There is Wigan scouts at local games and away I see them at many games. Unfortunately at moment saints seem to be picking up some great young talent something not quite right at Wigan it seems

If you’re good enough you’re old enough.

20 years old and tears it up no matter what position he plays.

What a talent.

Tommy Makinson wasn’t on the same level as a lot of players when he was an amateur at Hindley.

He only got signed up round about the time Sam Powell and Dom Crosby did. (Around 17/18 years old which is considered late).

He went on a Saints tour around Australia, something clicked and he just stepped it up to another level.

Welsby would not sign for Wigan the only place he wanted to go was Saints.

I wasn’t saying he had an offer from Wigan, what I was trying to say was that he made it clear that the only team he wanted to play for was Saints.
