Looks like Carl Webbs employers are getting impatient........
"I said to Carl that if he did receive an offer from Wigan we would be happy to sit down and talk it through with them and have an open mind," Parr said.
"But there's no offer forthcoming as yet.
"To be honest the longer it goes the less likely we would be looking at it favourably.
"If we were to let Carl go we would want a player of similar calibre to take his place."
They want a replacement.
Hey Stuey..................do you like Kangaroos & Koala's?

Always seen what point you are trying to make. Back to the original post was with regards to Webb, who isn't the type of prop we need.
If you look at our team the pack doesn't make enough yards and barely troubles the line. (bar Hock). We need someone to 'enforce' himself onto the game. play for the first 30-35mins leading by example working hard as well as being a dominate force.
An impact prop (2omin spells) isn't on long enough to be an enforcer.
We need an enforcer who is a leader and capt figure. i.e Bailey, Morley Peacock, Cayless.

Yeah. I have a different approach to props than halves. I think an experienced prop with a good work ethic, a will to win, a natural leader and a hard nut will is something the pack is lacking.

Bailey and Cayless are the realistic options. I think Cayless ticks every box. Cayless never really has a bad game, this is what we need, consistency.
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

Not sure if Bailey is. He's a Origin starter and getting in to the Rep side more and more. Recently been starting on the bench as an interchange for Petro and Price.
I think as joint capt of Titans, he'll wanna stay where he is and progress, it's only a matter of time before he's a starter for the national team with both Price and Petro being 35.

Bailey has said he's defo coming to superleague but only for 2011. He should be our number 1 target to replace Fielden imo.
It's been rumoured for a long while that he wants to come to the UK.
