I would like to see something like this

1 Richards (Save hands goal kicking machine)
2 (CAP space) Speedy winger different to the dodgy quick step winger like Ainscough is. (Think of the difference between Offiah and Robinson, (Ainscough being Robinson)
3 Goulding (Could be a good GB centre given time and confidence)
4 (CAP space) (World class centre with experience think Gasnier/Cooper)
5 Ainscough (Quick step winger)
6 Tomkins (Teamed with Smith to lead the team round the park)
7 Smith (With Tomkins 2 natrually skilled halvebacks)
8 (CAP space) (Enforcer prop with experience think Ruben Wiki etc)
9 Tommy (Will be an awesome 9)
10 O'Carroll (Smashing the ball up swap with Feka)
11 Hansen (Work horse strong def tackler)
12 Lockers (Work horse strong def tackler)
13 J Tomkins (Creative strong true loose)

14 Feka (Impact to swap with O Carroll)
15 Hock (Impact to swap with one of the SR
16 (CAP SPACE Hooker) Very key role, someone quick off the mark lead the team around the park with tommy
17 Precott (Good prop to swap with number 8 enforcer)

Squad to be build up of young based players all fighting for their chance to break into the first team.

Wigan to lose

Mathers
Phelps
Roberts
Riddell
Bailey
Coley
Fielden

Bring in

Winger-(maybe keep Amos)
Top centre
Enforcer prop
Quick hooker for interchange.

It isn't feasible at all.
How much would it cost to buy out the contracts of
Roberts - contracted until end 2012
Rddell- contracted until end 2010
Fielden - contracted until end 2010

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

THIS IS A FUTURE TEAM! 2010 is next year!

Robert possibly could be the winger anyway.

It's HIGH feasible considering 13 of the 17 players listed already play for the team!

End of 2010 before those players are off contract, two years away.

Plus we all know there are ways around contracts thesedays. Ask Trent Barrett if you don't believe me.

But the team is very realistic considering the amount of current Wigan players in the line up.

I hope you see it as a potentially good team with many good reasonings for it.

The fact is that I've managed to make a pretty decent team from players we offloaded to other teams and become a success. Luke Robinson is better than Leuluai. Oh and forgot about Danny Orr too, he was a class player and he got rid of him. Also, Danny Tickle, he is far better than Phil Bailey is. And are you saying that you'd rather have mathers or even that usless peice of so and so Roberts at Full-Back?

My record at Headingley

09/06/06 L 22-48
05/10/07 L 6-36
31/05/08 L 16 – 23

Adding them with the british prospects we have now and i think this could challenge the current Wigan team. Apart from Hansen who was English at one point but did come through the ranks

1. Briscoe
2. Calderwood
3. Hodgeson
4. Goulding
5. Aspinwall
6. O'Loughlin
7. Robinson
8. Fielden
9. Higham
10. Hargreaves
11. Gilmour
12. Johnson
13. J.Tomkins

14. Hansen
15. Aspinwall
16. S. Tomkins
17. Brown

That team would get mullered IMO and is far worse than we currently have (and nobby doesnt even select the main team)....added to that you'd need to clone aspinwall to get him on the bench as well as on the wing. The only players I would have out of that team that arent still here are briscoe and johnson.

IMO if noble selected our team properly (and had the ability to actually coach more than one out rugby) we would have a team capable of winning the league.....if we had a coach like anderson / mick potter / justin morgan etc. added to the team below I think we would be grand finalists at the very least;

Richards
Roberts
Goulding
Carmont
Ainscough
S Tompkins
Smith
Fielden
Leuleui
Prescott
Mossop
O'Loughlin
J Tompkins
--------------
Hock
Feka
Pryce
Phelps
