I ve mentioned on another thread my concern regarding Havard.
He just seems to me like he lacks the aggressive side to his game to become a top prop.
I donrt know what his meter making figures are but he does seem easy to tackle for the opposition and lacks that bit of mongrel.
I worry when he starts he cant impose himself on other teams props
I hope i am wrong but not seeing it at the moment

Havard is far too young to be a starting prop.
Bench prop yes, starting prop, not for some time yet

He looks/plays more like a backrower at present

That’s not the Wigan way though at present play them no matter the age and see what happens when will they stop with this short term thinking and look to the future?

FFS he is 20 years of age, our anger needs to focus on the senior professionals who are not earning their money.

This might sound harsh but its the Wigan way of late, too small for the front row, too slow for the back row.

He will be a good un….. our problems come more from tactics…… we are still playing the same old stuff since maguire left…… we need to improve and try the set moves more often( not just when we are leading comfortably)……. We were so reliant on french in attack last season its scary
