The problem is that I disagree with you. We should have had the best 6 in the league but he went to Wire.

French is a much better defender than Croft, he's also 3rd for try assists and 5th for tries scored. He's doing a lot better than been given credit for.

Apparently Wigan offered him the best overall package they had done to any player…

Warrington apparently made him the highest paid in super league.

Not much more we could have done really and he’s clearly gone for the money.

He would be doing the same at fullback, he is not a stand-off for the modern game at the moment.

I said it earlier that I personally think Bevan will develop into a top notch 6 and he is doing better there every game . Plays very similar to Lomax
But better defensively.

I agree, I just wish he didn’t throw the no look ball.
