Quote: Simba16 "Decent, a bit light in the front row but that has changed with recent seasons, already Max Wood is doing OK at Wire, oh yeh we can add Joe Bullock?'"
There was a post recently on either facebook or twitter from one of the guys who does a podcast i think
Wigan was 2nd only to the NRL for the production line of players, based on where that player made their original academy debut (i think it was from). that includes players still within the club and other SL teams, so we had Faz for example as an academy product
The challenge for Wigan is how do we retain the best of the production line, alongside smart recruitment of both UK and NRL trained players. At this moment in time it feels like that balance is about right as we are in a period where we are winning trophies, albeit we have lost a couple of promising 2nd rowers to Leeds and Wire, and then Smithies and KPP to the NRL last year.
