Will we EVER learn?'"
Tail continues to wag dog.
Wellens seems to have too much clout somehow. Just don't get it.
Subsequent announcements of Meli and Gardner getting extensions will put a tin lid on it.

| Pat Richards is off to west tiger (official) so we can expect more competition for broughton I'm sure which means we'll no doubt decide to 'go with youth'
Or even worse we'll resign Meli or Gardner and try to spin it as a massive bonus!  |

It's crazy to me that the club appear ruthless when it matters (Foster & Gaskell) but then bow down for someone like Wello who us clearly well respected by the players, club and fans, but that can easily be eroded. Respect takes a lifetime to earn and a moment to lose.
Either Wello is a Jedi or he's a stage hypnotist. I can see it now....Look into my eyes, not around the eyes, look into my eyes...and you're under.

I reckon Wigan will have someone to promote. If not, they can always stick a bid in for Meli.
If Tomkins is off the the NRL also, perhaps they'll need Wello too?

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 |

Big chance for Burgess, Manfredi or Gelling, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Wigan offer a transfer fee (if necessary) for an established winger. It's the goalkicking part that is a bit of a concern, although Smith maybe could do that job with Hampshire getting a few games next year (he is a tremendous prospect) |

You were saying you thought Hampshire would get a run at fullback this year - do you think he's your replacement for Tomkins?
The system Wigan play with is so comprehensively effective, it seems as long as players know their role, they can slot in seamlessly. Its an almost perfect enviroment for bringing young players on. It can (perhaps) be caught short a the end of the season when teams with a bit more experience and power gear themselves up, but if they persist, find the right kids and keep them all together then in a few years, once they've matured, they could have a good 5 years when no one can touch them.

Hampshire has 16 tries and 52 goals from his 10 games in the U19's this season. We're going to have to find a place for him in the next couple of years (or someone else will!!)
I suppose it's when Sam goes that will be the factor, if it's at the end of this year then Hampshire may be pushed in early. I'd like Sam to do one more year by which time Hampshire will be 19 years of age.
I'm not sure you can keep all the young players together (sadly) as supporters are a little fickle and want success, Wigan 2003 - 2006 and Saints 2010 to present.

I've seen Saints through periods of success and through drought and I can honestly say, I don't enjoy anything more than seeing a young lad pull on a redvee and turn himself into a Superleague player. |
