Ince could see a Widnes return as an unsettled feeling is present during his time at Leigh. Currently on loan at Oldham and rumoured to be coming back. Would you take him back after the way he left and would he get back into the team at the moment with Deon Cross in such fine form ?
No and no!
Good try scorer, not a big improvement on Cross or Johnson, in fact I think that Johnson is far better- be a good option for competition- not a big prop or bench hooker, so a luxury we could do without, especially after Wembley.
No chance.
Yes defo
no dummy to large
Two reasons for saying no: the way he behaved and I’m not convinced he regrets anything, and more importantly we need additional players but (big) forwards should be our priority.
Would be a waste of funds
If we can afford him, I'd take him tomorrow. Never mind how badly he behaved, what about how our top try scorer was treated by the last coach? Not even in the Wembley 19. If any young player ever had a reason for showing his arse, it was him. I expect stick from the people who think the club can't do wrong, but players are human, not robots. If we need him and can afford him, what happened in the past, should he left in the past.
Unless he has had a Harvey Howard style transformation during the off season then it's a no from me.
I'd stick with the wingers we have now (given we also have some cover in Hatton and Buckley) and spend any spare cash on strengthening the forwards. Nothing to do with what happened between Ince and the club in the past but simply don't think wing is a priority position for signings.
Why? Our wingers have played well this season and I am not sure that Ince would improve the squad. He made his choice and left and we have replaced him with a better player. Good luck to him wherever he goes, but at the moment we don't need him. We need a couple of decent props first to add to the squad.

Agreed. To my mind, both Johnson & Cross are better wingers than him and we have cover for them without increasing our salary spend by signing a new player.
A rumour that nobody has heard and will never happen. Sheens would not have someone with his attitude. Highly overrated IMO.
Joe Lyons was treated just as badly by the previous Coach but reacted differently and is now benefitting from it. Ince made his decision and has to live with it - That's Life!
