Chris Ashton

Not happy at Northampton and wants to come back to Wigan. Would you have him back

[cherrywarrior]

Who for, Mathers, yes, Pat, hell no, Ainscough, HELL no, Roberts, no

This story always comes up, I doubt if its true!

[highland convert]

There is all the big time union boys that will get first bite of the cherry. Then he will look back to league. Yo have to remember he did not try very hard in his final year here. Yes he has talent but will he apply it if he came back or would he go missing again,

In attack, fair enough, he knew his way to the try line, but his defense was worse than Mathers!

He wasnt..no one is.

I heard this last week also

I'd see it as a hard pill to swallow, but I think I'd be inclined to say yes. As has been mentioned, he was poor in defence, but outstanding going forward, it would give us a lot more options in the backs.

I think the problem is we are fine with Pat at FB for the next 2 or 3 seasons and Ashton will want first team RL. I always rated him as an attacker and he adds speed to any team he plays for. His defence was poor but nowhere nerar as bad as Mathers. His attitude? iffy but not something I ever really worried about personally.

Centre when Carmont goes

Ashton? Never thought of that but I guess if he improved his defence and if need be later he could move to FB when Ian Thornley comes through then that isa very worthwhile idea.

[Glynola]

Talented player, let down by an awful attitude

Wouldn't want him back in any capacity.
