| Warrington academy have won their last two games by a total of about 150 points, I'm not worried at our end.
Regarding the Wigan situation, Hansen chooses to represent Samoa, doen't make him an overseas player. Leuleui was here from 18 and has been trained in this country, 3 years under 21.. i'd let this slide.

It looks as though Phelps, Feka, Bailey and Riddell are leaving.

Thats not even mentioning the ones in the lower leagues as well.
The current crop coming through are some of the best yet and if they can't make it at Wigan they will no doubt make it at other clubs. Just look at Charnley, thrown in against the champions in unfamiliar surroundings and yet you couldn't even tell it was his super league debut.

surely that begs the question why they need to be signing three or four more overseas players for next year?
if these players coming through are so good, why arent they replacing feka, bailey, phelps and riddell?

Four Aussies out (rumoured), three in (rumoured).
What's your point?

What if he drops the paper with his speach on, trips over his foot trying to catch it and hits his head on the table and forgets what he was going to do?

The ability to bring the younger players in when needed but not throw them in every match is the way to go if you simply remove all the experience then you are setting up for disaster, at the end of the day experience takes time and if wigan are looking at players like hoffman and lima this will only benefit the younger players in the long run

Id agree, but the players Wigan are rumoured to sign are a 2nd rower, a Prop and half back, areas where wigans development is apparently very strong.
you have in the 2nd row Hansen, and Tomkins, who are first team players, and Farrell, Tuson, and Mossop who will all be 21/22 next year, at that age they arent going to benefit from not getting game time
at Prop Davies is 20, Ryan Bailey had 3seasons under his belt, James Graham the same, Sam Burgess the same, Nick Scruton had 2, Luke Ambler has 2 seasons of lower league and this of SL under his belt and he is the same age as Davies. If he has the quality to make it, why at this stage of his career is he only fit for 6th choice prop?
Dont get me wrong, across the board we need to cut down, including at my own club. But it seems strange that Wigan are making such huge noises regarding their youth development yet going overseas for 1/2 their match day squad.

This season in particular it has shown us that we need a big squad. not much has been made of the injuries at Wigan but we have had Bailey, O'Loughlin, Hansen, Roberts, Phelps, O'Carroll and McIllorum out for long periods during the course of this season. luckily we've had the strength in depth to get through these periods. it looks like we're doing the same for next season and rather than having a good team, we're running with a good squad.

Hardly trained in the UK. Leuluai might only have been 18 but he had played NRL and Test rugby for NZ before he came to the UK.
