waah waah waah we cant buy titles any more

Maybe if you werent paying fielden you wouldnt have to release them?

Wonder how long before you release your present crop of wunderkind and replace them with middling ockers.

Over who?

Teams need balance, Wild was poor for us after a promising start his knee injury set him back a long way. Teams need a defensive second row and a strike secondrow. Wild is a strike second row, so we are holding him against Hock. Hock every time. As a centre Wild over Carmont and Gleeson not yet.

As a squad player without the cap would have been worth potentially hanging on to but that is not the case anymore. his last 2 years he was poor at Wigan and had to go and would not be a significant improvement on what we currently have in my opinion. Next?!

But you do not produce as much of it as Wigan and the restrictions of the cap mean we cannot keep them all.

Out of interest which young talent are Wigan weaker for, for releasing?

Lee Mossop, I would have released Fielden and kept Mossop in the 17.

Wild is a lot more than a strike second row, he is one of if not the best defender in the league. No doubt you made a mistake letting him go!

Our chairman made it clear on our local radio after the game tonight that Lee Mossop will be back in Wigan colours next season.

Glad to hear he's going well for you though.

What you gotta ask yourself is was this statement made in the press in the hope our chairman realises he may have to part with more money than he was hoping to have to pay get him??

We have all read the press before..."absolutely not interested"..."we will not be signing..." and hey presto 48 hours later..."Our latest coup is...." the one and the same!

There is a long time before next season so time will tell.

Am impressed by him though, thought he did really well.
