| When we visit the pies, he'll been known as something very much different. I hope JH rams it down their sweet throats.
From what some poster who follow twitter feeds on here have said.. It seems his father is over the moon he's becoming a Wire.

I hope he does too. He sounds very bitter when he's talking about Wigan.

| It'll be a great move for him and I expect to see him kick on. He makes too many errors but there's no doubt he can play. He's a big athlete and can certainly cause teams plenty of problems.
It'll add a bit of spice to our games next year which is always good.

| Well if my memory serves my right, I'm sure I'll be corrected if it hasn't, he was the fallguy, forfeited by the Pies to get their hands on Larne Patrick, and they had just got Bateman, so perhaps he feels let down and paid the price because of Ben Flower.
It's not as if his form was shaat before he got injured, bringing back Joel Tomkins must have sealed his exit more perminatly than what he was meant to believe.
Put it this way he's developed into a great backrower although not as good as Bateman, he's a shaat load better than Joel Tomkins.
I think we have fell on our feet with JH, Ben flower's punch was probably the best terrible act of sportsmanship our club had ever benefited from.

Just looked and he's only made 15 handling errors this season (4 came against Wakefield), most of the time he doesn't make a handling error.
When I've watched him he does run quick and strong, he's also 7th in the top tackler count so he works hard in that department too.

Believe me from somebody who's watched both and like to think I give pretty balanced opinions-Jack Hughes isn't in Joel Tomkins class but he could be in time if he continues to develop.
He was behind four better players at Wigan and he's admitted it himself. He's young though and he's already improved from playing a full season at Huddersfield.

Although J Tomkins is not my fav player by any means he is a better player than Hughes, but then given his age and experience he should be. If JH can get to that level then he will have done well, wherever he plays.

| The problem with Hughes is that his passing and decision making is very poor and has been since he was 16. I thought it was something that could have been coached out of him and MAYBE it can. It's a similar problem that Russell had and still has. Both are very good athletes, whether they will ever be very good rugby players remains to be seen.

| Joel Tomkins and the word class don't go together which ever way it's written.

| Always interesting to get an opinion on players from a Wigan perspective. Rogues cannot overcome his natural Wigan bias and usually points a negative viewpoint rather than a positive not that I am dismissing his view as I have not seen enough of the player - however, passing and decision making are not key features of Ben Westwood's game either so am not too concerned.
I always take note of Nicky Kiss' posts on the other hand who genuinely does have balanced opinions and well considered rugby knowledge.
