Maguire coaches the backs at Melbourne


No wonder Lenagan wanted him, he's probably got a list of 27 wingers and 21 centres for McGuire to look through and decide which to sign :D

He's give him £15 to sign a prop forward.

Snigger. :lol:

In fairness, Roberts on a 4yr contract, which defy's all precident (Sam aside) from IL in contract deals still puzzles me to this day.

Bailey should be released, and depending how his body will hold up, Carmont should maybe go the same way - now before I get flamed, if we are to ever make ago of Pryce or Goulding, now needs to be the time, and given George's age and the fact he is falling apart, perhaps we need to release him. That being said, I would be happy with a year.

McGuire in - Wane Assistant.

That would mean we need to appoint a new reserve coach & potentially a conditioner depending if McGuire see's value in Forshaw or indeed if he goes with Noble.

Lyon, Rads & Pendelbury you would assume would remain in their current roles.

Then we really need to make a decision about players, we need cover at half to enable Gleeson/Locky to remain in their proper positions, unless the reserve 7 is likely to be able to step up next year - Rogues thoughts??

I would really like us to sign a prop and loan O'Carroll out for the season, maybe send him to Celtic to work with Noble?

Following that, id like to see a pre-season that didn't involve a holiday island, Rivington is still a big hill isn't it? :D

I wish Noble was still head coach & I also don't believe he was treated properly, but its not going to happen, so its time to back the new coach as far as the playing side goes.

I really hope we aren't disapointed on Wednesday.


You can't possibly get rid of Carmont the guy is giving his all for us every week and was our best player for the first 20mins on Friday.

George Carmont has played on through injury for many a game and really deserves a new deal for sure I will be really peeved if he doesn't as Pryce/Goulding are good enough to lace his boots.

One more year for George and see how Goulding and Pryce go and next year if none of them are good enough to make it then sign Matt Cooper/top aussie.






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

I agree he should get a year, but will he take it given he wants 2. I hope he does get one, but I hope he is fit enough to last a year, at some point all those injuries will catch up with him.

Carmont is worth a years deal with a years mututal option imo but if he isn't willing to accept that and is demanding 2 years or nothing we may be forced into calling his bluff.

I really hope things work out between the club(Lenagan) and Carmont. To lose him from a squad that doesn't look like being added to would be a huge blow.

Spot on, he's been so awesome for us through injury that I really do believe that with a rest in the off season he's got one last quality season in him. By then we'll know for sure whether Pryce and Goulding are ever going to step up too.

Id happily get shut of em both.
Pryce is the biggest waste of space we've had in years and Goulding is simply not superleague standard Im afraid. He isnt big enough, cant pass and he cant tackle






ANCIENT & LOYAL UPON MY CHEST

Ancient and loyal, upon my chest
they are men of wigans best
a team that plaaayed, the wigan way
and won the championship in may

jim sullivan, he was the king
brian mctigue and johnny ring
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the championship in may

when eric ashton was alive
and billy boston by his side
with dave bolton and billy blan
oh what a time to be a fan

in 85, at wem-ber-ly
john ferguson and brett kenny
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the challenge cup in may

in 95 we won them all
tuigamala, faz and paul
a team that played the wigan way
and won the championship in may

Goulding will be a decent squad player on a solely cover basis.

As for Pryce you just can't coach people into growing a pair of boll*cks or a heart so on that basis i'd be happy enough to show him the door.

Well they're both off contract at the end of next season so it'll definitely be last chance saloon, and as you say I can't see either getting a new contract from what I've seen.

I like Goulding for his passion but I don't think he has the skill for a top super league centre. He made his debut in '05, surely would have a regular spot by now if he was good enough. Pryce has had a poor season in the first team with the odd flash of talent but a very good year in the reserves by all accounts. Now the fans are on his back so it's going to be hard for him, but I still hold out more hope for him than Goulding to be honest, because he does have potential, he just needs to apply it.

Having said that the very obvious opportunity for a 2011 first team shirt will be up for grabs all season so maybe they will compete for it and we might see one emerge as Carmont's successor, or they might carry on where they left off and both would be sent packing, leaving us with a new signing and Thornley as cover.

I mean purely if we set the bar of world class as players like Inglis, Slater, Hayne etc then I really don't believe we have anybody in SL even close to that level of ability.

Harsh i know, but just my opinion.
