If you're referring to his interests he has in Quins, I'm under the impression he has to divest these fairly shortly. He's not involved in their management therefore there's no conflict of interest.

Didnt he come out and say he would not poach any quins players when he first took over ?

That was then, this is now. Surely enough time has passed that any approach would be a simple transfer request? Quins can always say no.

Surely if sold this would pay for a rather nice town centre shop/pub/museum? hint hint.

Gotta be honest, I can't see Tim Smith being at Wigan much longer. No way Noble can drop Sam after his performances and I just don't see how and where Smith will fit in to the team. Pity as he actually is a good talent.

I can see him coming off the bench and moving TL to hooker.

Yeah but then where does McIllorum fit in? He is a great young prospect and he certainly did his first team oppurtunities no harm tonight.
