| Quote Saddened!="Saddened!"Wigan fans should be up in arms about this. The club should be bombarded with phone calls asking for a personal explanation from Leneghan. It's unquestionable that this will benefit Saracens. Better access to arguably one of the best RL production lines. They'll be able to identify the stars even earlier than they can now and have access to tapping them up through the masquerade of them 'exchanging knowledge'.
What do Wigan get out of it exactly?'"
Well said, I couldnt agree more

And do you know any player who came back from that game anything like as good as before they left ? More fool the clubs who bother.....once they leave, sod 'em.

I'm sure he'll love that crash ball centre position where he gets to use none of his skills and gets trampled on every week at the bottom of a pile of bodies.
He may get fast tracked into the England set up but there's a lot of big lump English centres playing union at the moment.
I can't help but feel he would have been better staying put. He could have improved as a player and made a decision later and got the same or possibly more money.
As it is I reckon he'll be back rather like Lee Smith or Chev Walker.

And?
Lenagan isn't stupid, he's not letting someone walk off a 5 year contract without being compensated for it. Just because he hasn't released the exact minutiae of the deal isn't to say all we've got is a smile and a handshake.

| Bit odd not to say what's coming in return at the point where there's maximum publicity.

Even though I am a Wigan fan I am RL through and through and realise that all clubs need RL to be strong and will always back any RL club against a RU one. Whether some like to admit it or not RU is our main competitior and will swallow our game up if given half the chance. I think now more than ever RL fans need to get behind the game, both domestically and internationally, to make the game stronger.

| Shame to see him go but more worrying for me is a so called deal between the two clubs. I dont see how Wigan get any benefit in such a deal.
Saracans will no doubt be all over the Wigan acadamy.

| I think the agent(s) (and who might they be  ) will be the ones to benefit most from a Wigan and Saracens tie-up.....trebles all around.
