Very good question. I wouldn't say so on last season's evidence, but then again I imagine Junior would've found it easier to come into our team this year than Nicholson is finding it at Wire.

Despite how good our pack is looking for next year, I'm sure Nicholson is going to go on and have a great career and I still wish he was at Wigan.

No but I’d like them both tbh. Nicholson surely regrets that decision. I’m pretty confident he’d have got first crack at securing a spot this season in the absence of KPP and Isa and he’d likely be playing in a Grand Final on Saturday. They’ll be very different types of players in time Nicholson and Nsemba but both should have fantastic careers.

I've no doubt they'll both excel at Super League level at minimum. In Faz we've had the best all round back rower in the league for the last decade - huge work rate, basics to an unparalleled standard, and a top strike runner all in one. Nicolson will be a top player no doubt, but Nsemba 100% is more exciting (in the Betts / Hock mould). V's Salford a few weeks back he put on one of the biggest shots I've seen for ages from a kick off on Jack Ormondroyd...big lad already and seems to have the athleticism to go with it.
