| Quote: wiganrl "FAO His Bobness and any other clueless fan you clearly know nothing about anything that Wigan will do as thats the case i suggest you refrain from commenting on opposition clubs unless you know the facts and try and not show your bitterness at having lost out on Finch to a far superior team Finch will NOT be forcing Tomkins to change his position he WILL be partnering him at 6 & 7 Sam at 6 Finch at 7 if he is to move anyone out of position then it will be Leuluai that moves to Hooker, as for you being confident of Wigan fairing less well next season than this may i ask on what evidence your judging that on could it be the wrong assumption that Tomkins will be moved out of Stand Off for Finch or the fact that we have signed 3 of the NRL's best players all of whom despite recent events still helped Melbourne to 3 straight Minor Premier Titles in a row and 2 of 3 Grand Final wins aswell as the World Club Championship now wether they have been stripped is irrelevent they still happend not to mention after all those 3 we also have the oppertunity to welcome back Gareth Hock aswell as an abbundance of Super Leagues BEST youngsters Rovers should know you have one of them currently saving your chances of being in the 8 this year another 2 who where in a Final on Sunday so as i said earlier find out the facts before making completely utterly clueless assumptions.'"

| Quote: His Bobness "Never seen Kristian Bell hope he is as good as you say.
I think he will be introduced when the time is right, as was Liam Watts. Three whole years and a spell on loan at Gateshead before Watts became an overnight sensation.
Finch is a solid NRL player who has never made the step up to State of Origin or test level. I think Wigan have made a major error because if Sam Tompkins was on our books I wouldn't want to shove him out to another position to accomodate Finch.
Tomkins is a blinding talent to Finch's everyday efficiency. I think Finch would have been more useful to Rovers, and Rovers more useful to him.
I confidently predict Wigan will fare less well next year than they have this, despite or more accurately because of their influx of middle tier Melbourne Storm imports.
Wigan should be building their team around Tomkins not shoving him aside for Finch.'"
FAIL!!!
Finch only plays 6 for melborne because they have one of the best in the world in Cronk.
at wigan finch will play 7 and tomkins 6 with tommy moving to hooker. its very simple really.
hoffman replaces bailey, and lima replaces feka which even the biggest wigan haters admit is good business. |

Some impressive strengthening by your good selves. Not a Wigan fan by any stretch of the imagination, but you look to be assembling the squad to beat next year and already have the coach, fanbase and infrastructure to top the competition. Quite depressing for everyone else TBH.  |

A fail in his attempt to convince everyone and probably himself that the signing of finch in someway is a bad move for wigan.
And the rest is in pretty plain english my friend.

If only Hull Fc had the coach and the Wigan mindset, they too could have it all!!

I don't think he's saying its a bad move for you lads, just that he's probably more needed in our team. When you have an international 6 and 7 but are lacking a hooker (with riddell leaving) wouldn't it make more sense to go and sign a top quality hooker rather than convert your scrum half. yes I know leuluai has played well there before but I reckon he's better at 7 complimemnting the man you should be building your team around for the next 10 years in sam tompkins. I wouldn't be messing him about by playing him at full back either as he looks the most naturally talented stand off I've seen in many a year. |

We have Micky Mcilurom whos getting better every game he plays.I personally believe hes going to be a star.
Adding to him Tomkins Number 3 whos going to be knocking on the door soon..we have enough at hooker
we were crying out for a top scrum half..i dont and never have believed tommy is good enough there. |
