Yes in the same week our local rivals Wigan splashed the cash on bringing in 3 melbourne storm star players, they have allowed it seems young centre Ian Thornley to leave and join Sale Sharks, if i were a Wigan fan i would be particularly disapointed, not in signing these star aussies, but in the fact that another promising young lad has been allowed to move to RU. I would of thought the money spent on finch, hoffman and lima could of been used to keep this lad in our game. But then again i am not a Wigan fan (thankfully) but as a League fan its always a shame to see one of our own go over to the other side.

There have been annual rumours about him going to RU and he's never been one of the more highly-rated players as far as I've heard so I wouldn't read too much in to it.

It happens, Wigan probably offered him a one or two year contract, Sale have given him a three year contract ad if he's half decent he'll be an England international before long. They can't keep em all.

Reading the VT Wig@n offered him a contract and Sale offered him £70k, hardly going to turn that down!

Its amazing how Wigan are bigging up the signing of Lima, Hoffman and Finch. Yes they will be good players in a good team but I wouldnt exactly call them the cream of the Storm team in recent years. Now had Wigan signed, Smith, Cronk, Folau, Slater or Inglis then just maybe that would have been a story??
Funny when you run through the list above is any surprise the Storm were over the cap??

Ian Thornley is/was very highly rated at Wigan, there is also the possibility that Stefan Marsh may also be going to Sale RU. Two very good young players, i would be a tad upset if i was Wigan fan, but i'm not so don't care that much, apart from the obvious argument re: franchising and developing good young British talent???
