Are you looking for some kind of announcement?

People talking about Lachlan Lam but Adrian has already said that if Lachlan comes he will only be here for a year. That doesn’t help with continuity again, unless Edwards gets to pick someone to sign for us for when he starts.

Smith and Green waiting in the wings?

Do you think they’ll be ready come 2020? Hearing good things on both but we may just need somebody to plug a gap for a year or two around then to give them chance to come through. That’s assuming Williams stays as well because if he goes then we’ll probably need two players aside from the year of Lam between now and the start of 2020.

Matty and Blake will be too old by then

Shorrocks and Woods and Hampshire before them were also waiting in the wings. I like the young wiganers as much as anyone, but they don’t always develop to be the players we expect.
