Been saying we should sign him for the last three seasons only to get shot down by certain experts on here and rlfans saying he isn't Wigan standard, On last nights showing alone he has proved that on his day he is better than any center Wigan have at the moment, Complete beast of a player and if all goes well for him he will decimate sides this season, Just think at what could have been, Oh well never mind at least we've got Dan Sarginson and who knows, Maybe he will learn how to pass to his winger this season

His size alone draws more defenders out of position........i think he will be a big success if used properly and he stays fit...... his only downside is his speed off the mark in defence...... i would defo have him at wigan

Hell of a player and according to my nephew a really nice bloke too,he will as the weather gets warmer be a machine for Leeds if he keeps clear of injuries.

I’d say at the moment at least the best of Leeds’s imports so far

Hope springs eternal but it was still cruel of the ex stains player John Wilkin on the bbc commentary last Sunday to remark that Sarginson is known throughout Superleague for not passing to his winger.

Always was going to be a useful SL player if he stayed injury free. He has weaknesses in his game (which is why the Warriors replaced him with a similar, but better, player in Kata), but he will always trouble defences. Got plenty of involvement against Saints.

Is he a better left centre than Gildart? Not in my book.

Haha! Maybe that was his hairstyle?

Not fit to lace Tuigamala's boots from what I've seen.
