That's some team, 2024 is going to be exciting!
I still think we missed a trick not converting Powell into a 13 after Lockers retired, he has all the essentials needed for that role. His handling skills may be somewhat average for a back, but significantly better than what you get from most lose forwards, great engine, can tackle all night, can put in the occasional kick (albeit normally on the 3rd tackle when there's no need ) Made for 13.

Isn't that what Leeming kicked off about at Leeds though? That being said, has anyone read the interview he's done with the Titans? He makes a point about saying he's the 80mins he's got as well as the 5 min stints too.
Hopefully he's changed his tune re not being a starter?'"
One thing I think we can be confident on - if Peet gets any attitude from Leeming regarding minutes he'll be heading through the exit door pretty quickly. He won't put up with any threat to the team culture.
Potentially O'Neill and Leeming could be a very good combo for Wigan but it would likely work best with Leeming coming off the bench. There's also Tom Forber waiting in the wings.

100% and like NK said, I'm sure those conversations will have been had. If we're going well, I'm sure it won't be an issue.

I’m surprised that Wigan signed Leeming, I thought we should have been promoting Forber.

It’s an interesting one.
I personally don’t think Forber is ready to be a first team regular yet but I think if he continues to be developed he may be ready in 2 years, but we will still have Leeming and O’Neil.
Forber is another that needs to be on loan to a SL club preferably.

I see the logic in his signing but for me its 2 years too long. 2 years with an option for another in the clubs favour would have been a smarter move. If he wouldnt accept that then he could have gone elsewhere
