Remember being stood there on the crumbling steps thinking have we trained together this week. We could have done better then by just picking 17 from the crowd and playing them. The best thing from that year was the second half of the season when Noble came and the fans got behind the club big time some of the best times i have had supporting the club great memories that will live with me forever.

Never rated Sean Gleeson, he wasn't given the chances because he wasn't good enough.

A good coach will create a good balance between 3 tiers at a RL club.

-Youth players coming through (Think Ainscough Tomkins)
-Established players who have been brought through the youth team (Think Hock, Lockers)
-And players we bring in (Think Gleeson, Roberts, Riddell etc)

For me this is how the system should work-

The bulk of the team, if possible consists of established players who have come through the Wigan system, you fill in the gaps with young emerging talent from the club then fill in the gaps with players brought in. If this is the system the CAP can be well worked and development and progression of younger players will happen.

You look within your own club first before elsewhere, only sign players for positions we can't fill with our own players.

For example

1
2
3
4
5 Ainscough Youngster
6 Tomkins Youngster
7
8
9
10
11 Hock EST
12 Tomkins EST
13 Lockers EST
------
14
15 Hansen EST
16
17

As you can see with Wigan there is a large amount of signed talent at the clubs to fill in the gaps. I would like to see the club to look more within before outward when developing our team.

Might be refering to Dave The Rave Vaeiliki? (sorry to bring him up again)

Ok so he's not an Aussie but he's from down that way and he'd be keeping SG out of a jersey.

If the team would have looked more inward over recent years we could have had a team of:

Briscoe
Richards Gleeson Carmont Ainscough
Tomkins Robinson
Fielden/Scully Newton O Carroll
Hock Wild
Lockers
------------
Feka Prescott Tommy Tomkins

Also with Chris Aston ready to play as a utility back.

I can't really remember Gleeson playing that much, in fact looking at cherry and white he only played 7 times so we can't say if he was good or bad. I think his article is overall pretty fair.

He's a solid player now for Wakey and I've seen him at most Wigan home games so good luck to the lad.
