Quote ="Rogues Gallery"From what I was told Saints didn't offer him a full time academy contract, (just pay as you play) Wigan offered him a trial and then an academy contract after a couple of games. I must say that I was surprised as he looks very much like Joe Burgess in his size and style of running.
As with all young players time will tell, but he has really impressed in his first season at Wigan. He scored five tries in his three games v Saints but was unlucky to miss out on the final v Wire due to an ankle injury ironically picked up against Saints in the semi.'"
Cheers for that. I was curious as I rated him among the best 3 centres for his age group from this side of the Pennines alongside Gildart and Brad Goulding who played for St.Maries then signed for Widnes.
