I can’t think of any other saints player who has divided opinion so much. My take is that he always gave 100% despite his limited stature. He always comes across, like Sinfield, very well and I will be sad to see him go. My daughters especially so as he always had plenty of time for a chat and a photo with them

Something that has always narked me is Saints class him as one of there academy products when he played I think about 20 odd times in our first team he might end up coming back but I think he should retire he’s had a great career

John Wilkin would be a 100% improvement on Barrie McDermott, Terence O'Connor and Phillip Clarke. He could quote at least Yeats if not Shakespeare during the commentary.
Toulouse for Championship in 2017, Super League in 2021!
Avignon for Championship in 2021, Super League in 2022!
I'll always remember Wilkin for spitting the dummy over Sky allowing cameras into the HT dressing rooms at Old Trafford, when outgoing coach Daniel Anderson gave Saints the rounds of the kitchen.
As a player he's always seemed a bit of a show-pony who resorts to a bit of cheap thuggery when things don't go his way.
