Where does he go from here?

What a waste of talent

Widnes

the pub?

Saw the title of this thread, and thought

Lager, bitter, wine, schnapps or turpentine

decisions, decisions

Can't see any Superleague club touching him now with the amount of baggage he's carrying.

What a waste of talent.

Wigan still got the better deal you know.

5 posts, surprised it took that long.

Can't imagine any superleague club touching him now, he hasn't got the attitude or mentality to be a full-time rugby league player.

Salford I reckon hes Longs mate

Agree

Would be surprised if even Widnes would take a punt on him if and when he recovers from his 'illness'. Doubt we'll see play again personally.

This would be a 'massive punt' imo, MKC.

This fella is now SERIOUSLY USED GOODS. Whilst having undoubted talent, ANY club would be taking a massive risk on him, with his 'issues'. Salary cap limitations will see to this...he wont come cheap, and he may well "blow-up" again.

Sad to say, but he's an accident waiting to happen

Widnes. Would instantly be the best player there. Cullen already there.

The only way anyone would touch him in Super League would be pay as you play but thats a lot of messing for the salary cap.

Might end up at somewhere like Dewsbury or Wrexham

Wonder if Cull will resist the temptation Lefty? His old mate, a once top quality player who would command a hugely reduced contract from his Warrington/Wigan days. Month to month deal perhaps or more probably Widnes will continue to look at players who have a proven track record without the kindergarten mentality.

A sed up Gleeson would do a better job at centre than what they planned cuurently.

Although, I bet Ben Cross could do a brilliant job there if needed.

I can just see it now:

"This is nothing less than a sensational capture. This is a clear signal that we want to break into the top eight as a legitimate force. Martin Gleeson is still a real threat the world over and is one of the few players the Australian national team fear in terms of dynamic backs from these shores. We aim to provide him with the neccessary structure at Widnes to allow him to achieve his objective of getting back in to the England squad for the upcoming World Cup tournament." Cullen also refused to rule out signing Michael Wainwright, Henry Fa'afili and Warren Stevens.

and "we beat several top Australian clubs to his signature".

Yes because Gleeson helped them to become Super League champions.

This year since Gleeson left, Wigan have not looked like the same force they were a year ago.

There's only 2 people in this world who'd stick up for Martin Gleeson as much as you do, one is his mother and the other...

You are Sean Long and I claim my £5

why do people slate gleeson just look at his stats for us !

Widnes on a one year contract.

he will go to widnes

You know if he was open and honest and written a book about his highs and lows in and out of Rugby League it would be a fantastic Read and then perhaps peoples judgement of his character and of him as a person would perhaps change overall..

I think any club at any level is taking on more that its worth in signing him, but i do think he'll have a few clubs ringing and having a chat, Widnes, Salford(though Parish may wanna steer clear of this type of signing), Wakey, maybe Quins would all at least have a chat i would assume
