Imagine if you had kept Eden, Arundel, Shenton (albeit he has returned) and Westerman with some other players like Lynch, Manu & Brough.

Greg Eden
Kirk Dixon
Michael Shenton
Joe Arundel
Richard Owen
Rangi Chase
Danny Brough
Andy Lynch
Daryl Clark
Craig Huby
Brett Ferres
Willie Manu
Joe Westerman

A completely different team. You'd certainly be challenging with that side.

I think he may be referring to Clark and if he is he's right to be fair.

Some great players have come through at Cas but then they always seem to move on. It's the price you pay for being such a small town punching way above it's weight. They're a cracking club....even if they don't like us much.

Please god, no

Richard Fa'aoso was a beast the year Cas had Manu too, he would stroll into the team anywhere in the pack.

Chase has done a great job trying to do so much on his own at Cas. If he came to wigan he would have his role and it would be alot more manageable. I think we would see the best of him. He has the ability to break the line and that is something we need.

please god no, chase is pants a one trick pony, a big fish in a small pond al a moran.

I am worried the club would accept the £350k. But i wouldn't. I would hold out for the Half a million.

The worry around the club, Is that we sell Chase, And none of the money will go back into the squad.

Poor mans Tommy but still probably one of the top 5 half backs in the league. Best realistic option available to us so get it done I say. My only fear would be is he too ball gready and is he enough of a team player, but certainly has it individually.

Clarke is the one I'd pay for - even though I like Logan Tomkins.

He's going to be a star.

The reason why you should stay and Wakefield should lose their license.

You fulfill the role of actually producing young talented (although flawed) players. Wakefield just leech off everyone else.

The tide may be turning though. Sunday's attendance... Cas 4877 Wakey 8986

but we dont need a hooker....we need halves.

Chase was excellent last year, but been anonymous this year, possibly down to Basil ???
Maybe hes sulking for a move?

I would be tempted to take the risk, but only if he was on a free....no way would i pay a fee.

How can Wigan afford all these players, surely they must be breaching the salary cap?

Tommy, Finch, Lima and carmont all leaving. Amos left during this season. ....... Next

"All", all what players?.............. We cheat, obviously..... You know how that works....

Come on, that's poor by your standards!

You will certainly get your wish in that case. No-one on Earth would even come close to paying that. I doubt they'll even come close to paying 350K.

Chase will then see out his contract at Cas, probably making no effort at all, and all that money you'll be paying him will be wasted. You'll probably finish up a couple of hundred grand down when you could have been a couple of hundred grand up - and you'll still have a new stadium to find.

Chase would be great, he creates space with no real options around him with the team he's in now. He knows how to play the game, I'm sure he will play however he's asked to. I he's in a team like ours with runners and options and the opposition knows hes capable of making a break it creates even more doubt and space for the guys hitting the gaps as they're worried about him going alone.

I'm beginning to think the trolls are running out of steam.

Things are going so well at Wigan under IL, there's no Mo to poke fun at, just a guy quietly going about his business of restoring Wigan to the top of RL and building a new golden era of success for the greatest club in the game; they thought the "Ape" would be an easy target - that backfired spectacularly; we've had an injury and suspension crisis that has done nothing except reveal that we are likely to have the strongest pack in SL for years to come; DW actually accommodated our cup game against Stains; we have the best British player since Hanley, the most exciting forward in SL and the best half back combination in SL...

It's all looking really grim for the Wigan haters. No wonder even their trolling is a bit half-hearted.

I'm lovin' it! What a great time to be a Wigan fan!

I miss uncle mo, its all too predictable under pollard

I have been highly critical of Rangi's thuggish behavior and inclusion in the England squad but I really do believe with a full pre season at Wigan and continued coaching with Harris and Wane he could be a devastating play maker at our team.

He would be a great signing. He always seems to have plenty of time to decide what to do when in possession. He will bring speed to the half-backs.

I'm not sure if he just looks good because of his surroundings. Not wanting to do cas down but they're not as good as Wigan and I'm not sure if In a Wigan side he would look distinctly average.

My brother was in Australia recently and saw Peter Sterling in a charity 7's game. He said he still looked class. Maybe he could do a turn. Although, he's not English, not like Rangi.

Surely thats abit unfair? Wakefield have produced a fair amount of good players still playing in superleague at the moment at bigger clubs.On top of that there would be pleanty of clubs that would get kicked out before us if your going on player production.
