Heyyy guys an outsider here.... not a wigan fan but a fan of rugby league. Was sat in the rugby club today after training and the topic came up about a former wigan player Chris Ashton, a good young player who again was stolen by the kick and clap game, how has his move to union gone????? Has he disapeared under the radar? Is a return to league on the cards???

Well he went for £140k per years so he will have to be very good to get a wage like that or be prepared to take a pay drop.

My mates a big union fan and I was asking him about Ashton, to see whether he'd be close to getting a spot in the England team. Apparantly he's not been doing too badly, but there's rumours in the union circles that he won't get into the England set up because he's a bit too cocky for his own good.

I've just looked on the Northampton site and he scored 41 tries in 28 matches (5 as sub) in his first season. He's played 44 games and 5 more as sub and scored 53 tries. so not a bad return at all.

The first season was in the division below the premiership, so it would have been easier for him to score a few tries, but he seems like he's there or there abouts in the Premiership too.

You've got to hand it to him, in attack he is very very good. However in defence, he was quite shocking.

That is an amazing return!
