Quote: Paul Youane "Why did he miss last seasons pre-season?
According to Wigan fans it was the salary cap stopping playing at the end of the season before and he played against Warrington in the xmas period friendly.
Give it up and face facts he's a dreadful signing, that awarding a contract extension to is the dumbest decision inthe history of Super League (and there's plenty of competition).'"
He was still recovering from his injury. It's nothing to do with the salary cap, he's actually been on Wigans books for two seasons but did not play at all on the first due to non recovery.
It amazes me how anyone can just write him off, he was top try scorer in the reserve league last season but really struggled fitness wise.
Almost every time after he ran he would spend the next couple of minutes doing stretching exercises.
How much is down to lack of confidence I don't know, but this season will be his final chance at Wigan, for the good of Rugby League I hope he gets his fitness and confidence back.
