I'm sure there's no need to be so cryptic. The club leaks like a sieve. If you tell us what you've heard, no-one's going to trace it back to anyone in particular. There'll be no payback.

Well my mate at the club would loose his job if they did

How would anyone know?

I get told things all the time by my mate at the club. I get sworn to secrecy, and then a day later get told the same thing by some bloke in a town centre pub.

No-one's going to trace these leaks.

Ok here it is, IL has hired me as a secret assassin, if Andy Greg says anything, he's history.

Tomkins to fullback - talk sense

We need a 7 and 10. They have to be of top quality, if Dobson is OOC at KR we need to offer him a chance to return, on proper money this time, not on the cheap as so many of our signings.

Long, Why? Where is the long term planning in that given his injury record.

Myler - as good as he may be, our fans are to impatient, and would not wait for he and Sam to develop.

Orford - World class in every sense, good injury record and whilst getting on, is a better player than long.

Orford & O'Meley for me.

Dobson agreed to a contract and then came back asking for a better deal. In all Dobson was offered 3 contracts and then went to Hull KR.

This is in no way a pop at Dobson, I do not blame him for making his time over here worthwhile.

However it does disregard the urban myth that we aren't prepared to offer up players financially.

That would be very good in the short term regarding Orford but what would we do when he leaves in 2 years?

If the club are going to get a stop gap signing they need to have a plan in place for when he leaves but who would there be to replace him when he left?

If we could get O'Meley back to his rep form he would be an awesome signing but there is always going to be the doubt that he could end up a poor signing which would be a huge blow

Orford is a good player, but i seriously dont understand why Wigan fans want these kind of players. You would get a couple of years out of him and then what? Sign another Aussie journeyman??? Ever heard of building a team?

BTW O'Meley will never get back to his rep days, thats just wishful thinking.
