Why? To enable Wigan and other clubs to offer a more attractive package to those players who may well be targets for other codes/countries with deeper pockets.



If we hadn't lost Coley, Gleeson, Deacon, Hoffman et al this season and wanted to keep Sam for Wigan and England RL, the same principle applies. The 'extra' added on if used for Sam is well worth it.



It is reasonable to suggest that Wigan can use their existing cap space to recruit players to replace those that we have lost.

To be fair, George Carmont was a middle of the road NRL centre when Wigan signed him. He's not done too bad though

If wigan want to sign a centre from the NRL they can do - there's nothing wrong with that, and indeed Carmont has been a good player (as he was in the NRL). I'm just pointing out that Lenaghan's recent quotes regarding how the club wasn't going to look to the NRL for a centre seem at odds with signing a centre from the NRL less than a week later. If he is just a punt on a junior then fair enough, let's hope that some of the other British junior centres at Wigan also get a run this year.

More importantly, why was he sacked for having a poo in a hotel. I do it all the time when I'm working away from home. Should I be worried?

How long before all the poo jokes are dumped on us?

It might have helped if you hadn't got the "quote" wrong.



Hmmm....

But the rules don't only benefit Wigan, do they? It's a rule applied across the board to all clubs.



I can just see you turning green and shaking like a leaf every time Wigan is mentioned. Why don't you just start supporting them? You'd be a lot less angry and jealous that way.



Or maybe you should see a counsellor?

I agree with Nicky Kiss, i dont think he even made an NRL debut, he was playing in the toyota cup when he was sacked, hes going to cost next to nothing, plus as others have mentioned wigaley, dean have also now lost hoffman, coley, deacon, o'carroll and gleeson, so i cant see the logic of this post.,

oh and joel as well

lol at another SL club signing an NRL no name.

lolsaddened.

There's nothing sadder than saddened

Perhaps starting with Saddened! staging a dirty protest in his capacious underpants.
