That could have been announced in ten minutes flat instead of drip feeding it over 4+ hours . Like a kid at Christmas opening box after box only to find out that Santa forgot what he wanted .

It just proves what a good job Wane did last season to get this rabble to the title (in additional to the quality that left). It feels a lot like when Ferguson got an ageing ManU to the title in his last season - look at the mess there since then.

We need some precision major surgery to get a squad that can compete for trophies again. Unfortunately we have Radlinski a.k.a. Dr Nick Riviera (ask your kids) doing the operation.

Difficult decisions need to be made to look at quality rather than quantity - then we announce Clubb and Hankinson extensions.

Think it's harsh on Bibby that at least give him a chance for crying out loud not even played game for us yet!!!!


Ah I get it, we’re not allowed to judge a player we’ve already seen playing for another team until he plays for us?

Riiiiiiiight.

He’s an average player who plays in positions we already have covered in winger, centre and the back row. He’s no better than what we have currently, though I’d put him above Hankinson. A pointless signing and a waste of cap money IMHO.

As always, happy to be proved wrong and will happily post said apology, but sadly I’m being proven right more times than I’d like this season.

Clark and Smithies are true only positives from today (I’m discounting Wells and Partington as I personally haven’t seen enough to comment either way).

The rest is disappointing. And that’s putting it extremely mildly. Poor show from the club today and further shows the contempt of which it’s treating its fans.

Sammut, Clubb, Bibby and Hankinson are not players that are of sufficient quality to actually challenge for trophies and catch Saints/Warrington up. 2019 will be poor, 2020 doesn’t look much better as it stands.

Mr Lenaghan - you wonder why fans are staying away. The answer is slapping you in the face with our current squad and coaching set up.


I'm not exactly happy with most of today, but 100% Warrior? I dread to think how negative you would be towards the club if you were 90% Warrior.

We (Tigers) are looking at Griffin at Salford instead. Confirmed by John Wells recently that Tigers are not interested in TT from Wigan.


He was just trying to throw the other 27 teams who want him off the scent!

Must admit I thought we were going to be here all night with hourly announcements. Still to be settled:

Head Coach Position.
Williams Exit.
Lockers future.
Escare future.
Sarginson future.
New half back.
Any other new signings.

I'm a bit underwhelmed today.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

So I’m not allowed to criticise when I deem fit because of my username? Come off it sunshine. When there’s positivity, I post it. I’m generally a balanced poster but with the state of this season so far it has been overwhelmingly negative, as have most other posters on here. Care to have a pop at anyone else bud? Or does your wit start and end at usernames?

I haven't seen you post a single positive comment. You probably complained at the Grand Final that we missed all our kicks at goal.
