| Quote: Stu M "Where would you place French in terms of all time Wigan players? I can't imagine anyone in front of Hanley but what about the others? Tomkins obviously springs to mind but depending on how long French stays and his overall impact he has to be up there in conversations surely?
I get its different eras etc
Obviously the likes of Gene Miles and Renouf, Kenny etc were world class but didn't stay as long so didn't play as many games.'"
I was born in 91, so that disqualifies me from having decent memories of lots of our modern-ish era greats.
But the only back who I'm struggling to put him ahead of in my time is prime Sam Tomkins. Even then I think there's an argument that Tomkins was playing consistently for a dominant team, whereas French has done it in much more average Wigan teams until the last couple of years.
We'll wait and see how long he's here for and how long he keeps at this level. But if he sees out his current contract he'll have given us basically his entire career, and when you talk about that sort of contribution and the standard of rugby he consistently delivers, I think you're in all time great territory. And that takes some doing at Wigan.

| Quote: Big Steve "Important to recognise the approach the club took with Bevan, which was a little contentious at the time where they would allow him a longer off season break, pre-season training back in Australia, time off to be with his family, involving his Uncle and brother - and not just for this years GF.
It's that longer term view the club now have on how to treat players and invest in both them and their families that create this special group. The role of Rads in this shouldn't go unnoticed - he's had his critics in the past but I can't see a better run club and I haven't seen Wigan run this well since i've been watching them in the 80's.'"
100% agree, at times we have criticised Rads but he has stuck at it, learned and applied that knowledge - now its paying dividends.
On Bevan, top 3 best for sure after this weekend. Before, my son and I were saying that he hadn't delivered a killer performance in a final and now he has. He has done everything else and with a casual genius that makes us take him for granted, no more!!!

Get what you mean but Bevan scored a killer try in at Wembley that sickened Wire off. He's a yard offside away from having scored the winners in all three finals this season.

I have a feeling he’ll be off home at the end of next year. If he does it would be with my best wishes and hopefully a nice transfer fee. I reckon that would be perfect timing for Farrimond to take his place.
