Good to see the WEP on the ball again with the Gleeson rumour - not. Most nationals have got it now.

Out-rage-ous. See you in court.
As for that bit at the bottom. What a load of crap - are you suggesting that Rugby League clubs would create phantom transfers just to avoid directly dealing with a club even if the end result is identical? Say, involving Bradford, Saints and Wigan for example? It'll never happen. |

And due to complicated Kolpak and EU trading rules we end up with David Vaealiki back... |

I'm unsure about Gleeson signing for Wigan, we definitely need a decent centre for the right hand side of the field. But, if the rumours are true, do you think Gleeson is the ideal signing if one of our young players is going the other way, with regards Goulding?
Now, Shenton, he'd be a cracking signing! Not that it'll happen.

Sounds as convincing as anything I’ve heard up to now. |

Wane given IL's perceived penny pinching attitude (so he would not buy out a coaches contract from elsewhere).
If IL suddenly finds a deep pocket then take your pick. Noble wasn't available when we got him.

Maybe Wane doesn't want the job and is happy working part time with the reserves... |

Just heard this one is on the brink of collapse. Apparently, Whathuira won't play ball, so he is being replaced by fifty gallons of Neopolitan ice cream and a box of mint Matchmakers. |

So you keep saying. There's a lot of stuff on this thread - can you confirm that it's Gleeson for Mathers and Goulding? |
