| Quote ="Duckman"Not too bothered about burns, other than the general annoyance that our toughest champ rival have signed 3 halfs whilst we failed to sign 1. I'd have taken him but he's probably not exactly what we need. I'm more bothered about missing out on drinkwater if we were in for him. But having said that we clearly don't want to get in a bidding war on salaries with Leigh as we'd lose or end up paying over the odds.
On the bright side at least now even leigh might not need any more halfbacks! But I'm thinking we arent going to get one now before the 8's and we'll have to go with some combination of addy/gaskell/Thomas/mathers, with my choice being Thomas 7 and gaskell 6, addy 13 and mathers filing in to rest gaskell at 6 when we can.'"
I think that sums things up well. Perhaps we're being unfair and the change of coach has halted some deals going through? I'm probably being over generous though and it really is frustrating that we've left if this long to fill the shirt and still no news heading into June. Hoping and praying that plenty of deals are being thrashed out as we speak and in a few weeks time this frustration will be long forgotten. Hey I'm an optimist... most of the the time! |

Absolutely no substance in it whatsoever Bully
Can see him leaving Wigan if it's all true though |

I think he did actually play a bit of 6 in his younger days, but it would still be a square peg in a round hole situation.
I agree with Roger though, I think there may be punishment, but I'd be amazed if he ended up leaving Wigan. For any reason, as obviously there's nothing to speculate on or suggest has happened.... ahem. |

He did, played mostly at 6 in his junior days and came of the bench at 16 to make his debut for the first team (Dudley Hill) at full back against Stanley rangers tore them to shreds and created match winning try in extra time. Then started the next game at stand off, scored and got MOM. Not that im saying he should be playing 6 now tho haha |

Even if Bateman were to leave Wigan (unlikely IMO, as Wane absolutely loves him), there'd be a queue of suitors a mile long before he'd need to consider playing for the Bulls again...

The rumour is a fall out between Bateman & Mossop. The former is in the top 3 British backrowers at the moment, the latter is, was & always will be a pudding. There's only one of those will be leaving Pie land. |

If that's his true intention then the smart thing to do would be to drop down a level now, put in two good years and then have a career-ending stretch in prison.

| Quote ="HamsterChops"I feel a little for Ben Reynolds.
He's constantly the "backup" halfback at Leigh, and every time it looks like he might get a chance, they bring someone else in and he goes back to being backup. To make matters worse for him, they brought him back from Dewsbury where he would have had a regular spot all season, when Brierley left and Rangi went on "a break", but now he's stuffed back in the reserves again once Drinkwater gets here.
If I were Reynolds, I'd be asking for a move by now, as they don't seem to want him.'"
Rest assured that Ben Reynolds is very highly rated by Leigh. So much so that he recently signed a 3 year deal to stay at the club.
Up until this weekend, He has been the League Express MOM for the past 3 consecutive Leigh games so that alone should confirm to Leigh how valuable a prospect he is in the game.
Even if Leigh start with Travis Burns and Josh Drinkwater on Sunday, I expect young Ben to be in the 17. Not only is he one of the game's brightest up and coming 7's he can competently cover a variety of alternative positions.
I rate him very highly. |

If he ends up back at the Bulls then it will probably be the end of his career. |

Haven't been following the NRL recently so I'm not sure what's happened for him to be dropped, but you could argue that a Jamie Soward in the worst form of his life would still be enough for the championship over here and is, pretty much, [iexactly[/i the type of signing we need to make.
So for that reason, I fully expect it to not happen

| I think the Bulls might cop some flak for the headline of that email
I know it's technically true but there will be people opening that expecting a bit more than just a month's loan of an academy player! |
