Lets not forget Jamie Foster is also available. Released without further contract from Huddersfield once his one month loan spell expired.

He'd certainly solve our kick conversion problem!

You can't be a Warriors fan if you seriously want Wigan to sign Foster?
He's a turnstile in defence and I'm glad that we got shut of him as he clearly wasn't good enough for us or SL

Think he's just winding folk up.

I think Justin Carney would be a good signing, as long as he wears a chastity belt.

Would be more than happy with Carney as a Charnley replacement- havent forgotten how he had Josh in his back pocket at Wheldon Road last season. Best of luck to Josh - 7 years of 1st team service and he is seeing out his contract- there should be no qualms from Wigan fans.

As for Sarginson, he has talent but still ranks under the 'potential' banner for me. I cant see him cracking the NRL at this stage but best of luck to him.

He's young enough to have a good crack at it but deep down I can see him signing for Salford for the 2018 season.

Lets hope Charnley finishes his Wigan career more like Pat Richards than Brian Carney.

Sarge hasnt reached his p[otential at Wigan so maybe the move will see him reach it,i can't see it but i hope im wrong.

Have to get someone to replace Josh,Carney will do faults and all and hopefully Burgess will return in a couple of years certainly wont be before that surely?

If Sarginson is good enough for the NRL, then Tom Johnstone might as well just miss Wigan out and go straight to Australia. The lad is something special.

He isn't. The only three people who don't seem to realise that are him, his agent and the Gold Coast chairman.

Well you can take the agent out of the equation as he will only be in it for the money. He will have put feelers out that Sarginson would be available next year.

Sarginson himself you feel has blagged his way in, fair play to him though. If you Google image "Gold Coast" it sure as hell looks a lot more exotic than Wigan on a wet Wednesday.

The Gold Coast Chairman though? Don't know what videos he's been watching? Maybe its the new trend to have a brit in your team, even though he was born in Aus.

It will be interesting to see how he goes on. I hope he has a great final season with us first though.

I actually think he will go ok in the NRL. I think it has always been on his agenda and he put a marker down for England in the tests.

He has the potential to be a very good player and he has shown it in glimpses I feel the NRL will see him realise his potential and whilst I don't think he will become a superstar over there I feel he will make a career for himself in first grade.

This is one of my worries. He's made it pretty clear for a while that he's wanted to leave Wigan, and that his loyalty was basically for sale. He's a pro, so I suppose fair enough ... but at times it was difficult getting him to concentrate on the game while he was still fully contracted to us. So how he's going to do an efficient job now he's going somewhere else, I don't know. But if he won't put his body on the line - a la Carney in his final season - I can't see Wane selecting him.

How can you know this? I remember people saying the same early last season about Joe Burgess, when he promptly started tearing it up. Players' form go up and down, especially young ones, I don't think it should be assumed that it's due to lack of concentration. Apologies if you have inside knowledge.

I suppose it's a perception rather than inside knowledge. Passing to no-one in front of the opposition's line, missing glaring overlap opportunities, sidestepping into tackles rather than around them, kicking at the wrong moment ... maybe as Dave O said, he simply lacks vision. But it's something of a problem for a so-called international.

Either way, the net result is the same - we've simply not had our money's worth from Dan Sarginson, unlike Budgie, who messed up a couple of times but also left us with many glorious tries to remember him by. Sarge may well improve in Aus, but that's no consolation to us. And I'm still amazed that any NRL team has taken a chance on him. I really can't imagine what they think they're getting.

I think he has performed well beyond expectations given that he was a relative unknown when we signed him, he was playing for London and only brought in as a squad player. To go on to not only nail down a centre spot at Wigan, but to also play for England and put in a really good performance against the aussies is well beyond what I thought we would get out of him, all the more impressive when you consider he's only a year older than Tierney.

I agree he lacks vision and is now behind Gildart and Gelling in the pecking order though, so not sure what we would have done with him once Sam Tomkins returns. He's too good to be a squad player IMO, and if he develops that vision he could be a great player. Hopefully around the time he gets homesick!
