| i'd liek to think he won't sign anywhere for "the money" unless that team wins soemthing this year and shows the potential for him to be part of a winning team there. so if Hull are one of the rumoured clubs, IMO they need to win something this year and i can't see that happening to be honest.
i can see leeds winning either the CC or GF again this year, but they don't need a 6 so for me, he stays at Wigan  and i hope he does too! for me, he has been better for the club than Trent was, despite the hindrances TB may have had in his time here.
and anyone who can make a joke about not running that far for his try since he was a kid for me shows what a personality he is and how much the club should try to seal a further deal pronto! its not just a performance on the pitch that has an effect ont he squad, its behind the scenes as well. lockers is one of my all time fave players but you can always see finch organising, ranting, giving directions to the younger players. he's a class act all around and currently invaluable to the team.
sam who?

He's not a Wiganer, so I cannot see how this would affect him in truth.
It will probably be his last big contract, so he's going to look at making that as lucrative as he can and who can blame him for that?

| I love Finchy and hope he signs for another 2-3 years, but I can't believe people are putting in him in the same bracket at Barrett. Put Barrett into this side and we would be almost untouchable.

| Just got this feeling we'll lose him.

I love Finch but got to agree.
Barrett in this side would be crazy good!
Finch will more then do for 2 or 3 years though. I'm confident we'll keep him. I don't see how Saints can fit him in and if he goes to Hull well more fool him.

Thing is, with Roberts gone and Leuluai going, as well as probably Fielden and Carmont, Wigan have a ton of cap room to play with next season and if we like we can offer Finch a truck-load of cash to stay put. It's up to Leneghan I guess, or should I say it's up to Wane to convince Leneghan that Finch is worth what we'd end up paying him

| Daft thing is - We could (if we wanted to) afford to pay him double.
Like you said, Amos is gone and Fielden is most likely going, but we haven't had either of them for so long that we could give one of their wages to Finch, replace the other and (in effect) still have gained an additional player for the squad.
2 non-players out, 1 player plus 1 massive contract in.
Can't see it happening, but I'm just pointing out that there is NO reason to lose someone of Finch's quality for a bit of cash.

| Exactly. Roberts and Fielden's wages have been pretty much dead money for the last two seasons so just tacking either's wedge onto FInch's current deal wouldn't really be missed. Hopefully that will be enough to keep him here. I wouldn't want us to be held to ransom though. He's not THAT good!

Barrett is magic he wears a magic hat...
Barrett was amazing for us, but this in now and now we need to get Finch to put pen to paper and sign another 2 years, bring another decent half back in to partner Finch... Brough, Dureau, Soward any of them will do for me
Wane said on BBC he wants to keep Finch at Wigan, I think just think they are making him to play for his contract.

| FINCH has grown into the Wigan team and we need to make every effort to keep him, he is a quality player who directs the team around the park and organises the side really well BUT we should not be held to ransom by him and pay him silly money He is not in my opinion anywhere near Trent's quality. Trent was a great player in an average side who would have won every individual honour if the press hadn't gifted it to Roby, his fellow professionals thought he was the best and so did everybody else, one of the biggest miscarriages to give to someone who only played off the bench for most of the season. TRENT was the best 6 we have had since the great Brett KENNY, with him in this team behind our dominant pack we would be unstoppable!
