Mid season transfers don't happen too often. Thats why when they do its always a news story. The season is in full swing and the press are everywhere, swarming around Super Legaue grounds like there's no tomorrow. The news that Martin Gleeson is to move to his home town club, Wigan, is little surprise considering its been rumoured in the press and on the chat rooms for quite a while now.
It is bad news for Warrington, who must feel Gleeson is unsettled at the club and worth £99,999.99 as there's no way Richie Mathers is worth more than a penny after some of his performances this season.
What Warrington will do with Mathers remains to be seen, but when he steps through the front doors he will see a friendly face in Tony Smith, who coached the full back at Leeds before departing to the Gold Coast. This was at a time when Mathers was a decent full back, so maybe things can change yet for the former NRL player.
But in my opinion, Mathers won't fill the hole left by the England centre's departure in the Warrington line up.
