Nice signing if true, IMO. Can cover full back, wing and centre plus can kick goals. Would allow us to stop putting 2nd rows at centre, should injuries strike!

Not good enough for us, I’d be massively disappointed if this was true.

I’ve not any inside info but just before he was picked for England Wardle was strongly linked with Wigan.

He then gets picked for England somewhat out of the blue, so he is highly rated by our set up in Wane.

No inside info at all but the way things work I would suggest he signed for Wigan for 2023 then which instigated his availability on the loan market.

King is a big Giants supporter and Huddersfield lad who is also on a big wage. I think short term the move was attractive to both parties.

I am of the opinion (again no inside knowledge just my take on how things can work) that Wardle is a done deal for ‘23.

2 + 2 could equal 5 but I just have a feeling that’s how things have played out.

Remember I said the player that had signed, his current club may announce it, not Wigan..... 2 + 2 could also not equal 5.
