Always tried hard, but ultimately I think we have better options a head of him and it's no surprise he'd want to see more first team action.

| Quote Father Ted="Father Ted"Hoffman will be replaced by Hock who is also a left sided 2nd row.
Coley, replacement remains to be seen but Fielden is back next year with Prescott, Lima, Mossop, Dudson & Crosby.
Should Deacon retire I'd go with Mellor. Played SL for Quins earlier this year and was told when he played v Saints he was excellent. If d/r is to mean anything then Mellor and Crosby should be in the first team next year.
Centre is the main problem. Carmont in his last year in 2012, Joel still learning and will be next year if he stays at 3. An experienced centre needs to be signed for 2012 and most definately for 2013. Who and where from, who knows?'"
I am already feeling sorry for Wane. Coley, Hoffman (he is better than Hock IMO) and O'Carroll out. Lauaki in plus Thomas (?) and possibly other Crusader rejects? It's like when Millward could only sign the likes of Jordan James and that other forward player who's name I forget. |

Lauaki was signed quite a while ago I think. |

| Quote Wandering Warrior="Wandering Warrior"My thoughts exactly. We cant exactly criticise until we know who is replacing him

True, but so far it does not look good.
Andy Coley, Ryan Hoffman, Ben Davies, Eamon O'carroll, Ben Cross and Paul Deacon lost.
Gil Dudson, Epalahame Lauaki, Ben Flower and Gareth Thomas gained. |

Sweet!
I am certainly looking forward to seeing how some fans justify signing him and I await the inevitable ridicule of DaveO when he has the audacity to even suggest for a moment that he is a poor signing. |

Would have rather kept Cross than sign Luauki, bad bit of business there IMO.

Hame could actually be a really good signing if you play him as a wide second rower and get some aggression back into him, he's just become a pudding since Silverwood spoke to him everytime he made a tackle at HKR away last season.

Some coaches can change a players attitude, Melbourne had some very average forwards (off past performances at other clubs) yet they ended up minor premiers in the NRL and when you consider that they lost their best players to the Origin games that was some achievement.
I will always judge players after I have seen them play at the club. Having the best fitness/conditioner in SL can only improve any player that comes to Wigan. |

I don't think his attitude or fitness is a problem. Quite simply, his playing ability is not good enough for us, especially as he is pretty much a replacement for Coley.
