Just confirmed on Sky Sports News that Logan is back with Wigan for 2015, with an option for a further year.
Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
I like the kid and it will be nice to see him back.Just means more fighting for a place.Lets just hope that he's gained the experience needed that Waney said he needed from his time with the reds.

Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
Good news, he's been playing well at Salford when he starts a game & not from the bench IMO
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

Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
Im not convinced - i think he needs at least a yard of pace to be effective. Either that or bulk up at the moment i feel like he is a little too small to be a mickey mac style hooker and not fast enough to be a burrow/clark style hooker.
He is a good player and i feel like he does belong in superleague but maybe not at the sharp end

Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
What is not clear is what is a good hooker? surely its a player who is capable to hold down a position as a second row/LF ON HIS PHYSICALITY /SPEED /STRENGH, and do a good job as hooker. YOU cannot be just a specialist hooker ,its not enough added value for the specialism. Why Wigan did not try to convert Farrell to a no 9 is baffling. Too small to be a prop, too small and slow to be a second row,its no 9 or nothing. W e cannot afford such weak thinking. BESTS

Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
More rubbish, every team in SL and the NRL have specialist hookers and with regards to turning Farrell into a hooker you cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear.menpond wrote:What is not clear is what is a good hooker? surely its a player who is capable to hold down a position as a second row/LF ON HIS PHYSICALITY /SPEED /STRENGH, and do a good job as hooker.

Re: LOGAN TOMKINS
As random as it sounds some actually suggested LF going to hooker when he first broke into the team, i think they saw him as a KFC style hooker
if i was wane planning to keep tomkins id have him working with a sprint coach on his short distance speed. That would be my main focus I think the other elements of his game are pretty good
