As a Wigan fan, i wouldnt say best in the northern hemisphere just yet, but i do agree he could be a world beater. His physical attributes alone make him stand out literally

, but i would think Wigan will work on his strength and conditioning and he'll add a couple of KG muscle.



Playing wise he is still learning and only made his breakthrough due to Willie Isa breaking his leg or we wouldnt have seen as much of him as we did last season. So this year is really his chance to cement that 2nd row spot, hopefully for the long term at Wigan, and beyond the 6 years he signed last year

Beat me too is

Agreed, and because of our alleged interest, they will be paying him a lot more on their Salary Cap than what he is worth, in order to retain him.

Assuming Vaughan, Musgrove and Tai go back to Australia next year we’ll have 3 quota places available. Fitzgibbon may also go back but I’m not sure when his deal expires. Be interesting to see who we’re after. Definitely need at least a couple of props and a back rower to add to Byrne coming in.

Fitzgibbon's deal is to November 2026.

One forward in the Vaughan mould (long minutes / yardage), and one big bopper (short bursts of disruption) please.
