Quote NickyKiss="NickyKiss"Not reading a great deal into it long term because I know Maguire and Wane pick players on merits but short term I think they really like what they see in Marsh. It may be his attitude in training or his preformences for the u20's but they obviously like what they see. I went to a sportsmans dinner at Haigh Hall last year with Magurie and Wane and they mentioned Steffan Marsh's name a few times when questioned about which players they had high hopes for. They raved about how good this lad was and with backing like that from those 2 blokes i'm sure he's got something special about him.'"
As I said on the VT: not seen anything from him to excite me. Gets the ball and it's head down, charge in. Never passes and on at least a few occasions last year was badly out of position in defence or missed tackles to concede tries. I'm sure he'll do well somewhere but I can't see it being at Wigan unless on the wing.
I appreciate he's young but there are better players at his age (Charnley being one) and I just don't see anything special in him at the moment. Of course Madge & co. see him day in, day out and are far better judges than I, but still...Wigan have high standards right now and I don't see him reaching them.
