I very much doubt that considering he has only just signed for Manly. |

| What will the starting half back partnership most likely be next season?
Ideally Lockyer would be perfect to partner Sam
Can't see this happening though 
How likely is it we'll sign Orford?
Just hope it isn't another Tim Smith

Which would be a disaster in my opinion. |

It depends, they could turn out to be a great partnership. |

We could do with a quality experienced player who can control a game and take the pressure off Sam
Tommy should be played at hooker I don't think there is any doubt about that |

We made an inquiry by all accounts but had no chance of getting a working visa, this is prior to his move to Manly. |

I followed the Knights last year in the NRL an Chris Bailey is the stand off equivalent of their Phil, hard grafter, good at tackling but runs in harder. I personaly wouldn't want us to sign him as I dont think he would improve usas he doesnt organise well or break the line much like their Phil, we need someone like Lockyer who can handle the pressure and expectation to go with this fine club, is a proven winner with a champion mentality and would boost the crowds, boost the capabilities of the players around him in the same way Barrett did. If we have a team of Wigan lads with one or two superstars that would do me. Get Lockyer signed Mr Leneghan. |

If only it were that easy
Lockyer would be perfect though I agree, would be that truly world class player that to be honest we don't have at the moment. He would give us class, leadership, organisation and a lot more. Would be fantastic experience for Sam as well  |

That scenario would be perfect. However we have Richards, Roberts and many others on 3/4 year contracts. This wont happen for a LONG time. |

He has pace vision and agility, not sure he is an out and out 6, much better as a centre or 1. I personally think he would walk into any SL backline.
Would not be worth anything other than a contract for this season though so basically not a good signing long term for Wigan's needs. |

Defensively is he better than Smith? I presume he is.
But if we were to sign McGoldrick, wouldn't that just be another block in Sam Tomkins route to the first team? He's a good player, I'm just not sure he is the right signing for Wigan, positional wise. |
