I would love to have Sam Tomkins playing for the `wire` after Hodgo has done his stint that is.... No matter what wire fans think of him he is class and would fit beautifully into the back line....Comments ?

When Tomkins sign his last |Wigan deal he was "prohibitted" from talking to RU or the NRL. nothing was mentioned about other SL teams though. As for would I want him............................Nope. Both Leeds and Warrington showed in a brief period of time how to deal with Tomkins. Not long before others do the same.

i'm sure he'd love to play for his hometown.

good reply,bout sums it up i think

Milton Keynes have a rugby league team?

Tomkins is a quality playmaker and is exceptional in broken play, However there are big cracks in his game which as MikeJ points out teams are picking up on. (for example he is dire under a high ball).

Personally, I wouldn't want him at Warrington.

Anyone who says wouldn't want him is kidding themselves or just talking rubbish. He's not commonly regarded as the best player in Super League for no reason.

However, he'll either stay at Wigan for his entire career or see out his contract then go to union or Australia so we won't be signing him. The only way we ever will is if he does go to RU or Aus then decides to return to SL and we throw money at him, but IF that ever happens it will be a good few years after Hodgson retires.

This. Tomkins is a quality player, Every super league club would love him at their club.

This. He might have some problems that teams are starting to exploit, like the high bomb, but sensible play can remove that (e.g. more pressure on the opposing kickers), or moving him away from full back into the halves. I think a major part of how we and others have been neutralising him is that Wigan's entire setup is based primarily around him, which I hope would not be the case here. Could you imagine how much difficulty a team would have trying to pin down a combination like Tomkins, Myler and Ratchford at the same time? If they practice their kicking some more, I reckon that would be a killer England pivot setup...

Ah right, didn't realise he's finished now. James Roby must also be finished since we totally shut him down at Saints away. Yep, may as well release them both so they can see their dwindling careers out at Widnes.

Yes i'd have him but at FB, over Ratchford? No

In the halves
