Exactly...you don't sell your best players, and if you do...you make sure it isn't to a rival....all of Wigan's best end up abroad.
Wigan won't allow Gildart to join Wire or Saints.
Burrell will be playing soon. He's in good shape.

I think Burrell will be playing at Loose to allow Philbin to revert back to Prop where we’ve missed him as we’re so light in the front row.

Atkins and Goodwin on their way out leaves us with King at Centre.

We’ll need another Centre.

Huh?
Burrell at Loose!
I can except playing a prop at loose when we play with a half(generally) at fullback...or at the very least a backrower that is team seasoned and has good hands...but Burrell?

To be fair from what i've seen that could be a could position for him, but as he's not olayed league for a long time i'm unsure exactly what to think until i've actually seen him play for us

Well it would be good to see him as useful as Lockers.
He's gonna need time in structure as he absorbs the game. Centre for me...at least for this season.

I see Burrell playing on the wing to start with until he gets the hang of the game.

We have an ideal candidate for loose forward but he is supposed to be leaving . I'm sure Atkins would love the freedom to play all over the pitch. Stick Burrell in the centre & shows our imported shirkers the door.

Atkins loose forward?
I'm not biting.
