I think it depends on priorities. Wigan can't help themselves. They have to buy success. It would be a betrayal of their roots to do otherwise. Meanwhile, our chairman has publically expressed a hope to have local lads play for Saints and a preference where that isn't possible for British players. Shenton could be a dud or he could be a real find. We will no doubt find out in the fullness of time. Meanwhile, we have recruited Josh Perry, and he's no softie. Apparently we also recruited Sia Soliola but last time I saw him he disappeared into the fog ...
how can we even poke fun at wigan recruiting overseas players, when in the same paragraph you point out we've signed perry and soliola? Wigan to be fair will have 4 off the cap and 3 on, so they're moving in the right direction, as are we. Its the likes of Hull Kr who we should be mocking!
