My sources tell me that next year, St Helens will be without Lee Gilmour too. A trip back over the Pennines could well be in the pipeline for him.
Cracking player, but we've signed a centre in soliola for next year, and Wheeler can cover there very well (better than Gilmour IMO).
We're pretty heavy on good back rowers too, so I can see the thinking - especially if he's after a 2 year deal a la Longy.
If we use his and Longy's cap space on upgrades for the youngsters and a prop, I'd be happy. Cayless will also be on his way (barring miraculous form on his return from injury and a reduced deal) and we're under the cap this year, so we're likely to have a fair few quid to play with next year, even with Soliola in and several upgrades.
