As I say, it's a lovely thought. But I can't see it being more than that.
I dont know if the SBW will happen or not. Like the above posts he's always appeared to be motivated by $$$$'s. Now, if his own outlook on life has changed with new-found beliefs who knows. What I do know is that we are talking with the players management and things are moving quite fast. Who knows??
The fact that we are talking to such a player gives me a bit more confidence in the future. If this one doesn't happen then at least we know there's potential for another world-class player next season.
RE: Gleeson, I'm not sure, it's certainly not causing a major 'stir' around the club.
Odd to play SBW at 6, but he has great ball skills and has a quick turn of pace for a big man. could link up well with Tomkins to be the most dominate HBs in world rugby!
No need to play him at centre with Gleeson and Caromont, or in the SR with Farrell, Mossop, Tomkins Lockers and Hock.

Assuming this is not an April Fools wind up, could Leigh take Phelps because I'm sure in the Championship your only allowed one quota player - do Leigh have a quota player?
Sorry to troll, but no we do not have a quota player, thank you, bye.
you may think I'm an idiot, but it's nice to know I've been judged by my peers.

Can't see it happening.
SBW would tear SL apart at SO imo but i cant see it ever happening, not at wigan anyway

Yes, it appears Khoder Nasser is the prob with SBW. He starting becoming more and more troubled from his time with Mundine etc. Everyone wanted a piece of him and he seemed a little vulnerable and naive, as you'd expect at such a young age.
