Remember when we missed out on Hurrell when we needed a centre well 2 year new deal with Saints he is destructive in the centre for them , Austin would be a great asset to replace Cust twice the player Cust is & would put bums on seats for next year ,

As he played for GB, does he count on quota?

Blake Austin would put bums on seats?

Judge him in a few matches, Yes please. Judge him over a season, No thanks.
I have supported Wigan RL since the late 80s. First game was a cup tie v Barrow. Also a fan of football and Speedway. Have a varied taste in music.

The question dd is asking is “Is he an improvement on Cust”?.I think we all know the answer to that at this moment

Wire are playing as bad as we had been been. That's not Austin but wire
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Signed a 1 year extension. And His defence and positional play are very poor sooner have the 2 centres we have. Just also have to say Austin had half a dozen good games in 2 year's.
