Part of the risk would be losing one of the quality youngsters I guess - 3 full backs? Think we lost Briscoe years ago as he was wanting to play more regular first team rugby

Loads to spend in which way? Salary cap limits us regardless and more of a risk is on a player who was being listed last month as potentially being finished.

If we sign him as a player, we use him as a player - we have coaches to coach players

If its Charnley or Wade then its Charnley for me

Fine with it!

Isn't this a moot point anyway as most rumours have him nailed on going to Oldham once his contract with Leigh is up?

Going off his comments about his situation, that seems to have been put to bed, with him wanting to continue in Superleague. Now, maybe Big Nige suggests we go to 14 teams next year and the ridiculous situation comes about where teams can basically buy their way in to the league and Oldham do it and it may be back on but it sounded very much like it's now a last resort sort of move for him. 

Just been reading on another forum that since that interview was recorded (which was before our game), he's kissed and made up with Lam/Leigh and a new deal has been signed at Leigh. Not sure if there is any truth in it but it would make sense from their point of view IMO. He's still a good player and better than Leigh's other wingers.
