Well here's my opinion.

I've never seen him play, ever.

But I can't bear the thought of starting the season with Atkins and Evans at centre.

So I hope to god that we do sign him, he can't be any worse.

I've just seen his Twitter account he loves the imaginary being in the Sky doesnt he.... goodness me....

not sure how he'll react when we sing the famous Wigan Rugby went to Rome song....

Lol. Indeed.
Bless you my child.

Steady on now Rubber ... I can see you're beginning to enjoy your new freedom since you've been outed ... if you get what I mean. Keep the faith!

Wow i've just watch 3 highlight videos of him on Youtube and i don't know who said it but they're right, he's not that fast at all. Centres out pacing him second rowers catching up to him when he makes a break, and 99% of his tries are simply him him being out wide with nobody marking him and him running 10 metres in a straight line and falling over the line. We already have that in Tom Lineham, fingers crossed this is just a rumour and we actually sign Jorge Taufua a lot faster, a lot stronger and more explosive.

He's better than Henry Fa'afili, and that guy couldn't stop scoring.

Fa'afili had Gleeson inside him....... unfortunately none of our centres have anywhere near his skill level.

Fa'afili, to.his credit, had a decent jump and catch.

i was hoping the Jorge Taufua rumour was true to be honest, but anyone would be an improvement

and yes before you all start i have played rugby world cup 95 on the mega drive so i know what I'm talking about

Is he any better than that slow overweight 30 something Aussie that came here for a holiday* ?

Think his name was Chris Hicks.....


(*as a previous Wires forum assumed when he signed).

Whenever I've watched the NRL on premiersports Kevin Naiqama has played centre, I've never seen him play on the wing. And he looks quick enough to me.

I hadn't heard of Chris Hicks before we signed him but from memory those that had said he was a speedster. ..One of the eels fastest...

And if he was overweight. ...how did we ever sign Solomona. ..

Chris Hicks was a brilliant signing & it was a ridiculous decision to tear his contract up in favour of giving J.Monaghan a job with his bro.

As for Henry Fa'afilli he also had a lot of assistance from the boot of Lee Briers.

As for recent years,for whatever reason, our player recruitment policy has generally been substandard.
