I thought McManus was loaded, it's about time he shelved the plans for cladding and bought some decent players, and not no marks like Hohioa

i reckon eden will be with us a lot longer than 18 months. Once Lunt went to Leeds that was prob nailed on. Nor will any halves go to Saints, nor any decent props.



Would not be surprised to see Brett hodgson go to Saints on a one year deal. Close to NB, able to play the fb role the way Nb likes it esp at 2nd receiver + top goal kicker.



Also brown admires briers. If he is ooc i can see a tempting 2 year deal being offered. All with no transfer fees so McManus will be happy.



Indeed if there is any truth in Wolves releasing harrison i think NB would look at all 3.



Patrick signed a long deal knowing NB was going and Brough is settled in Hudds is a friend of our MD and loves it at the club (it is not such a bad place).



the saints problem is that players like lance, perry, foster and shenton are earning for more than anyone else will pay them...off loading these players will be very difficult.

Can't see Hodgson going, the thing with Brett now is he needs to be wrapped in cotton wool, Wire have plenty of depth so we are able to rest him and bring him out when we either need him or he 's come through a game unscathed.



Playing Brett in a team which would want him on the pitch on one leg doesn't benefit anyone.

couldnt of put it any better.

You seem to think i was having a go, bit pathetic but...





...i'll humour you, Briers won't go after how he was treated last time regardless off if he still supports them.



Saints are a bigger club than both of us though regardless of current league position and if he went for Harrison and IF the rumours became the truth he would be daft to ignore it.



Saints have contested more finals than both of us combined.



I only use Hudds players and not my own BECAUSE Brown is your current coach and he knows what he'll get if he takes them with him.

I heard brown and hodgson have the same agent and I am sure that Nb knows how BH is physically. probably NB would back himself to get saints over the top of 7 or so SL clubs without playing BH, no bother. What he will want is: (a) a wise friend in the squad (b) a leader for the tough games (c) a gifted strike player and kicker for games versus the top 5 sides.

He may well go, it's unsure if Brett will be at Wire in 2013 anyway, but your veiled argument was a bit sad.

You seem to think that someone disagreeing with you is "having a go". That is pathetic.



The last time briers was at saints...was years ago. It is amazing how a tasty 2 year contract and a new coach can turn a guys head. brown will want a half with a top notch kicking game...that is why the Giants tied in broughy for 4/5 years.

i am happy, not sad at all.

What is veiled? NB admires Brett and lee. Both are OOC for 2013. Both deliver what NB will want. Also Harrison may amazingly be leaving the Wolves. Would think Nb would love to have Harrison and Manu in his back row.



Money is tight in clubs so OOC players will come first. The problem re hodgson for brown may be quota.

Eden, Brough, Patrick and Robinson all to leave to go to Saints ??



like that's going to happen !!

After so many years of average and loan players in our giants sides of the past , I love that our current players are desired by others. Another sign of our contiuned development as a club. Long may the envy continue.

Ps I started a thread on Wigan page to see what they thought of greg Eden considering they have seen Sam t development. They rate him and see his raw talent. No doubt the glass is 9 tenths full - a view that some of us on here should adopt more about him.
