But But But he's not squeaky clean, or Greg Inglis, so obviously a bad signing

There was only 1 incident of indiscipline at Wigan.

Most of our 'big' signings seem to be Forwards can't remember when we signed someone of the Calibre of Gleeson in the backs really ? Sing ?

Never mind,its not really your worry,is it?

Time will tell my friend, all we can do is hope he knuckles down and delivers on the pitch, I am sure you will agree he is a quality player so I am sure you will understand why the club have taken a punt.

He was kicked out of Wire for not being 100% commited, make of that what you want.

He's a solid player, who looks after his winger indeed. Although, I fear his best days might be behind him at Saints and at Warrington, time will tell though.

If it all goes pear shaped,so what? after Hutch and Thorman I think we can take anything that doesn`t work out.

By kicked out you mean sold for 100 grand plus Richie Mathers?

Do we know why it was 18 month contract, was it the club or the player pushing for it, i thought the plan was always gonna be to sign till end of season and go from there

Him and Longy had a punt on it at the bookies.

Thats what I thought they paid a handsome sum for this supposed wire reject.

Or another way you could (and should ) of put that is, "Moran paid £200k for Gleeson and put pressure on him to play when not 100% fit. When the inevitable arguements started about why he was not winning games single handedly, he was shown the door"

Is he available for Saturday ?

At what point did the club ever say that?

Apparantly not according to F.C. site

Anyway Welcome Martin. We have missed a decent right centre for S.o Long

Signed too late to play this weekend.

Derby day hattrick debut

Ok lets be honest here, what has happened is that we have signed a player that was arguably the best centre in the comp last year, can score for fun, tackles like a second row and still has speed to burn.
He fills a position we have needed speed in for a wee while and to have gained a short term contract with Martin right now could be just the tonic AND injection of class we need at this stage and just might MIGHT be the final piece in the jigsaw that makes us a complete team given that most issues recently have come down that side of the team...

He brings speed , quality , guille and strength when we need those qualities most ....
could be THE signing of recent times I believe he is that good...if ever there was a marque player signing this is it..

well done Shaun, Phelpsy and Richard, lets hope he enjoys his time enough to stay the next season also....

FWIW I think you are right. I am simply hoping that he realises that this is his last chance saloon and knuckles down. If this means another year for longy though, then it will be bad news IMO

So much bull. 'if ever there was a marque signing'... err no. He's already here for next season.

Get Ogre and Sam signed up and the good news coming !

so the guy widely regarded as the best centre in the Uk is not a marque signing, and who said he isnt here for next season then
