He clearly states "If true" poptart.

Tbh, I don't know how many of these rumours are true, but alot of these players are playing like they won't be here next year, that's just based on how interested they look on the pitch.

Not really a rumour is it?

Jon Wells made a fly away comment about how he may be a good replacement for Leuleui a few weeks ago and all of a sudden it resurfaces as click bait claiming Wigan are interested and only quoting Wells from several weeks back.

Wigan have their replacement for Leuleui in Harry Smith who is finally living up to the promise he showed as a kid.

The fact is on current form when TL is fit again despite being club captain he may well struggle to get s start because of Smith.

TL has also not confirmed he is retiring. He is still playing well and I expect him to go round again all be it as a back up half covering for injuries maybe combined with s coaching position.

This really is a non story.

Please Read poptart before jumping down my throat.
If true a fee would be required and let's be honest he's well off form.

But the rumour, if true, is that he would go when he's out of contract.
I still wouldn't let him go early.

He's still in contract I'm sure.

Gaskell can replace Lino well he can wear is shirt any way

Poptart Wigan would not be allowed to express an interest in Lino now but not until the end of next season.

Hmm that's a good point. Maybe Wells or whoever is trying to unsettle him.

He is under contract just like Tanginoa therefore no club can talk to either or their representatives without our permission. If either left at the end of the season we would be entitled to a transfer fee however we are suppose to no longer be a selling club.

Who was it that signed Gaskell?

Don't you think that if the perceived bigger clubs come sniffing around for those two players that they're heads would not be turned, if it is the case and they want away then that would make the clubs position untenable and in the interest of all parties would result in having to sell them, and anybody thinking that would make us a selling club would be wide of the mark or looking for an excuse to blame the club.
