Why would Reed come to Wigan? He starts for Brisbane.
Tommy isn't a 7, this is old news, he shouldn't be considered there, we've moved on, discovered he's an excellent 9 (sadly nearly 12 months after the NZ selectors but nevertheless)
McM isn't even good enough to play interchange 9 so having him play more minutes is another idea we should have moved on from.
Logan isn't ready and probably never will be up to scratch, his surname is helping him out too much.
Cadberry has more potential.
Mellor/Powell both not ready to be a starting player in the halves at Wigan. Usually we play them for a year or so in NL1 then on loan at another SL club, if they look to be doing well then bring them back into the club with a focus on graduation to the first team (Charnley/Tuson/Mossop for examples) This has not happened.

We are short this year in key positions. simple as that. we need to make do with what we have.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.

His contract runs out at the end of 2012.

maybe he loves it here who knows?, just saying what was said on tv, you got to look at it this way, he has pledged his allegance to England so i doubt there will be any SOO or Aus call ups coming in the future unless he becomes a better player than Joey Johns, so there is nothing stopping him coming to the UK, as the saying goes, he's pi55ed on his chips as far as the Aussies are concerned In My Opinion (internationally that is)

Re: Rumours and signings v8 : Mon Nov 07, 2011 3:31 pm  
So with Joel leaving, where does this leave us at this moment with confirmed players?

1. Tomkins
2. Charnley
3.
4. Carmont
5. Richards
6. Finch
7.
8. Fielden
9. Leuluai
10. Lima
11. Hock
12. Hansen
13. O'Loughlin

14. Lauaki
15. Mossop
16. McIllorum
17. Prescott

Others: Liam Farrell / Chris Tuson / Darrell Goulding / Stefan Marsh / Dom Crosby / Joe Mellor / Jack Hughes / Amos Roberts

That doesnt fill me at all with confidence. An injury to a prop and we are in big trouble. We are also missing several key positions in the backs.
