Good luck to him. A good squad player and hopefully releasing him will enable us to secure Hansen.

Been a long time coming I guess. 80 minute player, something worth more to other teams now as we have quite a few. Good luck to him, never did much wrong - just sadly for him outshone by the likes of Farrell.

Gutted about this. Iv always rated tuson. Hes a grafter that never backs down. Hes got more heart than people like gelling thats for sure.

On Tuson. I thought he was poor last season and it'll be a shame to see him go now he's showing some good form. You can't keep them all though and Burke and Hughes are more or less on a par with him despite having far less experience. My all time favourite memories of Tuson will be Cas at home a few years back when he scored a try from prop, then someone tried to smash him from kick off and seriously came unstuck, and Saints last year when he battered Magennis after he was hit with a cheap shot from behind. As already mentioned, I really hope this means we're keeping Hansen

This will bite us on the backside IMO.

Stunned by this news tbh. He's a Wane favourite and a player that will get better and better with age. I know we can't keep them all but I didn't see this happening.

As has been said before, if this means we can keep HH then its a great move

People will often assume that its the club "getting rid", do we know if Tuson has made the decision himself? Maybe he wants a regular spot?

Wholehearted player, i think wakey have made a good acquisition.

To be fair the truth may well be somewhere in-between. Tuson signed his last contract after the '10 season and IMO he isn't that much better than he was then but he's three years older and the competition for second row spots is much stronger. As such I wouldn't be offering him much (if any) more money this time round. Wakefield, on the other hand, can probably offer him a starting spot every week and a wage to reflect that, so it makes sense all round really.

I've got a feeling that Lenegan has already secured a couple more forwards for next season, as well as having a few great prospects coming through the academy. They will have discussed with Tuson their plans and I'm guessing he will have decided that he wanted to play rugby every week, good luck to him.

He's been getting a regular spot; the only games he's missed have been through injury. I'm very surprised too; as Nicky Kiss says, he's rated very highly by Wane.

Phil Wilkinson just tweeted

Wigan "offered Tuson a 3-year-deal with very competitive salary". Radlinski "disappointed" with decision but wishes him well at Wakefield.

I'll leave other's to read between the lines, and come to their own conclusions.

Obviously not rated highly enough, or we'd be keeping him... Solid player, but we've got a lot of them already...

In other words Wakefield offered him more. Fair play to him
