I think it is more based on how Wigan do the pathway by also involving local club coaches and holding sessions for coaches, that then is taken back to the amateur club and taught to the kids.

I would imagine a Warrington youngster would dream of wearing home town colours unless they were a fan of a different club and for them seeing a clear pathway to first grade is essential, first team success also plays a part as well as all want to win when playing sports, but there is a lot of pride in making at your home town club and I think those who come through the pathway at Wigan can see that it does work whereas I am not sure it is reflected the same at other clubs

You missed our greatest ever signing Roy Asotasi or was it to painful to mention

Yep we have bought some duffers who haven't lasted long. Good idea to look at other clubs' recruitment too. We obviously remember Wire failures but I bet if you looked at Leeds, Hull, Huddersfield & others you'd see a few clangers too.

I didn't pick up these names on original list.

Without a doubt but other clubs could cover it up better than us because we had that buying a win tag on us and everyone including the other clubs fans would pick up on it. That tag was with us for a long time but I like to think that’s going to be in the past now.

Agent: Don’t worry Roy I know a club that will take you and pay you what you want.
