Not really heard too much that convinces me Bailey will be hear next year but not heard too much against it either. Pryce confirmed. www.wigantoday.net/warriors/Nobb ... 5395371.jp Not Carmont yet though. www.wigantoday.net/warriors/Geor ... 5671172.jp

There are a LOT of top class aussies comming off contract at the end of the next season. I would imagine wigan would pick up one or two

Whats peoples opinion about taking a risk with Jason Cayless ?

With his injury Record this season i doubt he would cost a huge sum..Maybe a short contract just to see if he can regain his full fitness

Just a thought so be gentle

When he signed, he was without doubt one of the top 5 props in the world. However, his injury record is a nightmare and it would take him a good few months to get up to speed (if he can stay injury free).

Wigan do a lot better imo

He will be back playing but i would expect it not till be 2011,not worth a punt now. Great player on his day but needs time to get over as best he can all his injury problems.

Great player, but he's going back to Australia. He (his agent) is already trying to engineer a move to Parramatta.

Just a thought on the prop/2nd row which a lot of us feel we need.
What about a punt on Jason Croker from Catalans. Injured at present and ooc this year.
Could he do a job for us bringing experience, bulk into the pack, a good 60 mins each game and a talker to help in the dressing room.
Although getting on he's very fit and can still manage SL standard?
Would not come too expensive either.
Thoughts?

No, I think Long's book may well contain the true reason why JC hasn't played for Saints since the league cup game. The injury sustained there should have kept him out for 6-8 weeks. Not the season.

I saw him yesterday having his dinner in Frankie and Benny's in St Helens and there is nothing up with him

I would rather get rid of Bailey and bring in Puletua on his wage, I think it would cover it and if not send a young player on loan.

Puletua is on a 3 year deal with Saints and is not available.
Bailey is here and Croker is available.

I'd take Sam Moa any day of the week.

We'd be a laughing stock if we signed him because he's about 79 years old.

I think he means his brother Frank Puletua who's a prop/second row aswell and is off contract at Penrith.

He's improved as the seasons gone on and his fitness has got better but he'd still be a risk. I'd possibly be interested if it were a 1 year contract and he wasn't asking too much.

I've got mixed feelings about Moa, on the one hand I feel he could do a good job for us adding much needed grunt and go forward to are pack, yet on the other hand he could be another liability in deference ala Feka, it's a tough one to call but I'd certainly take him if it were a choice between him or no one.

I'm seen him play a few times this season and he's done ok imo.

At the end of the day we desperately need another prop and seeing there are very few viable alternatives out there we should be looking at him.

I'd looked at his stats on the superleague site and they tell the story of a bloke thats not played many minutes or games but has done a decent job whilst on the pitch.

If Wigan thought they could get him fitter and keep improving him as a player he'd probably be worth a risk but alot of things would have to be in our favour.

Sam Moa is a player who i initially thought was a joke, some of his early season form was shocking but as the season has gone on he really has looked to be half decent I would happily have him at Wigan for a 1 year deal.

I'd take Moa and see if Hull would take O'Carroll on loan perhaps, they're looking a bit light for props next year atm IIRC

We have Dowes,Cussack,O'Meley, looks like King will be paid off and Moa prob will be leaving, if thats the case Radford,Lauaki or even Fitzgibbon could be used upfront.

Thsi guy is bloody nuts, could be great if he can keep his head next season and not go looking to be-head half the opposition

Sam Moa is going to Hull KR

Hull KR are going to make 3 more signings according to their forum.

As more clubs recruitment ticks by, there is no way that we are spending the full cap.
