He and Bowes must surely be the 2 youngest hookers playing SL this weekend.

Good to see someone coming in

He has all the potential to be a very special 9.

On core skills and hooking play he is the most talented one at Wigan but 3rd in the pecking order due to age and experience.

I said to my mate a few weeks ago we should be looking to bring him in. If he adapts to SL quickly he could be a very good pick up for us, the risk obviously is he is untested at this level but he’s too good to be playing age group or championship rugby.

Any relation to Saints Legend Paul Forber?

Lad will be busting a gut to impress and show he is ready. Good move.

Glad to see the club are active in finding reinforcements. I really rate Bowes but to expect him to do 80mins is a big ask.

Wonder if Mash got him on mates rates from his old pal Peets

I think there is some good mileage in that relationship.

They have another very good junior player in Junior Nsemba who is a big athletic strike second row another been going very well in the Chsmpionship but not quite able to crack the first team just yet.

I expect Wigan to recruit a secondrow mid season after not replacing Bateman and when they do I think we could/should move for him.

We have good 2nd rowers in law and mearns why develop other clubs youngsters,nsemba who i have seen on more than and is good very good and will have a future at wigan so dont see the point i developing him for them ala senior.although the stupid rules the rfl (or i assume the rfl)have set in regards pay does make it harder to blood our own youngsters

There's Dane Windrow as well who is desperate for a chance.

Yes forgot about dane
