On paper it's very exciting and given the licenece to do so could really thrill the crowds with a mixture of pace, power and skill.
The only 2 things missing for me are a halfback who can really guide us around the park and a coach that will allow the lads to use their own sense and play some rugby.
I'm not saying sack Noble because i've always said if he had the right players at his disposal he could do a good job but he's got to take the shackles off abit.

| Stuart Fielden will be here for 2010. I think we need to wake up from the dream that he will leave us. Wow can't believe I would be saying that after 2006.
We just have to hope that someone with more to offer than Andy Coley can help take some "pressure" off him.

| Quote: Last Son of Wigan "I'm still not 100% sure if Pats better on the wing or FB. I hope Roberts makes the wing his own but I fear he won't. I think a true FB and Richards on the wing would work better. Remember the amount of tries scored from a cross field kick for Richards?
Farrell in the reserves already looks better than Hansen. The only reason Hansen is not in the spot light is cos we have some many other issues within the team, once they're sorted he'll be the next with the question mark over him, the top tackler award last season is covering the cracks for how little he offers in other departments, I'm sick of people talking about how he runs the 'best straight lines' etc, laughable!
Not 100% convinced yet with LMS, doesn't look anything outstanding.'"
Pat is very solid at full back and will improve each week as he has done already. He has good support play and has experience which is a great quality to have as a full back. Yes he scored a fair few tries from cross field kicks but do you think Pat would have finished the try Amos scored against Huddersfield? No he wouldn't, we need to give Roberts time and support because I think he will be a quality player for us. He has unquestionable speed and knows where the try line is and now he has a centre by the name of Gleeson inside him we should see the best of him. He should be near enough settled now his wife and kids are over too.
Hansen is a solid player, all top teams have these, you simply can't have world class players all over the field. To say Farrell in the reserves looks better is ridiculous, how many super league games has he played again? I think the person next to break into the back row will be Mossop as he has been touted as the outstanding performer in the reserves.
LMS is a fantastic player now and will only get better with age. He will be a regular in the England side no doubt. Young, big, strong, quick, hardworking and makes solid metres. If IL could bring him to Wigan I think it prove to be one of his best ever signings.

Fielden has been nothing short of embarassing so far this year and to ever think he could re-capture the form of 5 years back is a pipe dream but he could easily get back to his preformence level of the 2nd half of last year which imo is easily enough for us to want him to stay on for 2010 and beyond.
He needs a tough leader alongside him imo who won't be afraid to kick his ar*e into gear.
Farrell would have done it without doubt.

Info is on :
Few pages back mate.
On the topic of Finch, I just checked Mark Riddell's FB page to see if there's any updates and the status has been changed and deleted.

| I can't say i know that much about Finch other then remebering how highly praised he was at the back end of last year for the Eels when he came back from injury and played superbly well according to reports.
Would he be a good signing?
Whats his style of play? direct or an organiser?

If I'm 100% honest I would prefer Danny Brough

| Is this a rumour thread or a dream team thread.
People talk about Dobson and Brough like they're out of contract, or there's any substance in getting them out of contract.

I know, it's ridiculous.
Somebody will be suggesting we're about to sign Martin Gleeson next!

44841.jpg There is a place in wigan, right next to Robin Park, where legends such as Farrell, and Radlinski made their mark. the boardroom's full of trophy's, its time we won some more, All the other teams know what we mean when they hear the Wigan roar.....:44841.jpg |

| Fielden seems to have taken a bashing over the last few pages. I still like him and wouldn't get rid of him. He just needs some support up front. Feka is great for all 12 mins each half, Coley I'm affraid is not Wigan standard although to be fair he's bucked up a bit lately. Paul Prescott is a good young lad but needs to develop, as does Eamon O Carroll. I'd love to see an Adrain Morley type along side Fielden with Tommy at hooker. I'd take dobson back at scrum half in a shot!
