Fair enough. He'd be a good signing if something is genuinely in it.
He's not got massive minutes at Wigan lately, Peet prefers Havard, Thompson and Ellis who all play big minutes as starters.
They still have plenty of options at prop too. Harvie Hill will probably replace Cooper plus they have Eseh and Chan coming back in, although I'm not sure either are 'Wigan quality'

Be happy with Byrne and hopefully its true, he is good player and young enough, a bit underused at Wigan, but they have so much strength in that department, ideally he replaces Sao, but if if Sao stays, think he would be a good signing. If Sao goes, still hopeful of another forward to come in.
Desperate for another centre, as I said yesterday, we might have to target an under contract player and use a transfer fee, someone like Toby King or Harry Newman. Other than that, someone like Connor Wrench. If we dont have a quota place that is.
Byrne would be a good signing for me. Young enough but also still experienced and coming from a first class team and environment. A big body who can run hard. Has disciplinary problems at times so that would need a lot of work but he still has his best years as a prop in front of him so if he can channel his aggression a bit better I think he'd end up been a big player for us. Wigan have an embarrassment of richs in the pack and lads like Hill knocking on the door so I can see them been willing to part with him.

If we do, bring in Te Where.
Id try to get both Byrne and Bienek. Byrne off contract end of 2025. Desperately need a big strapping centre, Salford showed us why..
