| We've taken bigger gambles than this in the past and a club of our standing sometimes has to take these chances. At the end of the day he's world class and how many of those have we currently on the books?

If, by 'international players' you mean, are they better than the players England took to the four nations last year:
Cashmere, Holdsworth and Patten.
When you think Cashmere is better than Griffin, Holdsworth is better Kevin Brown and Patten is far better under the high ball than Tomkins and has far better positional play than Widdop. Although I do think Widdop has potential.
Add to that Wild has played for England/GB, plus Smith, Ratchford and Broughton could make it into the England team in the near future. Granted, it's only international potential at the moment. Let's not forget Nero plays for Italy!! Lol

And that Widdop is now a stand off... Pretty useful in his new position too.

| Obviously he would offer us something from a playing perspective, but he's not worth it for all the hassle that goes with him. Unless he's sorted out his personal life (which is very unlikely if what I've been told of the alleged circumstances of his supposed sacking are true) then we should steer well clear IMO.

So I've been hearing, for England's sake let's hope he can step up! I actually thought he played better at centre than Atkins!!
Just trying to highlight what talent we do actually have.

| Of course, we must remember that he's been over in Aus for years and progressed through their academy structure. Which makes me think; would it be good policy to send people over to Aus at an early age to aid their development?
However, I'm sure he'll step up. He's got years and years ahead of him and a coach renowned for successfully bringing players through to first grade. (Craig Bellamy)

| Stay clear I think he is bad news - When Wigan find him he will be sacked - Stick with young lads coming through & perhaps look for some one who wants to play for us.

| I honestly wouldn't sign him regardless of his history. Yeah he has been a good player but he's the wrong side of 30 and we don't need another centre. We could do with another prop or an out and out winger. It'd just be a waste of money.
