Re: Garry Schofield Column; my prediction for Wigan Warriors Super League 2024

Wow. Even Garry thinks we’re the best team.
When he says he didn’t like everything we did in the 90s, I assume he means stopping him winning any trophies whatsoever

Re: New players

Sport wide problem. Club websites are never updated across the competition. The NRL team sites are all the same template so if you see a player you want to know more about you click on the team site and can read a detailed profile of them. Here, both the club and Super League website are useless. Pl...

Re: Owen Farrell

Heard a rumour last week that he had been discussing a possible short term stint with us at the end of the Saracens season. Maybe he is exploring all options? If it comes down to a choice between Wigan or Paris it is surely a no brainer.... :D

Re: Owen Farrell

Farrell quoted in today's Times talking about committing to another World Cup cycle in Rugby Union. He doesn't 100% explicitly say that but it sounds very much like a man who is not planning to jump ship to another code any time soon. Think we can firmly put this one to bed once and for all.

Re: Owen Farrell

It seems like Owen Farrell is to be the Sarries marquee player and Itoje is off so it looks like this rumour is dead. Oh well. I would love us (and all Super League clubs) to be making use of the rugby union market. There is a lot of talent there and we should be able to offer a viable career option...

Re: Owen Farrell

Agreed. This story looks very much like an agent ploy to alert RU clubs and England

Re: Owen Farrell

Talking of union converts, I see England wing Henry Arundell is being "linked" with a move to rugby league (specifically the NRL) in today's papers. I'm sure it is all just a manufactured rumour to try and prompt the RFU / Premiership clubs in to making him an offer or integrating him back...

Re: Shorrocks

If Shorrocks goes he will be a loss but I can imagine he will want to be somewhere where he can get a game week in week out. He has been that hugely useful utility player that all winning sides need. Not the biggest not the quickest but a whole-hearted player who clearly loves playing for his home t...

Re: Owen Farrell

Having watched him closely again last night I just don't see him being big enough for a 13 despite all his other qualities. I'm sure he's bigger than e.g. Shorrocks but he can't be more than 14 stone which would be borderline. I know lots of people will say that our Faz (Ginger Pearl) isn't very bi...
