I'd keep an eye on St.Helens lad Liam Carberry challenging McIlorum at Wigan in the long term. Outstanding prospect.

Apart from the England U18 scrum half of 18 months ago and both England U16 half backs from last year.
Then of course there's Joe Mellor who ran Gaskell, Lomax and Wheeler ragged until his bad knee injury at the start of 2010. He's just scored tonight at Bradford in the U20 btw.

Established cover then

Bloody daft claim. It seems that Pat Richards is now better than Frano Botica as well. Wane doesn't half mouth off. Mind you, he's not the brightest bulb in the lamp shop.

He certainly is, and a better prospect than Logan Tomkins IMO. But as you all know I like Mickey Mac.

Do you think he is?
How much did you see of Botica?

to be fair richards is better, botica was of a time when Wigan could afford to keep a kicker in the side because the other 12 players were so good. Richards is one of the best wingers in the league without his kicking

I saw frano botica play when I was growing up and IMO pat Richards is twice the player frano botica was.
