The theory of players going to the NRL because they're not getting opportunities here sounds credible, but I'm struggling to thonk who it applies to.
Sam T, Sutton, Bateman, Williams, Budgie . . ????
An alternative hypothesis: Wigan's history of producing top players attracts the best and most ambitious young kids here in their mid teens. This skill and ambition are the very same qualities that draw young players in their early 20s to play in the NRL.

Why have we decided that because John bateman is leaving we can’t let go of a very replaceable prop who does 20 minutes a game. Baffling decisions sometimes
Maybe with a good pre season they may turn him into a good offloading 2nd rower, pure guess btw.

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
