And you are who exactly ?

A fan of over 50 years like me ?

ok chump bet you wasn`t saying that when we played for you grow up hey!!!!

thought he was a good player for us wingers always got a good ratio of tries playing outside him

I will defiently looking forward to watching him walk out on the 29th

TBH I was suprised how quiet he was yesterday, I expected a big game from him.

Obviously dont see him evry week like befor but he is a quality player and his wingers always got loads of tries.

And maybe if his winger didn't overun the play all the time.. roberts might have scored some more... I would like to see gleeson and ainscough(if fit?) on the right side on Friday... and lets get some revenge...

I imagine a lot of warrington fans will be at the jjb on friday...no time to sulk... we need to concentrate on our super league from now... unfortunately...

i agree. He has made it quite clear that all he ever dreamed about was playing for wigan,so whatever other club he plays/played at you know there isnt going to be that commitment or he isnt going to put all his effort in...as he has shown at the wire. i was quite glad to see the back of him IMHO...

Yes i am...

So will i cause i'm a fan of RL... I hope he does well, but i think he will have a very busy day. I could not see any of the 3 other semi-finalists beating Saints, i'm sad to say... But that the beauty of sport, who knows, maybe saints will lose later today...

Gleeson came with a world class rep. Has he been world class at Wigan? Not even close.

Rubbish signing

mathers is just a badge kissing player hugger who pats players s when they score to cover up that he is average at best phelps is learning the fullback role and was easy better than mathers in all areas yesterday despite playing in a losing team

Gleeson was awful yesterday

He improved our defense on Roberts side 200% had a quite game yesterday but now and again that can happen.

Shouldnt happen in big games. Hes an international and should eb able to raise himself for it.

He is and as long as Carmont is there always will be the 2nd best centre at the club

A young, ambitious, relatively raw but has potential, centre, who I presume will be keen to impress his international coach, or an aging international centre, clearly going through the motions??...I know which one I'd take, and which one that will, in the long-term, improve the side...

Yep I agree with that, never did ouwt for us, did well getting mathers in the exchange deal.

I HATE these comments. Mo and his bunch of yes men RUINED wigan rugby league in their last few years. Forever chasing big signings and not making the signings we needed. We lost an entire generation of young players because we couldn't afford their wage, that's why IL had to sign the likes of Phelps and Mathers and Pryce.

Under IL Wigan RL are going forwards, we are making good steps towards being self-supporting, money is going into youth talent and not ing Vealiki.

Just because we lost a semi final you seem to believe that the current leadership is poor and can't take us forward as a club.

Well, your a complete and utter moron.

Pryce at 60k a year isnt pinching is it?......You do realsie Mo was in charge of Wigan in the 80's and 90's dont you?

Of course I do, Mo and 3 other board members took us back up from division two to our most recent glory period. Thats why I said final few years.

At Saints and Warrington they have moves that put centres into defensive holes because of dummy runners and Gleeson looked good. We don't do that at Wigan so don't blame Gleeson. It's the coaches fault.

Some people don't understand that most outside backs need the players inside them to make space. If they aren't making breaks it's all their fault, simple as that, no other reason at all.

People who see the game that way clearly have no idea, and will argue with you until their heart stops or you just give up and accept their lack of knowledge and let them think they've won an argument.

I've said for years our attack is amateurish, the flat line we adopt offers no depth and no players hitting the ball at speed. That combined with no dummy runners creates no options for the half backs, and completely no options for the outside backs.

Then we have the fact our forwards couldn't roll over a speed bump in a steam roller. Add all this together and you'll find a team pretty void of ideas.

I still can't believe what we got for him, your negotiating skills leave alot to be desired.

could he just smile a bit more he looks a right moaning sod ,its not fair why me lets face it he he did not play rugby he would be putting fillings in pies cheer up martin you could be working for a living

am i missing something here...? wire fans claiming gleeson never did anything for us...the world's gone mad!

did he come to the hj for the love of the club..? did he hell, but then i'd rather have talent than some emotional loyalty...

look at his stats for us, well, look at his wingers stats...how many times was fa'afili near the top of the try scoring charts..?

the briers to gleeson to fa'afili combination was probably the most effective attack in sl for at least 2 seasons...

i'd have him back tomorrow

Don't let facts get in the way of a one-eyed bigotted opinion...

The swap of these two players was the best for all concerned.... End of..
