Quote: Ruddy Duck "Why all this obsession of getting a Prop when apart from the fact that there a number of Props in the squad, we need to get a top class winger who is better than either Manfredi and Marshall.
Wigan has always been known for having top class wingers !'"
In an ideal world (which this isnt and this isnt going to happen) the following would be done preseason.
Burgess gone (sorry GB but we cant carry you).
Clarke gone
Clubb gone
So one down 2 to go.
I assume there has to be a hit to the SC in the deal for GB to go, so I doubt right now we have the cap space for another marquee.
If we shift Clubb and Clarke then we might be able to get someone else but with what I guess we have we need someone with go forward and if Lam thinks this is the guy then so be it. I know its a minute of footage and its a few years back, but in that minute I saw exactly what we miss at Wigan at the moment.
Whether this guy can do it, I dont know, but if that's what he does he's what we need on lower money.
As for wingers, we all want top wingers, but assuming Marshall and Manfredi get back to their best we have 2 top class wingers and a third would not be good use of the cap.
Remember, no props no pots. Or to be more exact, no props with go forward no pots.
