How come people keep saying French is in Wigan? Who's saying that and why?

Where is that being said? Not seen it said for a while.

There was original questions whether he had returned to Aus or not. I think he spent some time in England presumably recovery from the operation and then went to Aus but that was ages ago now.

A poster on here Keptinthedarkfans ( I think) has said recently he spoke to him in person in Wigan. From his posts I’ve no reason to disbelieve him but did ask him the question to confirm because the club had said he’s in Oz. I didn’t get a response so still non the wiser.
