Re: Recruitment/Retention Drive For 2021

I imagine both Leuluai and Lockers will call it quits after next season (assuming the latter doesn't retire after this season). I also imagine Gildart will leave for the NRL along with (more than likely) Hastings, meaning signing a top centre and half-back will be crucial. Particularly centre as we...

Re: Sean O'Loughlin and Ben Flower set to give Wigan Warriors a boost

This could be a big gamble to give them both game time, depending on if they are fully recovered and fully fit, is it worth a risk in this game alone Hankinson has been 18th man for the past 3 or 4 games, he also needs game time if he is required to step in, he can play several positions both in bac...

Re: Wigan vs Warrington

Sarge has been playing well ever since he found out he was going. For me hankinson isn’t good enough to be in the team, reminds me of a centre Willie isa style player.

Re: Wigan vs Warrington

We will miss Sarge. Not really. The players we miss are the genuine class players like Bateman. We will because Hankinson and Bibby are not as good. As for Bateman any team would miss him. Sorry to disagree, players come and go....Hankinson has shown in his limited chances he is more than capable a...

Re: Wigan vs Warrington

Another win chalked off, French shown great speed, reminded me a bit of John Ferguson, disappointed Hankinson has to make way for Sarge though, he played really well last week, our young lads in the pack are getting stuck in and not getting rolled over, very promising

Re: The 18th Man column: 'The award for Wigan Warriors' most improved player goes to...'

Reckon the way Hankinson has performed recently has put pressure on Hardaker which improved his kicking likewise with Sarge, Hank he has started from scratch after his injury last year and has been one of the most consistent players
