Can’t say I have paid much attention to him or he has particularly stood out when I have seen him play but Leeds fans seem up in arms that he’s not a regular in their 17 and that he might potentially leave.

If he is looking for more game time then Wigan may not be the place for him.

Here is a list of players off contract at the end of the season. Warning, please treat it with caution as it is incorrect. For example, Morgan Smithies is not off contract!

Are you sure? He signed a 4 year contract in 2019.

According to IFL he is not off contract at the end of the season. I hope he is not telling me lies.

Exactly…
2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 = 4 years

I saw this - I'm sure a lot of people would shudder at the idea but there's not exactly a ton of available English forwards out there. Would completely depend on whether he was fit/healthy and whether he was willing to come on a short term basis.

It's unbelievable that he ever even passed a medical with us, not to mention his mental state at the time - you have to wonder what was going on with KR and the medical staff and whether you could trust they will make the right decision again?

It wasn’t the staff at Wigan who undertook the medical, it was done in Australia.
