I meant centre mate sorry

Obviously big rumours flying about that Warrington may have snared Myler, just wondering whether people would be disappointed that he may have gone to them. Personally I would be disappointed if he didn't come to us and went to a local rival, would rather he stayed where he is than strengthen them.

Plus I'm sure many fear as I do that as times goes by players that were hopeful of signing are snapped up by other clubs leaving us with no other choice but to go with second rate Aussies, hope I'm wrong I really do.

Being disappointed by something like this depends on whether Myler was ever on our radar. Lots of people are saying we should be in for Myler, but TBH that's a matter of opinion.

Rumours are also flying around that an awful lot of money would be involved. Plus, we already have a very exciting, very young halfback in Sam, who may see such a signing as a direct challenge to his first team chances. Those are pretty two reasons why the club may not have targeted Myler.

I'd be sorry to see him join Wire, but I doubt he was ever going to stay at Salford.

As a possible pill-sweetener, there's also a rumour going round that Wire will release cap space for him by allowing Morley to join us.

What would people think about that?

what we need to be honest, no nonsense big prop with a reputation. He ran straight through us the other week.

I'd just wonder how much £££'s he'd be on, surely him and Fielden would command close to a quarter of the cap between them.

True striking the balance has to be the main priority and reassurances would have to be given to S Tompkins before a deal was struck.
As for the possible chance of signing Morley although an excellent player and a comparison between the two is difficult due to age and position, in my eyes having a maximum possible service out of Morley of 3 years when he is already 32 or a possible 12 years out of Myler I know which id prefer, and I would imagine that at present Morley would certainly soak up more of the salary cap.

I know it all hearsay at the moment but i feel that having a player like morley in the team could really benefit Fielden. It would allow him to get stuck in knowing that he would have back up. somthing he aint had whilst with us. i think they are pretty good mates also??

If the introduction of Morley could turn around Fieldens form into that of his Bradford days, certainly that front row would have to go down as the best starting front row in Superleague. Although there are a couple of IF's to say the least

Morley is the best prop in superleague at present and one of the top 10 props in the world over the last 10 years IMO.

I seem to recall him saying in the WEP that when his contract ran out with the Rosters he would give Wigan first refusal. I wish we had signed him.

We should have signed him when he left the Roosters.

Still then we had a pretty decent pack. O'Conner, Smith etc.

Myler would be a great long term prospect. For me there is one simple choice for Wigan. That is Brett Kimmorley. Great organiser and is not afraid of shouting the odds. Exactly the type of player in which Tomkins could develop with over the next 2 years. Further, he is 30 years old now, so will leave the NRL.
