Okay, so we know that Charnley & Sarginson are leaving at the end of the season but who else (if anyone) do we have that their contract is up at the end of this season?

Just Burke I think.

Lockers?

As with many things Wigan tend to keep contract lengths pretty secret.

I think Burkes deal is up and maybe one or two other fringe players but the main players are all tied down now aren't they?! The only one I'm not sure on is Lockers although it's not a huge concern anymore. It feels like the time may be right anyway for him to move in to the coaching set up.

Maybe Crosby?

Tierney? Apparently he signed a 2 year deal in 2012 but that's the last contract news from him...

I think I read Crosby had one more year.

It's like the secret service.

Lockers signed a contract extension foir 3 years before the 2014 Grand Final didnt he?

If true he will have another year.

What about Williams and Gildart?
Williams wants to go to NRL I believe and Gildart isn't the happiest guy in the camp.

I am a big SOL fan but to have a player in your top 4 earners and know that he can't complete a full season is a poor use of the cap.

I would say to that, as with Joe Burgess, that Williams needs to learn to swim before he sinks. He has talent, and I hope he does a lot more for Wigan, but he's nowhere near a NRL-standard half yet.

Agree that Lockers should probably call it quits at the end of the year. His experience will be massive for us on the training field. I have a feeling we won't replace him sufficiently though.

There's nobody in SL that can replace a fully fit SOL and in the current climate it's impossible to recruit from the NRL as we can't compete with salaries. We would need another big name to do something due and need a fish start, the club then wouldn't be interested anyway. So the end result is lose one of our best ball players and replace him with an extra prop at loose. Oh how the modern game excites.

I for one hope he gets fit, and now Sam is back he has more time to play his natural, more varied game and shows he can still play a bit. I don't want to lose a talented ball player and replace him with someone like Greg Burke who would operate as another prop.

Why?

He only broke into the first team less than 12 months ago.
