If he were just an "england international centre" I wouldn't worry. It's the "booted out of two major SL clubs" that's the problem.

Gleesons been fantastic recently when he's not been shoved to 6.
I'm gutted to be losing him, just hope the board have an adequate replacement which Paul Johnson..isnt.
I'm also disappointed that after playing well Riley will be shafted again in favour of Mathers.
Disappointing deal all round for mine, something tells me its some sort of clash with Smith or maybe the bad egg wasnt Briers all along?

If Riley is a SL FB at this stage I'm Richie Mathers.

Gilmour is a true professional with a near impeccable history. Comparing him to Gleeson is pretty thick.

We must not forget that Martin Gleeson plays guitar and sings, and that Wigan owner Ian Lenagan is a writer and producer of stage plays. Gleeson may well be being groomed for the West End!

Also it was Martin Gleeson whose tooth embedded itself in the arm bone of the musically tone deaf Wigan centre Jamie Ainscough, thereby cutting short a brilliant rugby league career. What irony!

On behalf of all singer/guitar players everywhere, I offer the above edit.

Congratulations to Wigan on signing a 29yo crock who's best days are behind him.

Crock? He's missed something like ten games in four years.

Pointless arguing back.

A VT thread involving Wigan is going to be negative, regardless.
