South Sydney coach Michael Maguire.
will not go head to head with St Helens for Wigan’s Aussie playmaker Brett Finch, the ex-Warriors boss now has his sights on 23-year-old Cumbria forward Lee Mossop and the fourth Burgess brother, prop forward Tom, 20, from Bradford Bulls

i havent read an article anywhere about it but i am guessing its nosey parker? because someone said on here the other day that maguire now wants mossop.

To be honest, let him try and get Mossop. He will have to pay a lot of money to buy out his contract.

Losing all the Burgess brothers is a shame for super league really and Bradford especially.

If Finch has no offers from the NRL I would expect him to choose Wigan over saints.

It is in the Sun sports column.

If Finch chooses saints over wigan, we'll soon find out because we wont see him again in a wigan shirt.

Isn't Lima out of contract? I thought he had a 3rd year option but he decided to go back to the NRL instead

Wigan agreed to release him I believe. I'm sure he just had a set three year deal.

Waney should give Maguire a bell and tell him politely to keep his hands off our under contract players.

Most of the reports suggest he wants to play for a Sydney based team, they probably have gave him a good offer but I really couldn't see Finch finishing his career in a noncompetitive mediocre team he'd rather play for less at Wigan.
