    I thought so. You have got to admire Offiah & Sean Edwards as well for taking so much stick in those days and keep coming back for more. I don't know if you remember a pre-season promo game in America between Wigan & Warrington back in the day but at the time I went to school with a warrington forward who told me all the Warrington players chucked some money into a pot & the first one to take Edwards out of the game got the lot, brutal.

    I couldn't quite make it out due to Trevor Hunt half squealing, half crying with delight. On a Wigan love in with Dearden that bloke.

    People are too quick to judge. Sandow joined Wire mid season last time around and looked shocking. Been class this year. I'll judge him at the end of next season.

    What has Sandow got to do with this thread. The topic is FPN, a player we were interested in but rejected and I think, next year, we'll regret that decision.

    Been getting better and better every week. Defensively he has been superb the last few weeks, if he can get his fitness to the levels where he carries it like he did in 2013/2014 he will be a top signing

    Err that was the point he was making. FPN and Sandow both signed mid-season, both rubbish and written off by most but Sandow has been ace this year. Not sure why it's a problem to compare those situations on this thread - particularly when FPN played so little rugby before he came over.

    That being said, even if he does do ok next year, I still don't think we'll regret being tied into the longer contract he wanted.
