The Hull KR game takes on a little more of a challenge with Sheens being sacked, when a coach is sacked the team tends to respond well in the next game. That said I still would expect a victory at the weekend, we may be playing poor but we’re still a better side then KR.

Following on from that it’s Leeds at home, Huddersfield away and Salford at home. I would expect to beat Leeds but Huddersfield and Salford will be a challenge. They’re both improving are well capable of toppling us. 4 from 4 and I’d be very happy . First game in July is KR at home (win) and then Saints away. That game is key for me to show how much we’ve either improved, stayed the same, or gotten worse. if we win the next 6 I’m all in for Lam. 5 of those games are very winnable and a performance v Saints, especially away, would go a long way into turning people from being anti Lam to Pro Lam.

I know we have signed some over the hill players in the past, but even we wouldnt have given Clubb a 2 year deal

Clubb should be retiring not signing on for another 2 years.

Likewise with Hock for us

What a slap in the face to all fans. Build this up like it's super exciting times for fans, fans get their hopes up and wonder if it's a Jackson Hastings, Kallum Watkins or even James Maloney type of signing to warrant such a build up.

Instead we get a 2 year deal for Clubb! Who in their right mind thinks this is a good idea? This basically means the club feel there's no one else out there who's better than him for his salary. what a f'n joke. He's been a passenger for too long as it is, now he's given a new deal? My world this is bad, really bad.
Bibby...an average SL centre and winger. Yay!
Clark, I'll reserve judgement.
Hankinson? Really? So if Gilly and Sarge leave (both likely, our centres are Bibby and Hankinson?!)

Good news...well sort of. Burgess is class, but clearly is looking for a good season before jumping back on a Qantas airline, why wouldn't he? All his mates are.
Smithies. Great talent lots of promise.

Did all that warrant such a push? NO. It anything it's done the opposite, p!issed fans off further.

Time they put a firm book in Rads, time to go matey.

If anyone things this is acceptable they should be ashamed, we are Wigan, we demand to be the best.

Difficult to find a prop in any of the Super League club's first 17's that would be a worse option than Clubb. If anyone could find one to cheer me up I'd appreciate it.

We could have re-signed Dom Crosby or Gil Dudson and it would have been better.

It's not mean-spirited or unwarranted criticism either. Just look at his performance stats.

I wonder what Tony himself thinks of his performances.

Actually, its Leeds away, and I'm not over confident.

This day of monumental signings will have folk stampeding to snap up their season tickets for 2020.

Or maybe not.

All that build up, for that?!
What a club! It’s a bit cringe isn’t it.

they’ve done a belting job of persuading me to come back and pay to watch the club... Not!

Don't forget Lockers will probably only play 25% of games in 2020 but announce he can go around again and the club will lap it up...

Fully agree with every word you've said here. It will need to be the one hell of a comeback of announcements to turn this around.

Toronto will put forty on us.

My mistake.

I would still expect a win though. Leeds on paper may have a half decent team but they’re poor in execution.

The club have made a mistake talking up this announcement.
We have a reserve league next year and these are signings to play for the reserves. They will be expected to play SL when required and will provide far better quality than promoting lads from the U19s.
Radlinski says there are more to come and they will be SL/NRL quality to replace first team players leaving/retiring.
I'm ok with all these signings and extensions and look forward to the signings of first team players plus a head coach for next season.
The club does need to look at its marketing though. This is a PR disaster!
