New to this forum and seeking news regarding todd carney.It as been muted by our club chairman that wigan are interested in signing todd.How are things in australia proceeding with regards to his ban in the nrl? Do you think it likely that he will be coming to super league? God we need him desperately after the debacle of late.Would appreciate response from those better informed.:)

Check out the Canberra Raiders section, they're the one's who sacked him.

Personally, I think he's more trouble than he's worth, but being that he's possibly going to Wigan, he'll have plenty of drinking buddies.

There's some threads with his history at:

Basically, he's got a ton of talent, but seems to self destruct whenever he gets on the turps. A shame really, we were originally banking on him steering us to future glory.

You'll get him KOOCH, I can't see him being allowed to play NRL next year.

Very similar player to Tim Smith imo, I don't know how they'd go in the same lineup?

Thanks for that bartman.Yes the combination of smith, leuiluei, Carney and our own Sam Tomkins certainly makes for an interesting combination.A combinatin that will be of mind boggling proportions to our coach Brian Noble.One of the most inept coachs ever to grace the portals of wigan.Cannot see Tommy L playing back up hooker to Riddell nor would he want to.Remains to see what 2009 brings cosidering this season is dead and gone.Thanks for that bartman.:)

Thanks for that one Jed.Don't know if your assumption that he will have plenty of drinking buddies is true or not.We have most certainly had our problems over the years with a few nutcases.However,the club does have a good record when bringing the best out of troubled personalities.Lets hope that if we do indeed get him in our ranks he can turn his life aroud for the better.Lets be honest about the realities of signing him.Will we give him a long contract? i think not! As a consequence he will probably be back in australia within a couple of years.Repaired and reinvigorated.All to your benefit.Anyhow you do have the luxury of Trent Barrett returning home.And not to soon in my humble opinion!The man was on fire in2007 and could not be faulted.However,i genuinely do believe he as become a liability to us these last few months.He's mentally returned to australia before he's gotten on the big bird.Thanks for 2007 though.Can see the player permutations causing our coach a few problems.Considering the fact that he really is not the sharpest knife in the box.Can you aussies not consider sending us a half decent coach? We need help!!:)
