I think Noble has had his hand forced this year. And it has really payed dividends. Tomkins and Ainscough are showing the way for the so called 'experienced players'. I have no doubt that with these players and the players coming through...sprinkled with a light touch of seasoned pros Wigan will become competitive once again.

BTW My mouth is watering at the prospect of Tomkins vs Eastmond at some point down the road. That should be one of the greatest half-back rivalries of recent years.

Just hope he can carry on bringing one or two more through this year. i think sam n ainscough will sit the barrow game out as we have a got two huge games over the easter period and at thier age you dont want to burn them out.

Defiantly agree with you on this one. We are sooooo close to having a really good squad which includes a lot of good young talent 2! I really think it’s a case getting another quality centre to increase our attacking threat on the opposite side to Carmont, a good tough as old boots experienced prop and maybe a SH general and we are there again.

Good to see there are still plenty of good youngsters like Thornley, Mossop, Farrell & Vievers who can still come through!

Best part tho is knowing people like Mick Hogan realise that in order to be successful and manage the cap to it’s full potential we need to produce the majority of our squad ourselves. With people like him running the show we will get back to where we belong imo.

Its Sam v Jonny Lomax if again he stays injury free that i'm looking forward to, he's quality.






"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.
