If its nosey parker , take it as gospel that he's staying!

He agreed his Saints deal in May. Hope we can bring in a prop to replace Fielden if it's true he is leaving

It makes me wonder why Saints have announced it. They have after all announced the signing of Shenton, plus Hull FC announced the signing of Sharp from Quins recently, so it doesn't appear as though Quins or Saints have any reason to keep LMS's whereabout's next year a secret.

Has everyone forgotten about Lee Mossop? If you look at the squad as a whole I think we are looking pretty good, especially as everyone is another year older, which is a good thing for most of our players

Plus Hock towards the back end

If Fielden goes were back to square one being a top class prop short for the season.

I think it would be a real mistake to let him go, how much he's improved this season and i think we really need him.
I'll be absolutely gutted to see him go

I think he would be worthy of 1 year with the optional 1 year extension that has been offer to a few players like Carmont. Fielden is still worthy of our number 8 shirt after his performance this season.

heard he has been offered a two year contract.

What exactly does the League Weekly article say?

This is what i've been told he has been offered a 1 year deal for half of the wages he's currently on but hull and salford have offered the same but a 2 year deal and it looks like he's off to hull

If you think about it it fits in with the way il runs the club carmont and coley both got offered 1 year deals it can be risky to offer an older players short deals seem he doesn't want to be stuck with dead wood if anything happens

Fielden's not exactly old for a prop though, is he?

I don't know how much of a role a player's agent has in Rugby but could his agent have put this story out to force Wigan's hand?
