What was the agenda of the meeting?

No worries NickykKiss has answred it for me.

Beltin' news.

Sam, Sam will tear you apart again.

You forgot top of the agenda! I.E Bringing back "Pie Man" as mascot!

yes sam wants to play for his hometown club....but the reason he has extended his contract is bcos hes been offered more money....and fair play to the lad he really deserves it....and also a regular place in the 1st team.....its bout time wigan started to reward local talent....and stopped wasting big money on these aussies...take note mr lenegen

We're applying for planning permission to build a privately funded stadium off Warrington Road.

On the topic of Sam Tomkins - did anyone else notice that during the interview with sky sports Sam said Nobby was going to play him at fullback



Maybe the management see him as a fullback and are looking to sign a stand off and keep Leuluai at 7 - McIlorum and Riddell at nine - release Phelps and put Sam Tomkins at 1.

Could that not have been if Carmont had to come off, leaving Phelps and Bailey as the only fit players in the 17 who could play Centre?

Yeah that makes more sense

The thing is, you just wouldn't put it past us to do something like that!

This your first week watching the game, then?

Excellent!!

Great News!!!!!!

Now for IL to give him the platform from which he can show his talents!

A pack consisting of 2 'No nonsense, Rough Tough Ba$tard' props who make the hard yards.
Plus

A Top Quality halfback partner.

Anyone think this is the 1st big step in IL's often mentioned "Long term planning"

Either way its a great step in the club protecting its most promising youngster in years.

Very good news.

We need to do all we can to formulate a monster pack now to make the most of his talents.

great news from the club [for a change

This is superb news.

He has an unbelieavable desire to win does Sam.

One of the most pleasing sights on Sunday wasnt Richards racing away in the last minute, or Phil Bailey scoring a couple of tries - It was the two sides of Sam Tomkins.

-

When he scored his try, the delight on his face was there for all to see, jumped in the air to celebrate.

When he kicked that out on the full, watch it again if youve recorded it and watch the despair on his face. Immediatly his head is in his hands and hes apologising and using a couple of choice words to describe his kick to himself.

Both of these show he is a winner and he wants to wear that Wigan shirt, and add that to his talent and he'll do fine for me.

Fantastic news.

Sam has undoubtedly been the best thing to happen to Wigan this season by some distance. He has come into a struggling team and more than held his own and been better than we all could of expected.

He's got all the attributes to be a world class player and long term I see him as our number 7 for a very long time.

The best thing about him for me is his attitude. Very calm, level headed lad who would bleed cherry and white. Got the potential to go down as a true Wigan great

Dropping the 'Warriors' tag and playing 'Entry of the Gladiators' as the teams come out !!!!!!!!!..................we can only dream

I was very impressed with Tomkins at Craven Park on sunday. Out played both Dobson and Cooke and ran the show. Very good prospect, in fact I'd say the better of two good young players when put alongside Richie Myler.

Does anybody now where this will rank Sam in the way of earnings, does this new contract make him one of the say top 5 earners, or is it like a sliding scale increasing each year.
