Would be a cracking signing but already checked contracted till 2010.

There's talk on the Bradford forum of Thorman going to them, so we may have dodged a bullet there.

My argument isn't against the players...it's the coaching I'm not keen on. Two wins have quietened the tide of opinion against Noble but looking at the wins shows nothing has changed.

Oh yes, the other try by Joel was individual as well ( he wasn't put through a hole).

Why?







No, do you with having your beliefs challenged?



Especially those with no factual basis? Unless you do have a factual basis, in which case why not tell us what it is?

We all appreciate the number of players IL has brought on a budget limited by the salary cap.

Where a lot of us are frustrated is that our priority signings should have been prop forwards.

When Noble arrived he presumably told Mo that Fielden would come to Wigan but it would cost a fortune. Mo forked out the money, a world record fee, and we got the then outstanding forward in British Rugby League. Once saved from relegation Noble & Mo signed Coley early 2007 for the 2008 season.

It was evident then to me Noble wanted to rebuild our pack starting with the prioity as we, and he, saw it the front row.

Since then, over two years, we haven't signed a single prop and we've had an underpowered pack ever since.

Unless we sign a quality prop and preferably two then we will struggle again next season to make the eight.

If IL wants us to challenge for trophies then two quality props are an absolute must. We've got real quality in the back row and after that a top quality half back is all we need.

It won't take much at all to put Wigan challenging for trophies, three top quality players, two props and a half back.

And of course, a chairman who'll sign them!

As I have already said, because I don't believe a player of a reasonably young age, playing rep rugby both Origin and National, being chased by several clubs would come over for less than a large sum more than he would of been in Australia. I think it would therefore be more than 200k.



I don't have facts and figures (and never claimed to) I just don't think he would be on less than that. If you don't agree with me, thats up to you and I couldn't care less.

By "us" do you mean the wigan fans who frequent this board.



Or, do you mean you and your like minded Trolls who offer nothing apart from the usual Boll*^ks??



Mate, just do one

All I want to know is what you base your opinion on?







Are you his knight in shining armour coming to protect him?

I think hes made it quite, Aussie international/NSW rep wont come cheap.

he's told you about 10 times what he's basing his opinion on, the fact that king was a current kangaroo and SOO regular, and going off reported salaries from other players who aren't even in the aus and soo sides make, i too find it unlikely that king will be on less than 200k.



you've come on here saying what are we basing our opinion on, have you got any proof? or is yours just opinions and hearsay as well?

Read my post again instead of picking selective bits and you will find (again) what I base my opinion on. If other people on here can clearly spot it why can't you? Unless you have already seen that bit in which case what are you getting at? I never claimed to have facts but you seem to go on as if I did.



I think your the one that needs a knight in shining armour to save you from further embarrassment

Would love to see him at Wigan, always been a fan, big and strong enough to move to prop as well.
