I would have thought my comment about watching them against Barrow on sunday would make it about as recent as possible

I'd have Flanagan back in a heartbeat, in addition to 2nd row and stand off he can also cover the centres AND if what I heard a month ago is true, he's told Wigan if they want him to get game time outside of the Wigan set up then he will only play for Fax and no one else.

Just the sort of thing to get right up Wigan's nose.
Their attitude will surely be "you'll play where we say".

Could negotiate his own release. Then come to fax...
