Do they mean the end of their season, or ours?

Difficult to see him being ready to play in the RL World Cup if he leaves it until the end of our season.

He is certainly big enoug to play prop, had decent turn of pace could be a useful interchange prop. Harris should know if he is up to the task or not.

Why should sale have the right to announce us as his new club? We've obviously not announced it yet for a reason, couldn't they just say he's leaving sale at the end of the season? Bet IFL is pi*sed off!!

They can do what they want really.

They will use it as a way to end any speculation etc.

Perhaps they didn't want him to do an 'Ashton' and break the news himself, while posing in a Wigan shirt.

Andy Powell "signed for Wigan for three years" : Tue Apr 09, 2013 1:22 pm  
Steve Diamond Sales director of rugby has stated;

"Andy won't be with us next year.

"He's signed for Wigan for three years, although I don't know the in-depth details of the contract."

BBC also reports Steve had hoped to keep the 31-year-old Wales international forward, who has been with Sale since May 2011, at the Salford City Stadium.


http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/22066635

3 years seems a little risky considering he's 31 and would be 35 when his contract with us finishes, furthermore he's a novice to rugby league and if Sale wanted to keep hold of him he must be demanding quite a proportion of the cap compared to the Wigan youngsters.

The extent of his coaching is ''BASH EM, JUST F*CKING BASH EM. HE'S LOW ON CONFIDENCE, BASH HIM''

He's a limited coach that won't last long term.

That would make Wigan strong favourites then. With Ratchford at FB and Patton with Cronk in the halves, I think we'll do very well without Sam.

Sale have the right to do what they wish. They Dimes clearly wanted to tell his fans what was going on and thats exactly what he has done. Cant imagine he wants anything at the club not focused on staying in the Aviva Prem.

Rugby Union: When entertainment just isn't your thing.

I've heard the RFL will be funding his wages and so therefore he will be exempt from the salary cap.
