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.

Hull have set their stall out, Long, Fitsgibbon, O Mealy and Tansey are 4 big signings for them.
Saints have announced Soliola who is a huge signing for them.
Hudds have sign Faolongo ( spelling) who again is a good player for them.
We need to sign 3 class players for next season as a minimum but probably 4 incl hocks replacement to keep pace with those other clubs.
I would go for 1 full back, 1 scrum half, 1 agressive hard working prop and 1 second rower.
Two of those players would be Briscoe and Wild who are both Wigan lads.
Regardless of what others say, I think Hull are looking pretty strong next year, they might be a little weak out wide, but some good signings for them.
By the way where the hell are Wigan's signings, everythings gone quite there's no rumours about, whats going on.
Regarding Ratchford plenty of people have mentioned how good he is, and again supposedly ran the show for Salford on Friday night. Phil Clarke mentioned only yesterday that he has the potential to be a better player than Myler and Turner and could turn into an old fashioned standoff, I say Lenegan get him signed up.
Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.
Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds
Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0
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!
We should send some players back to australia and get in Briscoe and a prop and maybe a half-back then we would be sorted.
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS
There was a story last week on one of the Aussie sites saying that Shan Troc was talking to a SL club but no names could be mentioned due to a confidentiality agreement.
Following Kearney's agent not being able to keep his mouth shut, maybe it is Wigan who are making agents and players they talk to sign a confidentiality agreement.
We maybe signing exactly the players we want but until the club decides to make an announcement there won't be any leaks of info at all to the press, Aussie or UK.
This is all ok for the club but the uncertainty for the supporters is not good especially when other clubs have announced some if not all of their signings for next year.
The club though does have to protect itself and after the Kearney shambles it is very understandable that they could be working with confidentiality agreements.
