Saw this lad a few times watching the Wigan reserve side last year and always thought highly of him as a player, a very good bit of business from panthers to sign him, he certainly adds a bit of cover for fullback and wing especially if leather is unfit for this week, (saw him take a knock on sunday) so we are not struggling as much to replace him, also raey can cover centre and wing. Very good signing IMO.

He played at stand off against Rochdale, don't see that as a permanent thing but just shows his versatility. Not sure what it says about MC's view of Jay Duffy though when joke Svabic and a winger are getting picked ahead of him..?

Has Sam been playing well? And also what position has he been playing? His attack and go forward is superb although his defence was shown up a few times whilst at Leigh.

he played very well today against oldham, defensively sound, including a very good shot on their 16 smashing him on his ar.se gave some good touches in attack too, looking like a good signing imo

Glad to hear it

he is going to have to step up now though. i can seeing him being chosen as the man to try and fill jonny leather's shoes at full back...but they are large shoes to fill
