A bit concerned about our lack of a 7, not sure how you know we are nowhere near signing one though. We need someone to step up at second row, but we have Wells/Kibula/Field/Partington/Paisley/Bryne; I'd hope one of them would be ready to give us cover for 10-15 games next year. I think we look strong everywhere else. Do we know whether Higginson and Forsyth are still here next year? I'd probably call it a day with Higginson

I read the other day Higginson will leave officially when his contract runs out at the end of the month.

Sensationalist phrase when I’ve said “nowhere near”. I have no idea but I would expect that if we were in for a #7, and a bloody good one at that, we would already be dissecting it on here.

I’m not that concerned by our lack of a new 7. It’s not ideal, and I’d rather have a new one than not. But we’ve still got the two lads who played 7 for us last year when we were crowned champions. Don’t get me wrong, we can certainly improve there, but we can still be good without a new one.

I could still envisage Lauchlan Lam coming over early to mid 2019, particularly if he doesn't get a look in at Sydney early doors.

Kris Radlinski has been talking up Jake Shorrocks as a potential option. Im 100% in favour of not bringing in someone for the sake of it but bringing Shorrocks back into the fold would concern me a little. He made next to no impact at Salford and they clearly weren't keen to keep him on. He would certainly need to improve massively if he were to have any chance in the Wigan first team.

Before he got injured as a neutral he showed some good touches I thought. Obviously the situation at Salford wasn't the most ideal for a young half to go and try control a team while waiting for Lui to come back as Littlejohn was garbage. Be interesting to see how he goes back in the Wigan environment. Although I would love you guys to go smash it and bring a quality 7 in

Without a new seven we need to strengthen the pack imo, to then give the options we do have the best possible chance of success because the squad feels like it lacks the depth of previous seasons at the minute.

I’m not holding out for too much activity though as it looks like we’ve made cuts to the playing budget and we’ve confirmed Bitcom will be replaced from within as well.
