Gleeson is an improvement on what you've got so you should be happy even if he never recaptures his GB/Saints/Wire first season form.
Mathers is an improvement on what Wire have got ( in the way of fullbacks given Reardon's likely dismissal shortly ) so Wire should be happy even if he never recovers his Leeds/NRL/pre-Wigan form.

That can't be the only reason there so Bad is it! 
Just for DaveO here goes! Maybe it was because they signed Higham! |

To repeat what I stated elsewhere, Wire have been poor so far this season, no doubt, leaving us so far a massive two points behind the no-doubt brilliant as ever Pies. |

Who have just signed one of the best centres in the league and Warrington have just lost one of the best centres in the league while gaining the services of the worst fullback I have ever seen at fullback. Mighty Max could do a better job. |

| Quote pie eater and proud of it="pie eater and proud of it"Gleeson, GB centre. Big past.
But does everyone on here posting about the topic seriously think that he is going to be the one pill that solves all our ills ?
Rumour abounds about his 'social' life. Saints got rid of him, now Wire have got rid of him.
Wigan are currently playing some real dross rugby, one man drives x5 plus a kick.
Can one new player really turn the whole season around ?
I have ultimate faith in our chairman and I am happy with this signing, but people on here perhaps need a slight reality check.'"
Glesson is a class centre and adding him to Wigan's backline will improve it considerably. Now you have a backline that will trouble all the Super League sides if your style of play changes and you open up more as a team and stop the 5 drives and kick which is quite frankly a boring way to play rugby. At least you have your backline sorted now. Once Feka has lost weight and gets back to the weight he was playing in the NRL, Fielden needs a rocket up his to get him firing again and as for Coley you need to get shut all together. Once the forwards are sorted out you will have a team to be reckoned with thats for sure. |

I'm still struggling with this 5 drives and a kick that we're supposed to be playing.
The vast majority of our tries this season have been scored by wingers and centres. I'm sure Bilko will confirm it.
Yesterday, Ainscough 4, Carmont 1, Pryce 1 and Sam 1.

Saints didn't get rid of Gleeson because they needed cash. |

Nope, they can't. There isn't one player alive who could provide us with a complete transformation.
However, we couldn't have signed many better threequarters IMO.
A team is a jigsaw and we have just put in a very good piece. |
