| Quote tugglesf78="tugglesf78"Whilst i am really, really looking forward to seeing Ryan next year i think that we Wigan fans have an embarrassment of riches in the back row.
Lockers
Farrell
JT
Hansen
Mossop
Tuson
and possibly Hock
All of these players are Wigan produced and very capable , so i suppose that is why losing Hoffman would not be the end of the world.
Personally i am genuinely happy that he has signed and would not dream of getting rid.'"
i see your point, and your right that is a pretty good back row, but honestly, i dont see mossop being a big name in RL, hes a steady eddie, however tuson could be a star for you in the future, his heart is massive, and he will never give up, if im right he broke his nose and kept having a go in a match last year (stains at DW)! now i know theres other players that have done this, Jon Wilkin, Andy Farrell, but for a yound lad in a big game to say right get me back on! takes some cajones!
but i agree that ryan will be a big hitter next year (unfortunately)! still think super ben will sit him down though!

| Quote inside_man="inside_man"If he's comparing abilities, then it's a stupid point.
If it's in respect of their value for money, would inglis really offer 3 or 4 times as much as Carmont?'"
Im not comparing abilities at all, read my post, im talking about sticking with a CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING TEAM. Carmont and Gleeson have been absoulutely superb for us last season and my point was, why would we even consider buying a centre?? At no point what so ever have I said Greg Inglis is not a world class player, he is, and would love him at Wigan when Carmont's contract is up, but for the time being im quite happy with having IMO the best 2 centres in SL.

I don't think Tuson will have much of a future at Wigan, think he's just going to be too small.
As for Mossop, I think he could easily add a lot more bulk, and if he got a good run of games without injury I think he adds a lot to the side.

| Quote seanm89="seanm89"not meaning to be picky, but why is it a few of your fans (someone else mentioned getting rid) are keen on getting rid of the man monster hoffman, hes huge, looks like he will do a great deal of damage, and could be a key impact player for your squad. why?'"
It is hypothetical as it will never happen ie Inglis, I simply picked 3 players whose wages would probably equate to that of Inglis.
I am looking forward to Hoffman playing, and hope he has a long career at Wigan, but I would happily not have him, Carmont and Roberts if we could sign Inglis and I think we would be a better team.
Inglis in the centre, same back row as last year, Goulding or on the wing.

the thought of Inglis playing for wigan gives me a semi..no player in world rugby i would have more.

| Quote 21-12="21-12"Pat Richards, top try scorer and man of steel, has that got nothing to do with playing outside Carmont then? I am not saying Inglis isnt world class, I am saying that we won the grand final with these 2 centres so no, I wouldnt want a new centre, id rather stick to what we know we can trust.'"
Chris Riley scored a shedload and he's average. the centre mean's little. I rate Carmont though.

All fans tend to lean towards their own team. But that is a stupid comment.

yes it it. Gleeson probably finished the season as the form centre I'll give you that. But the notion that Carmont is brilliant and one of the two best is a reach. Matt King for one is much better.

on last seasons for I disagree, Carmont is one of the best defending centres in the league and the amount of tries Richards and Pryce scored outside him this and last year and Ainscough last year speaks for itself

It doesn't reallky though. Like with us, alot of Wigan's play is created from the slick passing on the middle with the centre alot of the time making the final pass. In O'Loughlin you probably have the best passer of a ball for a forward in SL and with Tomkins chiming in the line, alot of misdirection is used. It's not as if Carmont is beating three or four through his own brilliance then putting the wingers in is it.
