seems a shame if we are going to be filling our squad with wigan juniors - un less wigan are paying their wages

You highlighted that we need another centre, and at the same time suggested that George could play at FB if required. In that case then what is wrong with playing George in his natural positions' that being a centre if required not to mention Murphy, it would make more sense to me.

Has Winterstein deffo gone

I'd guess it would be we cover a bit of the wages, Wigan cover the other part. They get to keep a hand on good prospects who otherwise they may have to release for salary cap reasons, we get the use of a potentially good young player on the cheap. Considering the relative financial resources of both clubs, it suits us both.

id like to keep winterstein he certainly has a good offload hes just been unlucky a pre season under him and who knows he could flourish handsomely id certainly be looking to keep him and try to offload another forward

Wouldn't mind seeing Thackray from Hull myself. Would be good for a season and Kear got the best out him.

keep him away, we don't want him in any shape or form..as for winterstein, he has been unlucky with injuries this year. i would like to see him stay but don't know enough about whether we are able to keep him.

Should he have a squad space though when we should be looking at giving the academy players we've promoted a chance.

In my mind, I have nothing against top-notch imports playing in our league, but it does nothing for the international set-up when we import journeymen to fill up squad spaces and quota spots.

but will they be good enough next year? totally agree with home grown being brought through. possibly in a couple of years.

I hope that with a pre-season under his belt, we see more from Winterstein next year.

shame about frank, we haven't got space for him on the quota. hope the lad finds another club. think he would be a useful addition.

couldn't we loan him out ?

all in favour of giving academy players a shot but if we can get some good aussies, then why not. not really bothered about the international thing, wakey trinity isa all i am bothered about. like to see england do well but prefer to see wakey do well.

I watched the Hull v Wakefield 2004 play off game the other night and Spicer was, like the majority of the rest of the Trin lads, outstanding. Never really kicked on though?
