The Wigan Cherry & White forum along with the Parramatta forum in Australia are getting a bit overheated with the emerging news.
It is being said that Gareth Hock has signed a 4 year deal to go to Parramatta, this comes after he signed a 5 year deal with Wigan after completing his 2 year drugs ban.
It seems that the Wigan team is on the verge of breaking up,as well as Finch going along with Leuluei (spelling) it is also being said that Sam Tomkins will be on his way after next season and Harrison Hansen as been approached by the New Zealand Warriors.
Another story from yesterday to add to the gloom was that Salford survived a winding up order yesterday which was served by a Management Company who said they where owed money,this was averted by Salford reaching a settlement with the company.
But the winding up petition remains active due to the fact that two former players (Luke Patton and Vinnie Anderson) both say they are owed about £40.000 in unpaid wages .They are joined in the petition by the HMRC who claim that they are owed £50,000 in unpaid taxes. This action will be heard in Janurary.
And whilst all this is going on the British Rugby League are still saying that the game in the UK as never been stronger.

Theo....Re; Salford being in financial trouble..
Whether it's Salford or Oldham or whoever makes the move to the big league, wouldn't any of them struggle financially to keep up with the big guns.???
The chances of major sponsorship pound is in dire straits at the present moment and surely it would take a bit of time and a few wins to get good crowd support.

Hock is as hard as nails and would be well suited to Australian Rugby League.
