We weren’t in official discussions with him, we did though approach Saints about a transfer fee.

| With French, Field and Farrimond why would Wigan want Welsby? Other than to get one over on us.
That’s not to mention Eckersley who looks a fine player although granted he may end up as a centre

We just needed someone to clean their boots
If Welsby goes anywhere it will be to the NRL

Maybe someone at the club thought that Welsby was a better long term prospect than Field or maybe Field was looking for too much in his contract extension negotiations?
Whatever it was the club I believe approached Saints and Welsby would have known about it.

Welsby would have been aware of the the approach Jon.
As a minimum it would have given him an improved contract when he resigned and maybe the seed of thinking about moving on had been sown.

There is the possibility of two new teams in the NRL shortly. I think that a few SL players will be on their way.

| Quote: The Yellow Giraffe "I’ve already wrote next week off in my mind. It would take a gargantuan turn around from what we produced in Friday to what we need to even be in a contest with Wigan. We were that bad. I’ll still be there obviously but this is just Cunningham all over again. History is repeating itself and nothing will improve now until a change is made. Wellens has not improved a single facet of our play and he is simply unable to coach and motivate this side in the correct way. It’s only a matter of time and it all comes down to how ruthless McManus is.
Also to the poster I mocked about a month ago for suggesting the League Leaders shield would be a foregone conclusion by the end of July - I apologise. It seems you were bang on.'"
Permission to take this back? ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

You are twisting words mate, if that was meant for me? I said ‘may be all over’. I hope you can take it as well as you can give it?

Of course I can. It’s banter mate that’s all.
And no it wasn’t meant for you, I was quoting myself from when I apologised and said you were right. It’s not that deep ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

Maybe so…but we see never in discussions with him formally.
We asked about his availability and what it would cost and we were rejected.
