Oh what might have been. We ended up with an opportunist signing of Goodwin due to financial issues at Leigh, and although BG hasn't let us down, PH disappearing back home was a massive disappointment.

Couldn't really blame him. He was playing against teams which were way below his skill level, he had Matty Russell as his winger and Agar as his coach. I'd go back to the NRL an all.

Luther plays in London.

Yeah i'd say this is his debut, London are no pushovers but it's the best game he could start in to find his feet i think

I'm pretty confident he'll be an RL international in his first full season.

So as we enter the year of Burrell's first ashes series appearance, any signs of him being in the reckoning for Wire's first XVII?

Luther had a good outing last night, looking much more an rl player than when he arrived . Scored a good try, good running in the game & snaffled the ball in a one on one tackle.

Interesting - am intrigued to see how he gets on this year with a proper off-season. Will he play on Thursday do you think?

Re: Luther Burrell : Fri Jan 24, 2020 3:41 pm  

I think definitely worth a bench spot to cover centre & forwards.

I think not, King and Gelling for me.

Interesting to see from the highlights that king has been switched to left centre.

Re: Luther Burrell : Fri Jan 24, 2020 4:21 pm  

I've seen Gelling play mostly on the right for Wigan, which may be the reason why.
