Heard Gregson wanted out, unhappy with the way Wane treats other players, they had a fall out. Radz spoke to Gregson and now he's going.
Bretherton has been told to expect to be on loan or find another club.
FPN removed himself from the other players group WhatsApp chat, he's all but gone.

Lockers was disgusted with the offer Wigan offered him, so he's pushing for Toronto.

Also heard Joel has been given another 2 year deal.

Somehow this dire pediction no longer feels quite so dire.

Lockers has signed a new deal with us.
Didn't see FPN or Bretherton at last night's dinner.
Maybe some of those unhappy players at Wire may arrive at Wigan.

The only one I’d take is Currie so no doubt we will re-sign Jack Hughes

Well, we all know that FPN has been a big disappointment, and I'm not sure what Bretherton contributes. They're both big lads, and yet they play like lightweights.

We're allegedly all in agreement that we want to construct a new team at Wigan (as much as is possible). So I suppose cutting loose those who are obviously doing nothing would at least start clearing some valuable cap space.

I'd take Hill in a heartbeat, probably Ratchford too.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 02, 2017 10:25 am  

I'd be willing to swap a whole host of players for Chris Hill or Ben Currie.

Is there supposed to be issues over at the Wire?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 02, 2017 11:07 am  

What issues are there at Warrington? Big enough to see Ben Currie, Ratchford or Hill leave? Currie would be an outstanding purchase, but I would imagine Saints, Leeds, Hull and even Cas would be interested too!

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 02, 2017 11:18 am  

I love Currie, but do we need another backrower. Now we've re-signed Lockers, that's one area where we aren't weak.

For sheer practicality, I would prefer Hill and/or Ratchford.

Hill allegedly signing for Hull KR.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 02, 2017 12:30 pm  

If Hill is available and we have the cap space we should be doing all we can to sign him.
