We need to bring in a kicker if nothing else. Soward's a pretty good one isn't he?

That said, it's a shame (assuming Finch stays) that both of our halves will be Australian again. I know we have some players in the Academy and Mellor/Powell aren't dead just yet, but this country really need to start producing quality halves!

The rumour of Gaskell really intrigues me. Someone that I could see turning into a real star at Wigan behind this pack.

I personally can't see us getting Soward if Finch stays, I think it'll be one or the other.

The first couple of games i saw him playing reminded me of a young Tony Myler, if Brown takes Brough with him to Lavotree Park next season expect Gaskell to come to Wigan.

He's an excellent kicker.

Couldn't agree more, at Hull were reportedly after a half with Horne going to fb, if we do that next season all four halfs on humberside will be oversesas.

Micky Mac - New contract?
Finch - New contract?

We let him go as a junior. He's not going to shift Charnley or Richards!
