You can't wait to have digs towards the club can you? Wigans lads are over the age of 21 hardly a bunch of kids eh knockybumps? You starting 2017s petition yet?
Who is having a dig, or can't you understand what I've said and you don't like facts being stated? Not having a single players come through and cement a place for 3 years is not of concern to you then?
You/we have to ask ourselves why is that, what is the reason/s as to why when our youth system has been lauded by the club as one of the best, loads of money invested and for three years now there's been no-one good enough at least in the coaches eyes to cement a place?
That is the reality, if you're good enough you're old enough as Callum Lancaster did at 17, or maybe scoring a hat-trick of tries against Warrington, London and a brace elsewhere was just a fluke?
Not giving these kids a chance as Wane has done at Wigan and indeed Leeds/Warrington stunts their development.
Here's a run down of our 19/20 year olds that have had games before this year.
Jordan Abdul 7+2 appearances (2015- 10+10).
The lad has talent, people saying he's overweight etc but hardly playing many matches doesn't help him fitness wise IMHO. Got dropped after 2 games had 5 with Fev then went 6 weeks without any matches at all then turns up for the home drubbing of the dobbins and seemingly everyone having a pop at him despite that he's in a pivotal role and not having played much!
Jack Logan 6 appearances, couple of early season defensive errors no worse than Talanoa's awful positioning and he was gone never to return.
Jack Downs - 2 sub appearances for brief spells (2015 5 app)
Jansin Turgut 1 sub appearances
Callum Lancaster 1 appearance (made 3 tackle busts and 80m over 12 carries)
Masi Montongo 0 appearances
Brad Fash 0 appearances
