in the back pocket springs to mind

Pocket wasn't what I thought

i bet this was tho'!!!!!!!!!

I heard a rumour over the weekend that Stuart Fielden could be signing for Hull for next season.

been mentioned on here for a few weeks now.what do wigan fans think??

Berrigan
Houghton

Fielden
O'Meley
Moa
Dowes

Manu
Lauaki
Fitzgibbon


Radders
Burnett
Washy

Not too shabby.

He's still one of the top props in the country. In four and a half seasons at Wigan he has only missed about ten games. In reality it would all depend on his asking salary. If it were at a reasonable £120K - £140K then I would like to keep him at Wigan on a two year deal, any more than that would probably be too much of a risk.

Good. I sincerely hope that it eats away at his soul in the small hours of the night.

i suppose it depends on how much hull would be prepared to pay in terms of salary?£140k-doubt fc will pay him that.depends on how much agar really wanted him i suppose.

Fielden has improved a lot over the last few years since he stopped playing the full 80. Wouldn't be too disappointed at signing him, but it would add fuel to the Dad's Army fire

arnt we at full salary now if so then would have to release a few players just to get fielden, for me centre and winger are more important but woundt mind fielden though has improved over the last 2 years.

how old is he?

31, 2 year deal to replace Cusack would be great business, maybe needs a change, people said O meley and Fitz where too old and finished.

fielden for cusack would be great business and would improve the pack dramatically

Providing Fieldon would take the pay cut to come. We wouldnt pay him anywhere near his current salary at Wigan.

£££££££££££££££££-
fielden £140k??
cusack£ ???

cusack,hall,calderwood-combined salary of ??.then we would still need a centre and a winger at least!!!we could be pushing it a bit

well im not sure on players salary but obviously fielden wont be given the same amount of money on what hes on at the moment you would presume but still can see him wanting 100k-140k. now cusack surely coundt of been on more then 70-80k now that would mean at leaste someone like radders having to be released to make up the money. would you be happy with us releasing radders and cusack for fielden

Raynor's pay-off as well. I like Fielden, but not worth £140k.

We wouldn't need a centre next season if Berrigan stays and plays there, which he should from now on IMO. The season after that his salary could be used on securing a top class centre (if one is available).

hmmm,forgot about that.what about king???

i know i was just reading what dave k said about what good business that would be cusack for fielden.
i agree that centres and wingers need to be sorted

We got Yak on the cheap this season so there is no chance he could be replaced by Fielden without some additional money. That said Tickle is also likely to leave so there will be additional money to use there although we might want a backrower too I would guess. There is also the money used on King and Raynor.

I dont think youre figures will be far wrong. Fieldon needs to understand though that he's not a GB international anymore. I'd offer him the 70-80k that Cusack is on and say take it or leave it. Dont think he's worth any more than that.

i wonder if wigan have offered a contract at all?
