Just stand behind Sean Long in the bookies.

I'd like to see him at Wakey for the rest of this season - his class and experience would be a massive help. I can't see it though - it's not in the script.

windies for me

Happy if he comes for short term, but you'd think Widnes would be favourite.

Short term superlaegue deal somewhere, maybe Hull, this year then widnes next.

We should try and go all out for him.

Would love to see him at the Wildcats, top quality player, and disappointed he has left Wigan, but i would expect as others have stated he will pick up a short term deal, either with Salford or Hull then, potentially move to Widnes for next year.

Still has a lot to offer to the game, just makes you wonder how good he could have been had his head been on for 100% of his career, as it does seem off the pitch he continually lets himself down.

Unlikely imo but stranger things have happened.
I agree with the notion that there is no point Glover spending significant amounts of money only for us to be demoted anyway, however I can't help thinking that a big signing of this nature would do a lot of good as we move forward.

A signing like Gleeson could be self financing though. Improved performance on the pitch = increase in crowd.

And we need a centre because ?????

Could he play 6? and anyway isn't Dean a back rower ideally?

Good players don't come available easily in our position. We shoul at least be looking at the merits and costs of the move

Because we concede alot of tries out wide and dont feed our wingers that well. He would ease both problems. Oh and hes better than wat we got

To play in the halves so the match day squad will have some points to show for their endeavour.

If his head is in the right place I'd sign him!
I don't think anyone should put too much stock in the wording of Wigans press release, Gleeson will want to get back to playing asap,

If he was committed then a right centre wing partnership of Gleeson/Johnson could be a handful for most teams.

Absolutely - young Johnson has got all the tools and is a cracking athlete, he's just not getting regular service (a bit like being married) - Gleeson could make a huge difference.

Gleeson wont come cheap and i dont think gleesons defence is the best anyway !! Why cant we sign a proper 6 from australia when glovers papers come through?? I dont think gleeson would make over much difference my opinion.

We have said all season lots of effort but no quality,but if you want quality it don`t come cheap. We need a strike player and Gleeson is now available its a no brainer if the funds are there imo

Odd, considered by many to be one of the strongest parts of his game.

he thinks we are talking of Sean

He is a fantastic defender! He hits like a second rower.

What's the big thing about Aussies? Gleeson is a GB test international (who should have gone down under last year IMO) and is easily the best British centre we (as in GB, not Wakefield) have had in years.

Gleeson would be an exceptional signing, and IMO he would be the catalyst we require to take us forward this year. His defence is brilliant, and his attack is magical at times, so I hope that we do everything we can to try and sign him. Would I have him at 6 or at centre? Probably centre for me. This would allow Dean to move into the second row, and further improve our strong forward pack.

Maybe he's a secret HKR fan - they love their Antipods in that neck of the woods.
