| Why do we need to sign Thomas?
The guy would struggle to get a game in our 2nd team, we should be looking for better players.

As in Ness? Thought you'd been there, done that ( just for the older fans!)

Because he's free.
Anyway, why anyone is taking IL's 'its just rumour' rubbish and believing it is beyond me.
The lad has clearly signed & will be announced when he is available in person. that's why he wasn't there today - he was on a plane

It's been a while since anyone called Gareth Thomas a 'lad'

Not sure if it has been linked to previously, but this article contains some interesting comments from IL about the future of recruitment policy. Essentially looks like we will be looking at the Welsh and Rugby Union links.

interesting article..interesting comments.
1. re Joel....theres plenty more where he came from and you can have him "at a price, and we'll develop others"
2. recruiting young Union players and developing them?...to play for Wigan? or as commodities to make a profit on selling them back to union in the future?
3. IL refused to confirm Gareth Thomas signing............he didnt actually flatly deny it then?

No, he put on twitter this morning he was back in London and gutted to be missing a potentially historic end to the world cup for Wales.

| Quote: LovesToSpooge "Dudson and Flower I'm happy with, they could turn out to be very good signings longterm. Lauaki I'm not as enthralled by, I could see the sense in 1 year deal to see what he's capable of, but two?
As for Thomas I'd have to hear in the in's and out's of the deal before deciding whether good or bad.'"
No nothing about Dudson or Flower but at least they are relativley young and like you say they may well be good long term signings for Wigan.
From what i have seen of Lauaki he does seem to have some aggresion and with both Coley and Hoffman now gone perhaps Wane has concerns about the pack getting bullied next season without some biff? Well thats the only reason i can think of right now!
Like you say i think the potential signing of Thomas may make more sense when its made official and some of the finer details are made public because right now it doesnt make much sense.
