God knows! I don't think Richards and Feka count because they were signed before the rules were first thought of and Hansen and Leuluai count as homegrown so that leaves- Phelps Roberts Carmont Smith Riddell Bailey thats our 6 for this year with it having to go down to 5 next year. Smith will defo leave as more then likely will Bailey but then Phelps and Carmont are off contract aswell but i'd expect to be signed up. We could have as many as 3 spots or possibly none dependant on what the club decides to do.

its 6 for 2010 and 5 for 2011, with smith gone you should be fine, but might need to offload phelps for pollards dutyfree shopping!

Until giving him a crack at fullback i'd have said Phelps was a shoe-in to be freed at the end of the year but now i'm not too sure at all.

I actually think they may let Carmont go before him due to his age.

if pryce starts to show some of his former class at centre, that might be the way forward

Carmont doesn't do anything either.

Karl Pryce never had class. He was big and played on the wing in a decent Bradford side. How hard was that? Harold Bishop could have played there and got 30 a season.

Too true.

Wigan have a young centre named Ian Thornley who plays at academy / reserves level.
He is big and very fast, I jut hope he doesn't get moved into the pack.

He will fit into the first team well at Wigan. He has already perfected the art of how to pass a ball forward. ( Wigan scored a try off one of his last week and then you went on to win by one point. ) He is a big lad but I wouldn't say he is a secod rower by any means.

Again like Richards it's a bad indication of where superleagues at because after Gidley he's the leagues best centre.
