Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Nothing like long-term planning Josie! Hopefully, the club have a further option to extend.

I think it’s so he can get himself back to his best and put himself back in the shop window for the NRL for 2021

obviously feels he needs another tune up year before NRL

Could be an indication we see Manfredi and Davies as our long term wingers?

Or, indeed, Marshall and Davies? All we can do with Manfredi is wait and see.

Anyway, again, wingers are not really our problem.

I'd be happy if we ended up with Marshall and Davies, They score some great tries and plenty of them

Said elsewhere it’s for the NRL. Nobody wanted him for 2020 now a year extra to try again for 2021. Why would wigan offer a 1 year deal to a young winger who has nearly a try every game? It would be a 4 year deal surely.

The quicker IL gets a spine and stops worrying about players wanting to go to the NRL the better
