Tried to keep him before getting King and Wardle or before?

Tried to keep him to play on the wing?

French Marshall Miski all ahead on the wing you’d say. A centre was coming in no matter what even if bibby was staying which would push him down the pecking order. I just don’t think he’s Wigan quality at all

I agree. The team needs to evolve if we are to catch and pass Saints, that means we need to retain our best talent and replace some players by better one’s. Jake has been ok for Wigan but you get what you pay for and Wigan has decided that the salary cap can best be used on new players. That’s the type of ruthlessness I am expecting from the management. Having said that, I wish Jake all the best in the future.

People are labelling average players squad players now. Would saints carry players like partington or bibby around ? I don’t think so. Time to move on from the players that have reached their peak and strive higher. We aren’t winning a comp with partington on the bench and bibby at centre against this current saints team

He wasn’t that weak a link, compared with some, but he is now being reunited with his Salford coach, and so may feel more appreciated there. We should be looking to upgrade everywhere we can, and if we get 2/3 quality centres then we will be much stronger.

Good luck to him, he always put in a shift.

Think Bibby was also our highest goal scorer that season too
