Great player Furner, one we should have kept. One of the toughest players you will ever meet.

Bobby Goulding could have been a fantastic long term 7 for us
IMO I think that both club and player will realise that it was a lost opportunity at the time due to his indiscretions



Gregory tried his best whilst at the club but it sadly didn't ever work out,but I will still give him the respect that he deserves

Shaun Wane on the other hand is a complete hypocrite as he was one of worst signings that we have ever made and he showed none of the qualities that he now demands from his Wigan players as being capable of a Wigan type performance each week

I'd bet that he made less meters whilst at Leeds than any of his recent front rowers at Wigan in Clubb,Flower and Sutton at that would be pretty low

Gary Connelly man of match 2003 cc final was he not a Wiganer thou he played for saints or was it the other way round?

He's from St.Helens.

I'm not certain but I thought that Connolly started at Blackbrook ameteur club in St Helens?

Barrie Mac imo

To be fair to Wane, he wasn't anything like a star player when we signed him. He was what he always was - a small, immobile prop. In reality its amazing he had the career he did given his limitations.

Of the ones mentioned Goulding was the biggest loss IMO. We exchanged him for Tait and some cash, but Tait was always a bit overrated in my book, and certainly did nothing for us in big games. Had Goulding stayed we might have been spared the Holroyd/Schofield halfback pairing, and Goulding's strengths were almost exactly Schofield's weaknesses, and vice versa.
