Lets bear in mind we are talking about peoples careers, within a profesional environment.

1. Finch would be an idiot if he was not trying to get the best deal for himelf
2. The Wigan management would be negligent if they were not looking at replacements for all positions. People can leave or get injured at any time.

Interesting that he hasn't signed a deal yet.

Hull have a lot of cap to play with next and are desperate for a halfback of his quality, I would have thought that if we have offered him a contract it will be a very good one for three years, depends if Wigan can match this (or get close) and how much he wants to stay.

It's a bit depressing to say it but if Wigan offer Finch a similar deal to the one Hull are offering, then there is only winner.

He is exactly the sort of player saints need. Same with Hull. He would have the potential to turn either squad into a championship winning team. I still see him improving at Wigan every week though, he just gets better and better as he grows into the team.

So do we. With TL, Carmont, Roberts and (possibly) Fielden coming off cap next year, that'll be a huge chunk freed up. I personally can't see Finch playing in anything other than Cherry & White next year.

Finch will be looking for his last big contract, you can't blame him for exploring every possibility.

Written by Dave "Nosey" Parker. Enough said. The bloke is a laughing stock even among RL journos.

Did it pick up on any speech impediment that Finch, or anyone involved, may have?

Would that be the same bloke who wrote a load of rubbish about Willie Manu leaving us a month ago???

No, but the Daily Express & Daily Mail are reporting that he was somehow involved with Princess Diana and that he's an illegal Immigrant!

Pwease stay Bwett.

I suppose one hit every few years taking his info from internet boards isn't something to be that proud about.

why would he wanto leave a club where has a very good chance of picking up silverware to go to a club that has lost 5 finals in a row or to a club that ain't got a chance of anything, Wigan are THE club

Because he knows it will be his last big contract and he will want to make himself as financially secure as possible.

fair enough, but if he was going to do that then surely he would head back down under for a big payout rather than going to some small unsuccessful club living on their past glories

We should have the money available on the cap to match whatever Saints or Hull will be offering. I just worry about Lenegan's tight fisted approach and Wane's desire to have as many Wiganers in the team as possible.
