Worst player I have seen you will do best if you leave him a lone.

He was being say we shall tongue in cheek KW

Stains fans are pretty confident they have signed him.

Leigh Centurions managing director Andy Mazey reveals that Wigan Warriors have made a bid for prop Sam Hopkins.

The 23-year-old, who signed a one-year deal at the start of the season, has scored eight tries in 11 appearances in the Championship this term.

"Leigh will meet to discuss two bids later, one of which I can confirm is Wigan," Mazey says on Twitter. "Pure speculation at this stage, no deal for Sam has been agreed with Wigan nor anyone else."

He can't sign unless he changes his name. Far too confusing with a Sam Tomkins and a Sam Hopkins in the same side. Eddie would never survive 80 minutes and God knows what the BBC would make of it.

They would probably invite him on a Question of Sport thinking they were getting Sam T.

Sam Hopkins: Wigan among clubs chasing Leigh Centurions prop

Leigh Centurions director Andy Mazey has revealed that Wigan Warriors have made a bid for prop Sam Hopkins.

The 23-year-old, who signed a one-year deal at the start of the season, has scored eight tries in 11 appearances in the Championship this term.

"Leigh will meet to discuss two bids later, one of which I can confirm is Wigan," Mazey said on Twitter.

Responding to a report Hopkins could be a Wigan player within days, he added: "Pure speculation at this stage."

Mazey went on to announce that as well as the two bids, a third club has expressed an interest in the former Leigh East forward.

Hopkins played against Wigan in the Challenge Cup in April.

Wouldn't be the first time. I remember David Stephenson getting called up to play for England. By the RFU!

It says on the leigh forum wigan have signed prop Sam Hopkins from leigh, is this true?.

Had a look at his stats, it says he's a prop but he has never played prop this season, always loose forward.
So he must be versatile
