| Quote: kevl84 "yeah but the really annoying thing with Gilmour is that after he left us he turned into a brilliant second rower at bradford and now is doing his bit at centre for Saints, so what went on for him to not want to play for us in that position whichever it was.
And just getting back to the original post... After the way Orford played in the world club against Leeds this year I don't think you can call him over the hill, cause he still does the job. (yeah I know he's 31 and I know what you're getting at being over the hill with age) If he does come, even just for a year, he can pass on tips to Tomkins and Leuluai which will ultimately make them better players.
The other player not mentioned so far which I think we'll lose is Mossop. I rate this guy when he's playing in the academy for us, I heard Huddersfield were interested in signing him last year and now he's there on loan I think they'll be pushing to keep hold of him permanently. He could be another one of those that we look back on and wish we could have kept like Briscoe'"
Don't get me wrong, I rate Orford, but I can't see IL going for him. I can't see him coming over for one year either. I think we need to be patient and go for a younger player, this has been said many times but look at Leeds.
As for Mossop, yes Huddersfield rate him, but I can see him being Bailey's replacement - assuming he's released at the of the season.

Briscoe is one but went of his own accord because he knew Radlinski was blocking his path.
Wild and Tickle are probably the only other 2 who'd get in our 17 and even Tickle was signed and didn't come through our own system.'"
Phuzzy off your site says Wilde, briscoe and tickle are rubbish!
But how many of you would rather have Wilde than bailey?
Briscoe or phelps?
Hansan or tickle?

Easy really. Briscoe is he only player we've released that I (and seemingly everyone on this board) would take back. Obviously not at the time; as we had the best FB in SL.

Bingo. Caught one of them at least.
Anyway, it's years and 2 more semi-finals later. Whereas Wire = ongoing non-achievement.
Just think, mate. We're crap. So what on Earth does that make you?

The Briscoe one isn't really an issue.
We offered him a deal but he choose to leave because he had a 26 year 100% fit Kris Radlinski infront of him and didn't want to be forced into playing on the wing.
In hindsight of course we'd have wanted to keep him but nobody was to know Rads would have to retire so nobody can really take any blame........infact Wigan should be praised for not standing in his way.
I'd swap Wild for Bailey and Tickle for Hansen in all honesty.

Tickle wasn't a Wigan junior. He was signed from another club. I don't know why people keep naming him in this list. Well actually I do. It makes the figures more impressive if you keep adding names.

True, i pointed that out yesterday but like you say if opposition fans think it makes their case stronger they'll add them on to the list.
At the end of the day we've not released a homegrown player since Sean Long thats gone on to become a great player.

Trolling aside, I agree.
