Greenwood is a big lad but he is distinctly soft and often goes off injured. Cant see him staying at Wigan beyond this season tbh

We have better juniors to call on so imo he is surplus to requirements

Pretty pleased with this. Seems like it’s almost a 2 month trial to see if he’d be any use in the middle. But agree he’s also better than most our BR options. If this pulls off, be interesting to see if we go for field. Him and gale in the halves could be dynamic

Makes you think Ward won't be returning anytime soon.

Probably not the case but its a signing that makes you concerned theres something bigger with ward. Mellor, ward, martin, donaldson, greenwood, A & L sutcliffe, thats a lot of potential 2nd rows with prop being the priority, strange one.

I agree. On the face of it we shouldn't need this signing as we have plenty of 2nd rows (greenwood is never ever a prop). The two months suggests he is covering someone which must be ward. I do worry for the lad.

Sounds like Ward struggling getting over the concussion. Unfortunately he just seems to take forever to recover from injuries. Fingers crossed hes good

That's how it works.

Pretty sure it was spoken about before the England knights game on Full Eighty minutes ......

This is a better signing in the squad filler stakes than the likes of Wellington boot and Donaldson.

If Greenwood had Donaldsons heart and bottle, he would be in the Adrien Morley mould or a Gareth Ellis, he’s not even a Carl Ablett.
I'm not impressed at all, people on here where critical of us not signing him first instead of Wigan, but done nothing there and cannot get in side/not wanted. I will be happy to be proved wrong, could be a shrewd mother be on a player with a point to prove, but see nothing more than Similar ilk to Wellington Albert, Jordan Thompson. For once Think we have better in the reserves in A Sutcliffe, Walters, Mustapha, give then a few 20 minutes in Super league to fill the gaps.
