the contract im sure will be right for the club and he wont be on what he was

we may already have a replacement in rankin for years to come.... gaskell to could be a future partnership with rankin

Some big hits from Wigan in that first half.

4 brawls, one sending off, sin bins - and that was just the first half.

Plenty of entertainment for 3 quid.

Would anyone take Matty Smith? Not glamorous but can manage a game and he's won things. Would be good alongside more of a running half like rankin/gaskell imo

Brought playing on one leg would be more effective than Matty Smith

always like matty smith, can manage a game better than brough especially when the pressure is on and can put those drop goals over!

but cant see it happening!

He's not spectacular, but manages a game really well, would be happy to see him here. He is not a long term option being in his 30's himself. We need to put Brough's money into another young quality halfback. Yup there aren't many around but when one does become available we need the Brough wage money to snap him up, whether it be a young British talent, or an antipodean who is understudy to one of the best over in Aus and wants a first grade chance.
