| I think we're stuck with Brown, can't see us releasing him 12 months in after paying a significant fee, and doubt we have enough in the pot to splash out on another half
Now we have Hiku signed, presumably that's the centre position covered for 2018.
Other targets:
Naiquama to come in on the right wing on Gidleys salary
Big Prop to replace Sims
1 or 2 x Second rower to replace Westwood & Savelio
Evans, Penny, Dwyer, & Pomeroy all leaving to be replaced by a Back up hooker and ANO to cover half back when Brown is injured / gets so terrible TS is forced to sit him out. Tony Gigot maybe a decent shout? Probably more naturally a centre but could fit in in the halves or at full back and put pressure on Atkins and Hiku to perform?
Both Kings, Julien, Wilde, Johnson, Livett, Ryan Jones to stay of the out of contract players, as I cant see them taking much cap space and we need players for back up / reserves etc

Its no coincidence that when the chips have been down over the last few years and we've had no choice to put the kids in we've looked arguably at our most deadly.
Why? because they're academy players. They know the clubs history. They're keen and eager and play for each other the badge. As opposed to a quick fix buys like Brown who plays for his own personal agenda and cash.'"
If we make 8th we'll be playing dead rubbers.
So I agree. Play all the youngsters.

Why oh why are people saying if we make the 8 - It's not happening, the Hudds v Pies draw last week extinguished any lingering hope - Wigan have Widnes at home and a dreadful catalans team away - So that would mean us winning all 4 including pies away
Huddersfield have Leigh and Widnes at home

Wigan have not won a Super League game since 23rd April . That is 8 games. If Widnes win on Sunday & we win tomorrow it should be an interesting run in. So it is still possible to make the top 8
Here’s the remaining last five matches in phase one for each of the clubs in the red zone Leigh Centurions (H), Wigan Warriors (H), St Helens (A), Castleford Tigers (H).
Huddersfield Giants Salford (A)Widnes Vikings (H), Leigh Centurions (H), Hull FC (A).
Leigh Centurions Catalans Dragons (A), Warrington Wolves (A), Huddersfield Giants (A), Salford Red Devils (H).
Warrington Wolves Wakefield Trinity (A), Leigh Centurions (H), Wigan Warriors (A), Widnes Vikings (H).
Widnes Vikings Wigan Warriors (A), Huddersfield Giants (A), Wakefield Trinity (H), Warrington Wolves (A).
Wigan Warriors Widnes Vikings (H), Catalans Dragons (A), Warrington Wolves (H), Leeds Rhinos (H).

We have to win 2 more than Huddersfield, they have:
Salford A
Widnes H
Leigh H
Hull FC A
We Have:
Wakey A
Leigh H
Wigan A
Widnes H
It's improbable but not impossible, if Huddersfield won at Salford this week or we lose at Wakey though, we're destined for the middle 8's

The Wigan Hudds draw didn't really affect much. Due to points difference we still had to win two more games than them regardless. The killer for us was losing at Huddersfield, and by such a margin.
