I suppose they could strengthen Wigan but by how much? With the luxury of MSK i've managed to watch some NRL this year and haven't really been impressed with what i've seen of Lima or Finch. Wigan fans refer to Finch as the controlling half back but i've seen no evidence of that this season and Lima would be able to do more minutes than Feka. An example is this last week's game against Aukland. Finch looked more anonymous than S Tomkins against us and Lima, well, after about his 4th knock-on 1 commentator says 'he's not having a good game today' and the other says 'today, more like a few weeks'. I understand that different coaches can get more out of players as we've seen at Warrington this season but, what can Maguire get out of them 2 that Bellamy can't?

Wigan will be relying a lot on Leluai and McIllorum at hooker. Neither are top draw in that position in my opinion. That will be their biggest weakness (along with an injury to either of those two or at half-back).

Weren't the Warrington fans as skeptical as this when we signed Spider? "Oh he's too old, he's slow, he won't score any tries, very underwhelmed".

Look how that panned out. There was mass joy on here when he signed for another year the other day.

not the warrington fans who knew about the nrl,

I miss Virtual NRL. For old-time sakes I still look at the stats every week just to see who would have got a forward try.

Alan Tongue still a given?
