Gleesen is singing for THIS SEASON onwards. Could even feature against Barrow.

Now if this doesnt come off, you have to stand on the pitch against Saints at home and let Feka run at you six times. (Although after two runs, Prescott will have to replace him

Thought i'd add it before someone else did)

Gleeson 1st try against Saints if it does happen? worth a quid.

I'll take that!



He'll be coming. Question is, will people be happy to see the back of Goulding? Or is it another young Wigan player fired off before his time?

I was told the announcement was today (Monday) or tomorrow (Tuesday) and was told that last week thought the lad was pulling my P!$$er when he told me but looking like he was right.

In an ideal world I'd like to see the back of Phelps instead of Goulding. I think Goulding has been unfortunate in that he has been the scapegoat for some of the poor defence shown i n the earlier rounds. But saying that he hasn't shown a lot of promise recently.

I really want to believe this and the fact that it's not Tricky Dicky posting it makes me think it's true

Sooner see Phelps and Mathers on their way than Goulding.

Interesting to see what happens to Bailey or a possible back row shuffle when Gleeson takes the centre spot.

Back row shuffle-wish I could have thought of something better to call it!

Well i was told Smith was one of them in the deal. I know Goulding wants out but thought he was going over to Yorkshire not to Wire.

cracking deal if its true

I'm happy with Goulding being released. Its best for him and the club.

Clubs will have to focus more on youth programmes with the new quota restrictions coming in but with the salary cap you have also have to be ruthless. Standards have dropped at Wigan, even amongst the fans - people are happy with a level of performance that wouldn't have been accepted 5 or so years ago.

The club needs to realise some players whilst decent on their day aren't good enough to take Wigan to where they want to be. The likes of Leuluai in his scrum half role, the new and most certainly not improved Fielden, Coley etc.

And when it comes to the younger players, I still can't think of players we've released who could take us to where we want to be. Robinson, Brown, Wild etc have thrived on being the big fishes in the small pond and thankfully we are seeing small amounts of their potential be turned into ability. But they're still not good enough to turn Wigan into champions. The mistakes have been the recruitment of players, not the releasing of players.

We need to get our recruitment right and be more ruthless with many players at our club who have had their chances. And that includes the younger generation such as Goulding and Mcilorum, Prescott/O'Carroll etc.

only 1 person who can do that and hes due to arrive on the 12th April
