Think he is great. Obviously very aware and savvy, deceptively fast and more than happy for him to stay as long as he wishes. There will still be opportunities for the likes of Rocky Hampshire and what better role model could a young player have who wants to become a first class full back

Been my favourite player to watch this season. He could genuinely make a break at any time out of nothing, and he is still bloody fast, actually caught escare yesterday who is rapid.

When we were after him I was not keen on signing a player with his injury record but once he arrived there was no point worrying about that and I was amazed at the stick he got in the Hudds game where I thought he was one of our better players.

He is a pleasure to watch. He has that "something" about him that elevates him above the hard working, give it 11O% good pro player type.

I'd be very disappointed if we didn't sign him up for another season.

He has been a great signing, helps immensely off the pitch too according to Wane. There was never a doubt over his ability only whether he would settle previously being a 1 club man. Fortunately his family has settled too and if you believe recent reports he is looking to stay. I'd certainly give him another year. Hampshire has been unlucky with injuries at times when he would have played and IMO needs another year if being gradually introduced.

Looks like we are keeping Mr Bowen for another year"Phil Wilkinson
Bowen's brilliance drags Wigan back level, great acceleration. I reported this week he's accepted one-year extension. 10-10ktc #slcatwig'"

Ugh, another one of this seasons 12 non-acadamy players that will be here next year!

It's a disgrace, how can we win anything with non academy players in the squad

Wane confirmed in the after match press conference on Saturday that "the worst fullback I've ever seen play for Wigan" had taken up his option to stay another year. Good stuff.

Brilliant news. Well done Wane and Leneghan!

Ryan Hampshire will have another season learning from him is Wanes most pleasing comment.

Saints fans better scrub his name off their team sheets for next year.
