Could be true as there isn't a specific time mentioned it doesn't say "Turned down this week" just that we are one of several Super League clubs who looked into bringing him back. Entirely possible we explored signing him in say June before we had decided to extend Miski's deal and Grace's one year deal at Racing was expiring.

I’d be amazed if there were any truth in it, especially given he has still not played a game since his last Saints game due to a recurrence of his injury.

Yeah, BS I would say, at best we may have enquired earlier this year before we tied Miski down for next year.

Apart from which, he's not really a Wigan style winger anyway. Doubt there's much in that article beyond click bait.

I wonder which club Cade Cust will end up at - hope his next move works out. His attitude since coming to Wigan (particularly when he's been out of the team) has been outstanding.

It’s classic Dan too.

He confirms absolutely nothing other than what everyone else has said, it isn’t just a rumour, things are happening he may or may not sign.

If he is coming this will have been rapped up long before now.

Can’t imagine Saracens will be sat there letting him take his time and go into the new season which I think already is underway without any idea if their prized asset and most high profile player was going to be with them for the 23/24 season.

I am now starting to think it will happen, it just seems like the timing is perfect for it for both Wigan and the player himself.

I believe that a deal for Farrell has been agreed with some commercials to be resolved by Farrell’s agent.

Eseh confirmed.

Very good signing with a view to 2025 in particular.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 23, 2023 6:08 pm  

Anything in the rumour Eseh will return to Trinity on a year long loan?

I’m not sure that’s a rumour.

It’s something I speculated on when we were initially linked with him.

I do except him to go on loan for a good bit of 2024 but with the changes at Trinity today of coach and chairman relationships may not be as strong as they were with the previous coach particularly.

Eseh is a terrific signing for you.
Seen as you have so many forwards do you think you can lend us Harvie Hill or Eseh or Nsemba please?
Be happier to have Walters though

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 23, 2023 6:21 pm  

I think there’s every chance Hill and Eseh go on loan as a minimum.
