I think you need to read the posts again.
The championship winners medals were to back up the argument that the lad is holding is own in a championship winning team. We are talking about back rowers, and not halfbacks. We are talking about one player inparticular against a variety of your backrowers.
Other than the usual wigan fan arrogance of believing everything is better in cherry and white, I see nothing to suggest that Ablett would not walk straight into your team in the backrow position.
It is possible that Ablett will be playing in his backrow position this Friday. Watch the game properly then come back with something reasoned. It may be he has to do his sterling squad work and fill in at centre which then does not offer the same basis of opinion, but hopefully you will start to open your eyes to the game as a whole.
(just joking!)
