So hang on, he's done very well to get Cas to finish on fifteen points in 10th place with a poor squad, but you presumably agree that Tony Smith failed last season with us finishing on twenty points in 10th with a poor squad? You're just making this up as you go along.

Has George King been announced or rumoured for anywhere yet? I'd make an attempt to sign him if he's still available. I feel like it was a while ago though that he was rumoured to be leaving KR so expect his future may already be sorted somewhere

Huddersfield bound

King and storton would both have been decent additions to the squad

Hallelujah.
We have a winner .

Don't get too excited about Liam Bryne, it won't be happening

I dint think anyone believed it was. Salford or leigh much easier options if he leaves wigan

Yes, looks like Ligi is staying but we still need to bring another prop in. Bienek would be a good pick up or maybe Eseh Jnr on a season long loan maybe if Wigan won't let him go permanently.

How do you know

I'd definitely have a look at Bienek. From what I've seen this season he seems to have improved enough to be given another go. He was only about twenty when he was here which is no age for a prop. I've not seen anything in Eseh to convince me he'll improve us next season.

I'm not that disappointed Ligi is staying. Maybe and it's a big maybe Cartwright can sort his discipline out because if he can Ligi is an asset.

Just been told from someone who will know. I can believe we enquired but I think that's as far as it went.

His source is about as good as it gets.

Think Bienek has a good job in London.

I'd look at Bullock for a couple of years.

Looks like Sao is staying, but could go with another forward.

I think he'd be far more effective been used off the bench next season in 20-25 minute spells. I don't think it's helped this season him been kept on the pitch for so long. ( he must have played the full 80 minutes in the majority of games he's played.) I'd argue that a lof of his indiscipline has come under fatigue due to too many minutes on the pitch.

fully agree. He's our 2nd best prop. Adds more to the team than ashworth and aydin. He's been overplayed and played out of position a lot. If we keep him to middles and rotate him properly he'd be far more effective and make less errors in defence. Most of the penalties and cards look like fatigue play a part to me.

He does need to stop with the stupid errors at times though and pick and choose his passes better

I don't mind his proactiveness, and his willingness to offload. I don't particularly mind the errors, but this year, we cannot defend an error, so they are magnified. Next year, we should be more solid, and be able to defend an error

We topped the charts for offloads this season (I'm as surprised as the rest of you!

) so if we can get Ligi to be a bit smarter with knowing when to offload and build on the second phase play, then both Ligi and our offload game itself will be an asset.

With him being one of the most experienced players he probably feels he has to take more responsibility to sort the mess out that's surrounding him. His indiscipline is probably due to frustration.

I'd be willing to give Sao one more chance under a new coach. He was effective for Samoa in their run to the World Cup Final so it can be done

I don't think you have much say in it TBH

he does some stupid ones though. I can't remember who it was a few weeks back when he intercepted the ball near our line, made a 30 metre break then threw the ball away. Stupid stuff like that need cutting out

London @ Magic I think

Bullock signed a new deal at Warrington ealier this year, although he has been out on loan at Salford.

only because of the quality of players around him when playing for Samoa
He was played in the second row due to Samoas injuries which is not his best position
Needs to be played as an out an out front row not second row one week and front row the next.
He has brain farts but a lot of players do and personally think his indiscipline was more out of frustration getting tonked every week by most other teams.

Bullock is available.

He had a "Fall-Out" with Matty Russell on a night out that Russell instigated and both were loaned out immediately.

Neither have played for Warrington since then.

Russell ' s contract expires at the end of the season so there could be a way back for Bullock, if Sam Burgess allows him but I doubt it.
