See my edit,
yes he was a fantastic player, captained England school boys in Union and League (from memory) and to be honest Sam's showing all the signs of becoming one as well. Obviously you can't compare the two directly till you've seen Sam develop throughout his career.

He was, but not in his 1st season.
Anyway, I'm sure you lot were part of the "Edwards, Most Overated Player Ever!" Brigade!
Changed your tune when it suits.

Yeah Widnes far outclassed us that day, was great when Joe came home two seasons later. The Shaun that you're comparing to les, started to come into his own in the 86/87 season when we signed Andy Gregory, and Hanley was absolutely magical.

And I could have been a good un in that team! And I was only 16
Point is at the same age they were Bother VERY GOOD players!
Will Sam go on to be as good as Shaun?
Watch this space for the Next 10/12 years and we'll see!

Well that's the point isn't it. In fact what a pointless thread.

42648.jpg We can hold our heads up high around town. Not for us the ignomony of having once supported United, Liverpool or Everton and then shamelessly casting our previous loyalties aside for a 2 bit fly-be-night outfit with no history or standing in the town. Not for us having to swear blind that we never supported another club, not for us having to swear blind that we watched our club pre-JJB.
We are Wigan Rugby League. Established 1872. The town's true club. Ancient and Loyal.

| He is very similar to Edwards same attitude and passion but sam is his own man and lets compare in a few years and enjoy that we have a fantastic player on our hands. Edwards was brilliant maybe sam is the next brilliant player after Edwards time will tell!!! COME ON WIGAN!!!
