Dissapointed regarding the overseas rules. Made up Puletua resigned but me must make more signings.

Graham
Flannery
Eastmond
Pryce

4 massive players leaving and so far only 2 are conning in. We need another 2 signings IMO.

To be fair, With the arrival of Lance ohaiai (or however you spell it!) and the emergence of Lomax, Gaskell and even Wheeler, i think we're set in the halves.
We've got a zillion backrowers so flannery wont be missed, and our props for next year will be
Perry, LMS, TP, Cloughy, lafanchi (sp again!), and it looks like Magennis is following Cloughy's path to the front row too. Remember Peacock started as a backrower, and is/was one of the worlds best props

This is getting boring now, there is a massive difference bewtween the stick Wigan were/are getting and what we have done.

Jammer wanted to go to the NRL, Eastmond wanted to go to Union.

We wanted to keep them both, not happened unfortunately.

Wigan "shifted" their british talent out of the door to "make way" for the overseas signings.

See simples....(like you)

In that case then, it is true you can't polish a turd.

Only an idiot (i.e. you) would criticise Saints for their youth policy and development of English/British players.

why only an idiot?
its not better than ours!

And Sean Long..

Oh and Hudds signed Hodgson and Robinson and Brown and Wild and Aspinwall, all made way for Antipodean players.

I could go on

And at least two of them have been in serious trouble.
Which of those should Wigan have kept?

Show me where I said it was. As I said Saints have been applauded by most (sane) people and experts in the game about our youth and development policy.

Jesus, even Wigan's most famous son, Phil Clarke said we were the best in the league at it.

Sean Long, admit it. Imagine if he had played for you lot all those years he was leading and winning with St Helens.

Brown, Robinson?

Dont talk about players being in serious trouble, you have had your fair share and kept hold of them, in fact one of them should be returning from a very lenghty ban soon, and you cant wait to have him back.

I know you wont admit it, you never do, too blinkered, but definietely Sean Long, in fact you even tried to resign him when he was at Saints.

This is absolutely fabulous news!

What a pack we will have next season!

Anyway I will not spoil the thread anymore, Fantastic news that the big fella has resigned. One of THE most dangerous forwards in the SL.

But we had Edwards at the time followed by Lam. The only one I regret not keeping was Brown, but that's just my opinion.

btw just check your pms

There was a little gap in there,wasn't there? Tony Smith? Gavin Clinch?

Sean Long obvisouly turned things around, but the guy who I was dissapointed for/in was Craig Murdoch. I thought he was an outstanding young scrum half who went down hill steadily at his other clubs (I think he struggled with injury at times).
