Shaun Wane won't start ruining youngsters now. He never has. Just look at the team they have now. Pivotal players at just the start of their careers. Sam's still only at the start of his so just have confidence that Mr Wane will give him his chance in that #29 shirt. But until then he will need to keep playing instead of benchwarming. Won't be long until he's in red and white again. Admittedly in with the wrong badge.

I said at time he left 1 or 2 years to early. When hill left he was the best forward both at leigh and the championship, imo sam wasnt even the best forward at leigh last season. I wish him only the best, just think he ill advised to jump ship as early as he did.

Wane has stated he will probably be going out on loan as he is not ready yet.

I don't like the DR system, especially as we're all basically in the same competition again but we can hardly moan too much about it. Would we have secured the services of Tom Spencer had he not played so much for us last season??

Tom was on loan, means a min 4 week period. DR means come and go at will

People are forgetting that Hill signed for Warrinton and was then loaned back to Leigh for the remainder of the 2011 season. It was that combination of full time training and championship football which made him able to step up to the top flight in the manner which he did.

Wigan know how to develop and nurture talent and wouldn't have just signed him on a whim. If he works hard and is patient Wane will give him his chance.
