Wigan Warriors Executive Director Kris Radlinski alludes to future annoucements be made in the coming weeks.

Club announces two new signings and six new deals on Thursday morning.

“Recruitment and retention is a year-long process but it is at this time of year that everything starts to take shape for the following year.”

Wigan Warriors Executive Director Kris Radlinski looks back on an exciting morning and reveals more is to come in the coming weeks, after the Club announced two new signings and six new deals on Thursday.

Prop forward Mitch Clark and centre Jake Bibby will both join the Warriors at the start of 2020, signing three-year and two-year deals respectively.

Six current Wigan players have also committed their futures to the Club by either signing new deals or extended their contracts.

Tony Clubb has extended his stay with the Cherry and Whites for another two years, while Joe Burgess and Chris Hankinson agree one-year extensions.

The talented trio of Oliver Partington, Morgan Smithies and Jack Wells have all penned new contracts, with four-year deals for the two former’s and a two-year deal for the latter.

Following Thursday’s eight announcements, Radlinski has alluded to future ones to be made in the coming weeks. He also referenced the Warriors’ move to the start-of-the-art training facility to Robin Park and Wigan’s continuity to build for the future.

Radlinski said: “Recruitment and retention is a year-long process but it is at this time of year that everything starts to take shape for the following year.

“We need to finalise our coaching team for 2020 and more announcements on signings are coming very soon.

“This has been a really hectic period as we are just a few weeks away from moving into our new HQ at Robin Park.

“It’s a development that we are really proud of and we will be announcing opportunities for our fans to look around very soon.”

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

The sooner the better. The one announcement that worries me more than any other is that Lam may stay beyond the next 3 games. And they haven’t announced that, so we have dodged a bullet for now.

That would either suggest:

New deals to existing players,

New signings (how does he know unless it’s a done deal),

Or both

They won’t announce Lam until he is back over here and done a good training session after our fifth straight loss
