Really? Even Leeds fans have turned on Gale now.

Is that more to do with the mid season incident? (I don’t know by the way, just speculating).

FWIW I’d take Gale if he was available.

Just a few posts from the Leeds forum before the game this week! He seems like a bloke who has to be centre of attention, though I think he's been knocked down a few pegs by Leeds this year.

Quote: 100% Warrior "Gale has been border line appalling all year, his form does not warrant shoeing back in the side if anything other than 110% fit, that said he at least makes the bench as its a massive risk only going with one dedicated half back.'"

Quote: 100% Warrior "Gale hasn't done much this season. His kicking game has been terrible. He needs phasing out next season.'"

Quote: 100% Warrior "The benefit of Gale returning would be Myler being able to go to FB, he’s not had a good year though and it’s debatable whether the benefits would extend beyond that.'"

Fair enough. I would never have seen those comments as I don’t venture outside of this forum. He’s never struck me as that type of character but then again I’ve never paid much attention to him.

Gale would be a step in the right direction.

Fingers crossed.

Gale is still a better player than Miller, regardless of what a few Leeds fans (who have always been critical of him) think.

Someone mentioned Trueman, but he's planning on going to the NRL when his current deal ends, which is why Leeds didn't want to pay a few for him a few months ago..

For all of Wigan's problems, I think the pack and 3/4s should be the priority before the halves.

We're in danger of literally not having the numbers in the halves if we aren't careful.

Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_5733.jpeg



Gale and Smith wouldn’t work.

Both play the same organising role and won’t compliment each other.

Gale and Field may work I guess.

The only thing going for Gale over Miller is the fact he isn’t a quota player.

Quote: Wigg'n "Really? Even Leeds fans have turned on Gale now.'"

Ģale like many players has had a stop start season due to injuries, suspension and covid. He was also dropped for throwing his toys out of the cot and stripped of the captaincy after a training ground spat.
But there isn't a Leeds fan I know that doesn't believe Leeds are a far better team with a fully fit Gale in it. Wrong to say we have turned on him after a few posts, but it is correct to question his fitness. He does miss lots of games for one reason or another.

I couldn’t say whether Gale/Field would work. In theory yes but we all know that’s a world away from reality. Ideally it would have been Gale/Hastings.

The quota is the main reason I can buy into this rumour.

My concern with Gale would be that we would be buying a bit of an old crock again. He's 33.

Rather have Benji! Probably played more rugby than Gale this season. And got more assists.

Gale I can see happening I doubt wether uncle Gary at Leeds would want a spare halfback on the books so must surely be looking to offload him,yes it’s be a gamble but at this point Wigan have painted themselves into a corner and gambles are all that’s left?

I agree with you on that in all honesty and if we didn’t need a HB (I’ve come round to the idea) I’d definitely be in that mindset. If Benji were available we’d be daft not to consider hun but I don’t think he is?
