Well Joel is certainly gone thats for sure. Sam is undecided but i am 100% certain his long term future is not with Wigan RL.
IF i where IL i would be siting down with Sam and offering him a new 2 year deal with an improved salary ( using part of the money from Joels contract) With the understanding he is free to leave at the end of it. I would be happy with that given the current situation.
Sam gets an improved contract and knows he has 2 years to sound out NRL & RU for his best move.
Wigan get 2 more years out of Sam which allows us to plan for the future.
Sam may leave on a free but lets be honest due to the salary cap what could we use his transfer fee money for? IL is not short of a penny or two either.
The worst thing that can happen is that he leaves at the end of next season as both Finch and Tommy are out of contract too. Tommy has already stated he wants to move to OZ and you can bet some OZ clubs will be after Finch what with their new larger salary cap.
