me neither but twice the player he was at wakefield, started first season at wigan awful but seems to have got better

I'm the same , I'm not sure if it's his hair that flys all over when running that makes him look a powerful strong runner or that he just gets no where and flatters to deceive . Either way he doesn't seem consistent enough for me !

Heard there's nothing in the Tangata rumour and apparently it's likely Ellis will hang up his boots and is looking at a two year coaching gig with us.

He seemed to cut back on the dirt and thuggery towards the end of last season and has become as much better player for it. Unless there are reasons we don't know about, which may be as simple as cost, then I'd be surprised if Wigan got rid as he's been better than a lot of their recent overseas players.

I think he is playing with a niggling injury at the moment which is why his game time has been reduced

Really? I think he's being managed due this silly part of the year. April has 6 games. A quarter of the year in a single month. Makes sense. Came on v Leeds and was still the player that fired us up and got us moving in a way mini Taylor watts etc hadnt. Ended up the only forward over 100 metres. Defence goes without saying

He's both

He can be a bit of a penalty machine at times and given our discipline this season I am not sure that would be good.

How long is Elloitt Whitehead contracted for in the NRL??

Have to say I've been impressed by Lama Tasi at Salford now he seems to have sorted himself out.

Guess it all depends on available cap space as to how Radford & Motu will shape the team next season and wouldn't surprise me if they are pretty much done on that front as seem to like to get things done early and kept quiet.

Think the likes of Michaels and Thompson may well go end of the season too as no point having a quota slot sat in the stands and as although Thompson is ok I think with the likes of Hadley, Turgut, Fash, Matongo etc we are better served pushing them.

I'd be happy with mcgillvary and Bateman for next season !

Ukuma Taia from Huddersfield wouldn't be a bad shout if they continue to struggle again this year. Saying that, i like the look of Jake Mamo from them as well, would go great on the wing for us. Reminds me of Colin Best with his pace

Think we all would, but that just isn't going to happen.

Why not ?

Yeah..Why not? If we we can stump up a several 100 thousand in fees and free up a few 100 thousand in cap I'd do it. Come on Adam..pull ya finger out

James Graham?

Would be a perfect ellis replacement for sure

Newcastle.

Centre half?

No idea on his contract situation but Murdoch-Masilla is looking a real handful this year from what I've seen although admittedly that is mostly highlights.

Signed a new deal about 2 weeks ago.

Type of player we need though

Still got this and next year I believe. He's very happy though and has talked about staying in Australia for longer

Weird post. He's literally the least dirty forward we've ever had. Most of his penalties were holding down/interference. He's been sensational for the last 12+ months, second to Bateman as our best forward. We would miss him a lot if he was to leave.

Well I suppose 11 cases brought up for the disciplinary review committee, 2 of which ended up with suspensions for grubby cannonball tackles in 2016 is sparklingly clean behaviour by Wigan's dirty standards. By any other team lacking Wigan's dedication to cheating then it is viewed differently. But he did indeed clean his act up at the end of last season and was a much better player.

i was thinking the same.

No chance of Graham on about 400k plus in the NRL, doubt that any SL club would pay that for one player even if he was a marquee player, pretty sure Pearson won't.

Think we can forget about any top NRL players coming unless it's the end of their career.
