Gleeson would strengthen our backs 100 per cent.

Okay, he has his problems and isnt exactly the greatest player we could ever sign, but he isnt the oldest.. and he is better than the rest of our centre options bar Carmont, although on his day he is probably on par with him.

I'd love to see Goulding come back after a year however.

It's a tricky one for me. Yes he's a quality player but who misses out? If he goes to fullback then Richards moves to wing and either Ainscough or Roberts miss out. Roberts has a 4 year deal so he won't be replaced and Ainscough is a promising young player, and arguably our player of the year so far, so he shouldn't be dropped.

There are other positions I'd rather strengthen at the moment.

Good player but overrated and we have far higher priorities.

Hope this is the WEP just looking for things to print again. We need a prop before a full back.

I'm sure his wage demands alone will render this a non-starter.

Hopefully so.
When exactly is the 'announcement' going to be made?

Views seem to vary. Some say today, some say in two weeks. Some say there will be no announcement.

Apparently the guy confirmed it himself in the delph this weekend

Gleeson IS set to sign for Wigan, my understanding however is that it is for 2010.

Mathers will be out of Wigan in the next few weeks.
