I have no particular names, but with the changes to the reserve and U20's comp there must be plenty of potentially talented guys who are too good/old for the 2013 reserve grade and need to find a squad place somewhere. With the production line of talent at Wigan at the moment I'd hope we're having a conversation with our friends over at the DW to see if they have any talented youngsters they want to keep in the game by loaning to us.

And Gaskell is a great shout btw.

I heard that Fielden may be Featherstones marquee signing. I'd hope that FC would be at least considering him as an option given our obvious shortage of props.

Barrie Mac comes out of retirement to hold his hand!

League Express again;
FC: "...I'll be able to go to people who have not quite had a career yet, or maybe are on their last chance, and I can offer them an opportunity to become part of this group."

Aitcheson has been released as far as I know. Personally I would look at:

Jack Murphy - WIGAN - Fullback/Winger
Matty Russell - WIGAN - Fullback/Winger
Ryan King - WIGAN - Winger
Dan Lloyd - WARRINGTON - Prop
Adam Swift - ST HELENS - Winger
Carl Forster - ST HELENS - Prop
Joe Greenwood - ST HELENS - Prop
Brad Singleton - LEEDS - Prop

Jamel Chisholm - Free Agent - Winger

The main ones are Chisholm, Singleton, Greenwood and the Wigan lads.

Jared Stewart at Leeds always looked real good I thought, he'd be a good shout.

Word on the Wigan board is that Russell is going to the NRL next season, so you can probably count him out.

With Joseph off the books we have a 6 figure sum salary available.

I think Singleton has signed for Fev. Dane Manning at Halifax is a very good player, but is a back rower. Maybe he would be worth considering if Langley was moved into the front row. I think Matty Russell is going to Melbourne although I may be wrong.

Now where exactly did you see that...?

£8,000.00?

Really can't say who's given me the info, just putting it out there
