of shape.

| I think it's great news on both of them.
Although people struggle with the Turner decision at the end of the day he's as good as any English Centre that might be available in the near future. Besides that I think he's showed more going forward in recent weeks than Shenton did in two years and he's improving. Shenton was supposed to be the finished article!

Do Wigan not promote players above their age group too?
