Quote ="Father Ted"Ashton was a very good winger for Wigan and never a full back, ever!
Why Noble played him there is anyone's guess, after one game he should have been moved back to the wing.
Ashton playing game after game dreadfully at full back has always said more about Noble than Ashton as far as I'm concerned.'"
He only played about 3 games on the wing for the first team and he was absolutely dreadful there. He was quick but was never any good in the defensive line, dealing with kicks or positioning himself.
