| Quote: Last Son of Wigan "Key area of signing is a prop, I'd like two.
Enforcer and Impact to do the 20min spells with Feka.
The most important would be a 60 min enforcer prop with Captain leadership qualities.
Hard to find, but what is needed. Probably this is how we use our CAP money and overseas quota spot. I think the Aussies overall, do produce this time of player better than we do.
Despite his age I think Wiki (if he could have been fitted into the CAP) would have been ideal.'"
Ben Cross is ya man

| Didn't see many NK games last season, however when I have seen him I do rate him.
If he puts the up his team mates, leads by example, runs aggressive and will bring some fire into the team then he will could be the player we're looking for.

| Money is often the issue. But lets look at what will be available after we offload the players we want rid.
Phelps
Bailey
Smith
Mathers
Coley.
Will this be enough CAP space to get him in? We don't need any of them players regardless.

This is always the question that fans like us can not really answer.
You can't just cut contracts and throw the money at big-name Aussies, regardless of whether the current crop are 'fit to play for Wigan' or not.
To some extent you have to go with what you've got. Rebuilding a team is a slow process these days.

| This enforcer/Capt 60min man is the main issue for next year I think.
CAP should go to this player.
I'm only keen on bringing in an Aussie for big cash if they are truly worth it. i.e Barrett.
Maybe the other positions will have to wait to be filled.
After next season Fielden's contract will be up, we can use that money for other key roles. New 7, New 1 for example.

I agree
We have not had 2 good for a long time for ages we have had one of our wingers that never gets the ball i.e. Calderwood last year i think that is the main reason we never get the ball out wide as we are limited to playing that way on one side of the field give us loads more options when Gleeson gets here.

Cant agree. Roberts is proven, just needs to be passed the ball. Which currently is rare.

Roberts hasn't impressed yet but you do make a valid point. The majority of our attacking plays goes to the left.
