Out for the rest of the season with a ruptured Achilles’ tendon . Ouch !

Cue Wire asking for salary cap dispensation a la Luke Gale.
Either Patton at 7 for the season or Mamo at fullback and Ratchford in the halves. I doubt they’ll be able to sign a scrum half now.
I'd guess that's his career ended, I think he said he was retiring at the end of the season. Such a shame, one of my favourite players and one of the only ones I think Wigan made a mistake in letting go.
Real nasty one that. It can be a cruel sport at times.
Best of luck to him.

That’s sad - as people have said, you’d have to suspect that that’s his playing days over. A talented player and competitor and, as Rogues said, I was surprised when Wigan let him go.
Sad end to his career, if that's the case. No professional should end the game this way, unfortunately in a contact sport, that's the nature of the beast. I wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he is able to play on in the future.
I used to play with kev when it was town team. He played for St Helens but he was signed for wigan. It was good to see someone from my age group who I played with go on to make it professionally. He's a good lad and it's a real shame to see him bow out like that if it's as bad as being reported.
Its been a pretty cruel off season for a few players!
