If any half decent centre is available, I would release Carmont without question, very committed player, but his poor defence has got us a fair few times this year.
Leeds rumoured to be looking @ Atkins, I think we could do worse than enquire.

I said about 2 years ago Atkins is the long term replacement for Senior.
Matt Cooper would be nice to replace Carmont
Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

If it was a choice between Atkins or Cooper, for me it would be Atkins, surely we've has are hands burnt to many times by overseas stars.
If were looking for a player in a certain position I personally would go British every time if possible, for a number of different reasons.
Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.
Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

I'd possibly go and propose to leneghan if he could somehow convince cas to let us have shenton, whilst at the same time swapping fielden for Myler*.....

Atkins is a good player without doubt but would we be willing to pay the transfer fee. I'm not so sure.
I wanna win the EuroMillions so i can donate £2m quid to the club on the promise it will be used on transfer fees to buy the playes we need out of their contracts
Atkins/Shenton, Briscoe, Myler, Burgess and Pritchard will do for me.

The events of today has convinced me even more that our new coach should be Brian McDermott.
Well I am not sure about McDermott but I am glad at least you and AJ share my reservations about Lam. I thought I was the only one who thought it would not be a good move given the situation we are in and what actually needs sorting out.

I share them too. He hasn't done anything like enough as a coach to convince me that he'd improve us in any way, let alone in the vital areas where we are so plainly lacking.
